I was thinking last night how rarely I actually watch QVC compared to 10+ years ago. When I first discovered QVC when we got a Freeview box back in the day I was watching at some point every day, I then became addicted, staying up to watch TSV launches at midnight, watching again in the morning with my first cup of coffee. I was buying all sorts of stuff, probably 1 or 2 parcels per week, far more than I should have done and spending far more than I could afford. Nowadays I come here to see if there are any TSVs coming up that I may be interested in, and I very rarely buy. The last time I actually watched QVC was the other morning at 7 am to see the demonstration of the Josie Maran TSV which I had already bought and had been delivered and tried out, just for 15 mins to see what they were saying about it.
I get the feeling the longer you have been shopping with QVC the more jaded you become, you start to realise that what you used to think were massive bargains turn out to be not that much of a bargain at all.
My biggest weakness used to be beauty TSVs, and I used to have so many body washes, mascaras, lippies, etc, etc that I had to give them away to family/friends/school fairs just to get them out of the house. Now I am just buying what I need from Lookfantastic, Feelunique and so on (thanks Shopperholic:mysmilie_14
, getting free P & P, just having one body wash on the go, one cleanser, one day cream, one night-time moisturiser. I am spending a fraction of what I used to pay and only have what I need, and my Hubby is a lot happier too.
