I got the TSV tree and candles from Slatkin. I’m partial to CIJ bc I’ve celebrated it since I was a kid. But…

I just had to mute my TV bc KIRSTEN keeps SHOUTING. Like full on shouting and I’m only on my first cup of coffee.

Looking forward to watching during this heat wave -just hoping for no chewing with food and talking at the same time.

Merry CIJ everyone!

OP seems to not be in a happy mood this morning.  Just an observation.....

Yet ANOTHER weekend of xmass junk on the air....well at least I won't waste so much time watching or checking the Q this weekend.  I am one of those who only likes Xmass in December...not in the heat of summer!!


At least there's no screaming over vacuums......YET! Smiley Wink    /s

🎄  Something is definitely missing this year. The fun, the sparkle, the teamwork?

 

I just tuned in, SMQ is on. Why is Kersten shouting so loud? Then Alberti shouts over her, and Chad Johnson is just standing there holding a wreath, with a big smirk on his face. While the other two compete for air time, Chad can barely get a word in.

 

Hosts can be a real deal breaker for me when deciding whether or not to watch.

 

🙁 Now I know how Charlie Brown felt . . . .

I am really saving money by not buying on QVC now--especially with the Christmas in July overkill and the high prices on everything else.  I went into a Kiirklands this week and was flabbergasted to see the whole store in fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving stuff.  I guess next week it'll be Christmas there as well!  Yes, I realize the fall stuff is probably okay but the whole store?!  I'm sure some people with big families (which we don't have) find early Christmas shopping to be good though.  But lately all the stuff shown is just blah to me and I've tuned out more than ever.  Just my two cents of course....

I have also enjoyed Christmas in July shopping with QVC for a long time. It's something different to watch in sweltering summer and gives customers a chance to get a jump on holiday shopping if they so choose. And being able to make returns on the items through Jan. 31st is a big plus!

 

What I don't like is when people use Xmas, or in this case, Xmass, as a shortened version for Christmas. I'm familiar with the origin of the abbreviation and certainly understand it is used "commonly" by many. But I don't get the point. Are they just too lazy to type out five extra letters...very important letters at that!

 

I will not be celebrating "Xmass" in any season or at any time of the year. But I will celebrate Christmas wholeheartedly later on in December and enjoy Christmas in July programming at this time of the year with QVC....hopefully for many more years to come!

LOL, I channel surfed and saw Kerstin wolfing down some kind of candied nuts? Considering I have seen her Insta account and she fasts most of the time and rarely eats, I thought how disingenuous trying to sell something she condemns eating in her own life.🙄

🤗 I believe Kerstin has a secret stash of wine and all things chocolate hidden in the attic.

@Trinity11 its Kirsten's job to sell items. I have to do things in my job that i dont subscribe to in my personal life all the time...buts its my job.
