Just saw  that May 31, Q2 will have TWO Christmas show.s....

Early warning in case you'll be needing a second mortgage for batteries....dont' say I didn't warn you!!!

Looks like these shows will be unloading last year's stuff before the real push for Christmas in July starts in...

JUNE!!! 

Wonder if they'll drop the price on THIS beauty....I want six for my gift closet.....

Oh my goodness you are right.  I do need a second mortgage for batteries.  Bwah ahahahahahahahahaha   I just started packing away a bunch of candles. I am sick of buying batteries.

ATTENTION K-MART SHOPPERS===OOPS I MEAN QVC SHOPPERS.  There will be no blue light specials this year.

I knew the CIJ complaining was going to start soon...geez . I did understand the May shows coming, but it does make sense that they do want to clear old inventory. However, they should have had a large clearance in January. They did a show or two, but they could have done more to get rid of their stock of old well before they bring in the new.

I enjoy CIJ, not for hundreds of purchases, but for ideas.  BUT......

@Othereeeen  you are quite funny.  You always give me a laugh.  The gift closet (yes, I have a shelf).  One year, one of the hosts actually said she would like to gift a favorite teacher a D&B handbag.  Get a few for the gift closet.  🤣

I avoid Christmas shows, music, and movies. I'd be happy if we went from black Friday to New Year's Day.

I do enjoy getting together with family and Christmas Mass. But that's it.

Just to add another twist to this post, when I had visited the QVC outlet a few weeks ago, they had TONS of Christmas stuff from last year's shows.  I didn't see one person buying any of it, much less even looking at it,  as it was displayed in the rear section of the store.

@ciao_bella 

Dont' worry....they're dragging it all back to "the warehouse" to be put on air again in the next few weeks...

Gotta wring every drop out of that hokey stuff before this year's cornball stuff rolls in...

If you follow a tractor trailer down the PA Turnpike, and it's leaving a trail of swirling glitter, you'll know where it's headed!!!

If I see that snow globe thing from my first post one more time lined up on a table with Valerie's fluttering hands hovering over it THIS year, I will go insane.

It seems like EVERY time I switch to the Q from May to December during comm. breaks in other programs...there it is!!!!

It started over 60 bucks, now reduced to 25....if they bring it down to 4.00 and THEY pay the tax and to ship it to me....I still wouldn't!!!!

Serious question or thought...

I do not watch Q2 or 3 or any other qvc channel but the main one, and the main one I watch sparingly.  But will be watching when CIJ comes on.  Nice change from the boring programing the Q usually shows.
