I just happened to take a quick look.....$99 for a cooked chicken? Looked like chicken parts sealed up flat. Outrageous!

@MoJoV   Convenient maybe to have food arrive at your door, but besides it being very expensive, we're only two poeople! This is the same reason we stopped shopping at SAMS/Costco.

I don't like the gourmet cooking shows.  Seems they have taken over the programming for quite awhile now.  Years ago they were never on this often and for this many hours, that's how I recall it anyway.

I love the food shows, and I do buy some things.  Was so tempted to buy the cookies (they are delicious), but didn't buy yesterday.  I eat too many of them and don't need them!

 

I was shocked at the price of the item below.  These are tiny little things - and the price is outrageous.  This is an example of not good food pricing.

I saw the cornbread batter from Carla Hall, and it's ONLY $60 for 5 1 lb packages of cornbread batter mix. LOL!!! Make sure you order MULTIPLES.

@RespectLife   Yes, we have a large standing freezer in the garage. It seemed I filled it and kept meats, etc. way too long since it was jammed full. Now I try to purchase much less.

I would rather watch seven hours of food than 24 hours of Christmas in July.  I can only handle so many toys and gift wrappings in one day.

You know what my theory is?  The food ships from the food companies not from a QVC warehouse. This way QVC does not have to worry about storing things in warehouses and that would save them money
