I never get any cash or coupon offers over there.

Spend money there, too. Think one time.

@SharkE - Ditto for me.  No coupons or Ka$h.  Didn't make any difference the few times I've contacted HSN's CS about it.

The last one said "We don't have beaucoup coupons!"  I told her that's not what I hear from other shoppers who are always getting them.  She didn't have any explanation why.

Not to mention that you can find codes on coupon sites, but then they never work.  At least not on my account.

The HSN Forum is a mere shadow of what it was in its heyday.  Days and days and days of nothing.

However, you can access the Forum from the HSN app, which differentiates it from QVC!

(And I receive a 20% off coupon at least monthly!)

@They Call Me MR Wilkes - I wish you could tell the rest of us your secret!  (For instance, do you have the HSN credit card?)

See my post above.  I haven't had a coupon from HSN in literally years, despite still shopping there.

@Bellajay.  For sure HSN has some good hosts but rarely anything I want to buy.  They're heavy on beauty items, which I don't buy on  TV, and electronics.  Most of their clothing looks very cheap.

Other than buying an occasional pair of DG2 jeans, i don't go there much.

Interesting, QVC is horrible, HSN is amazing and yet, although I do little to keep up with shopping channel news other than reading here, I looked it up and HSN is STILL #2?

Maybe they're like AVIS...."We're #2 but we try harder." Anybody remember that one?

Unfortunately AVIS is now #3. Go figure.

But hey, top 3 is still very good.

@Venezia Yes HSN card holders get promos about once a month, but supposedly the Q card works over there and vice versa. So how does one provide offers and the other does not?  BUT I will say this, HSN has random promos a few times a month for everyone to use, it shows up on the website front page, for "x" % off an item, etc.  Q never has done that as long as I have been watching over 15 yrs. For crying out loud they barely have free shipping days any more.

I have no HSN card.

I have no QVC card.

I have no Qurate card of any sort.

And yet I receive a one-time 20% off offer frequently,  at least once a month.

Why, I have no idea, but I welcome them.

I am finding I tune in to HSN more often than QVC as well. I think I appreciate the way they sell, because I buy more often as well. Especially when Chef Curtis Stone is on!! Not sure if it is product or the chef! LOL!!

[SoCal Bred]

He holds my attention as well😊 @We rescue cats, lol.....

I tend to get VIP discounts on thursdays.  It is different every week.

@ajsidney12 - I've even tried to use codes that I've seen show up on the top banner of HSN's site with no luck!

For whatever reason, nothing is ever "associated" with my account or "not a valid code", even when it's shown on their website.  It's not like I ever defaulted on a payment or returned excessively.  Quite the opposite; I always pay in full (no EZpays) and have maybe returned 3 things over the years?

As I said, even the CS reps I've spoken to can't explain it.  I've even tried switching my email to a different one, in case somehow I've ended up on a blacklist.  Nope, no luck.  I'm clearly not a member of the secret society.

I've given up trying and only order now, if it's something I want and they're the "only game in town".
