Got email from the Q today.  Said they missed me..I thought really? Wow after the thousands I spent last xmas I thought great maybe they are sending me a coupon or something? Nope...Look, I believe anyone that spends alot at the Q should be rewarded in some small way?  The Q misses me because I got over my addiction with them..Realized I could buy alot of products eleswhere much cheaper,,, I am free now. No more 800.00 a month easy pays!!!!! I way over did it..Its easy to get sucked in with the easy pay offers...NO MORE..I am in the clear..I'm a free bird flying high and never again to be weighed down by the sale pitches.. WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE END UP IN ALOT OF FINANICAL PROBLEMS DUE TO THE WEAKNESS WE CAN HAVE WATCHING THE Q..?

IF I DO PURCHASE FROM THE Q IT WILL ONLY BE ONE EASY PAY A MONTH FROM NOW ON..

FOOD ADDICTIONS, DRUGS, BOOZE AND THAN THERES THE Q...

A client of mine, mom passed away a few years ago from cancer.. She was in her 70's .

When they went to clean out her home to sell she said there was tons of packages from QVC unopened!

clearly they want to suck you in with easy pay or flex pays in the case of HSN.  That is all you hear during the presentations.  THey almost never speak the price, just the easy pay amount.  I never do easy pay.  My philosophy is only buy if can afford it now.  Otherwise save for it.  Good for you getting out from under the spell.  It is an evil spell.

@lyn61 - to me it sounds like you should just go cold turkey - it's too easy to get sucked back in - shop your local stores - you'll save a ton of money.  As my parents used to say, if you can't pay cash (pay in full), you don't need it.

I think that some people are addicted to shopping, it fills a void in their life. Of course it isn't  QVC' or any other reailler's fault. However home shopping makes it very easy to buy, so if you have that particular weakness, maybe you should  watch something else.

$800 worth of Easy Pays per month is ... not QVC's issue in any way. It's a shopaholic issue, period.

The rant reminds me of Lady Macbeth -  I didn't much sympathize with her either.

 

When it's your own fault, it's your own fault.  Seems as if we're living in a world where the players have pretty much forgotten the lessons they should have learned in kindergarten!
