Did I really see, on that black embroidered pouch, the words "Don't judge a book by it's cover"?

It's???? With an apostrophe???

Did nobody spot this during the long development process? Has no-one in QVC had the courage to mention it?

Dare someone to phone up and tell her on-air...

Hi,

forgot she was on

I think this has been mentioned before on other bags!

Cheers,
Karen

You seem surprised, I'm not, no doubt her design & development team consists of a bunch of somewhat dim Sloanies with a rusty half an 'O' level between the lot of them......but they probably learnt to cook whilst working as a chalet girl so it's not entirely hopeless.....! :grin:

Lol. Doubtless true. What does this say about the country's education?

 

[Snarly]

They obviously did not have SisterScholastica for their teacher ... and her ever-present and far-reaching yardstick. Wham! Ah, the GoodOldDays.

Yes I never quite got over my early education with nuns, they were a tough bunch and not adverse to giving you a smack with whatever they had to hand if you were naughty:grin:

 

[Tinkerbelle]

God you did!! £220 for a bag with a grammatical error. Well that's amused me no end. Easily amused I know.

bet they can make a great cheese fondue

That teachers don't work for LG? :wink:

Personally, as a teacher, I don't own any LG items because I cannot justify spending that amount on a handbag and I'd also be sorely tempted to use a red pen on any grammatical errors that I spotted. :wink:

It always amazes me when these errors end up on products. It's extremely prevalent in the craft world - eg 'your special' which always has me screaming 'my special what???'. So much for Quality Control - at QVC (or IW) as well as the manufacturer.

Maybe they think most people won't notice anyway. A quick glance round any high street will tell you that is a distinct possibility - the urge to carry a large black marker when I am out and about is huge!!

They'll be bloody old chalet girls if they've got O levels. I ought to know I've got them!

Yeah yeah, I know, showing my age (again! lol) there, huh? :grin:

 

[Disenchanted]

Pleased we are unanimously horrified by this - not surprised though, which is very sad.

Don't think it still exists but many years ago I was walking past the Scotch House in Knightsbridge - the home of beauteous but seriously overpriced woollens - and saw a sign in the window advertising their "polar neck" sweaters........

"Eats, Shoots & Leaves" anyone?

Maybe it"s (he he) her philosophy :angel: :mysmilie_501:

Forty pounds for a cosmetic Bag!!!! Ms Guiness then exclaimed "oh look at that price £40.50, I didn't realise it was as good as that" what! it's a nylon make up bag for gods sake, she doesn't live in the real world does she?

 

[lawrenson]

Hi

at one place I worked the staff canteen always had "lasange" on once a week.

Cheers,

[Bensmum]

I was watching earlier and she said she didn't know how they'd managed to keep the price so low. Nearly 300 quid for a bag you would only use with very limited special occasion outfits. She's on another planet.

 

[Capirossi]

I saw the most beautiful, gorgeous tan leather bag in Marks today, and balked at the £59 price tag. Me!! I am most definitely back in my sensible head

From mobile, please excuse any silly errors!!

 

[AllThatGlitters]

Maybe it"s (he he) her philosophy

Ah, yes...a playful, girlish disregard for punctuation...

I wonder if she can spell her own surname properly? Or does she need to carry one of her own bags so she can check the label?

 

[madge65]

I always think she looks awkward on tv as if she wishes she wasnt there ..lol
