Today's Special Value

[Group 5 minus 1]

Is there anywhere on the QVC web site that I can find a list of TSVs for the month of August?

Thank you

You can go to the Program Guide and check the Midnight ET hour for the brand or category of the TSV.

If there is such a list, I have never found it.  

Would be nice.

No, TSVs are a well-kept secret until presented.

Blue Skies for Me is posting QVC monthly lists again.

@Icegoddess Blue Skies no longer gives us a heads up for the actual TSV's. Basically, this site just tells us the program guide that can also be obtained here, on QVC.com.

Hopefully some day Blue Skies will have access and will post the actual TSV's. It was kind of fun knowing a little in advance.

@cjm61 I thought OP was just wanting a general list.  Blue Skies stopped doing it for awhile, but recently started posting it again.  I don't think I've ever seen an entire month that gave exactly what all the items would be .

@Icegoddess I read the OP as wanting "to find a list of TSV's" not the list of shows. So, I'm not sure I was correct.

Yes, Blue Skies used to post the TSV's ahead of time. Sometimes it would be several weeks ahead and sometimes just a day or two. But, somehow she was always able to post what the TSV would be prior to the midnight air time for both HSN and QVC.

She would know the item specifics so you would know exactly what the item would be, not just what the hour show was titled.

@cjm61 Apparently QVC pays her to do that.  Before she stopped, there were some complaints about how QVC was not sending the check. That may have been about the time QVC started making a big secret about it.   I really rarely ever looked at the list but occasionally would scan it to see if there was a category of interest.  

I don't know why they want it to be a big secret.  I would think knowing ahead of time might generate more interest. The pre-sales is what bothered me if they weren't going to have enough to go around (sizes, colors, etc.) at midnight.

@Icegoddess I will never begin to understand the reasoning behind many decisions made by QVC. But, with my retail experience I believe they find by keeping the TSV a "secret", this leads to more people going to their website.

Many people will go to QVC.com every day to see what the TSV will be. (Yes, I know, many here don't but those are not the customers QVC is targeting). In doing so, they must be aware that people will browse the site as well. Hence, why the main page may seem cluttered, they are trying to attract attention to as many customers as possible.

I equate this to the grocery store layout. The most popular items are placed in the back of the store so that we HAVE to walk down the entire aisle. It must be successful otherwise this method would not be used. 

I have no problem with the surprise TSV's, I was used to it for so many years. However, I wish there was some way to see the items that are sale priced for that hour only. I find these are some of the best deals but you really have to be watching that show to be aware of the sale.
