Q Talk

$65 for a dozen peaches? $32 for deodorant? And you wonder why numbers are repeatedly down??

  $65 peaches, yea  really free shipping

Q's prices are always higher but people still buy. I rarely purchase from Q and when I do it is usually when they have philosophy specials.  However I have been purchasing from TJmaxx.

Peaches, long synonymous with summer, cost more at the grocery store this season — sometimes by 25 to 50%, according to peach producers and trade organizations. That’s because un-peachy weather has led to a shortage of the fruit in places like Georgia, South Carolina and Illinois.

It has been all over the news for a while now.  Obviously the Q price is higher than going to the grocery store due to the shipping costs involved.

I only purchase if it's on clearance under $25. Then I only pay cash. I closed my Q card and paid off. I'm pretty much done with the Q after 30 years

O yeah, blame it on the weather. It's ALL corporate GREED. Simply read what CEOs and share holders are making.

I do not believe I have had a good tasting fresh peach since I was a child. The ones in the stores do not even have a fragrance.

As far as the prices on QVC , occasionally I se a good clearance price . I do not watch shows of what used to be my never miss ones-- SG and Denim & Co. I just do not need a $50, tank top or T shirt. I cannot listen to SG squealing about a $3.-$5. markdown. I do still like these --but!!!

I feel like 'channeling' the old Sanford & Son tv show for those who remember or have seen reruns--Sanford(Redd Fox) would be shocked by something,pat his chest as though having a heart attack and say "Elizabeth ( his beloved dead wife) I am coming to you."

For a good laugh, take a stroll over to the deodorant section 😂.  A better set can be had for $39!!!!!  A fool and their money.....
