The SAME items, over and over!

I worked from home today. TV was on to HSN TS’ no no’ ( I prepared my lunch, turned to another channel. They presented Their TS. .. Then they presented two more items – I bought one of their items as I ate lunch )  –  I turned back to HSN and the TS ‘No No ‘ was Still on.

Lots of new products on QVC.  All the time.  Just sayin.

Hey carlos, you forgot to mention the NoNo!!

…And the No No? lol

How many computers do we need!!!!

For me, it’s usually as background noise, unless I’m particularly interested in something. 

For instance…I happened to flip to Evine over the weekend and noticed some new fangled "SOLAR CHARGERS"…by a young upcoming company making all kinds of  small… affordable …super duper lightweight solar charging units that you can take and charge while at school…at the beach…in the car…on your patio…in a backpack.

Those solar panels were also soft, bendable… indestructible, and I was glued to the tv.  Mind you, I didn’t buy it…but again…it became something I was particularly interested in and will probably at some time…purchase it.

Otherwise…I do like to see what chefs are cooking, but have fallen into the ‘trap’ years ago when I thought I just HAD TO HAVE IT…then ordered whatever "IT" was…then realized I really didn’t have an urgent ‘use’ for "IT"…and …all those "ITS"???  STILL IN BOXES!!!!  OR…a steal for someone buying "IT" at one of my garage sales!! :womanfrustrated:

I "am" though sorry I didn’t purchase that infusable pitcher they had over the weekend.  It also looked interesting and I bet could be used for tons of things.  Problem is that it looked like it would satisfy an army of people. 

I wish they would all make things for small families and couples instead of things so large that you could invited 100 of your closest friends!!!! :smileyvery-happy:

Hey Massha, I guess your right about us torturing ourselves with t.v.  Maybe it all comes down to a "HABIT" or maybe I’m scared I’m gonna miss something.  We should all just turn the dang channel(s)….lol…..:womanlol:   When it comes to beauty products…..that is my weakness.  Always looking for the "miracle cream that will take 10 years off my face"………good luck on that one.  Anyhoo, hope my post gives you some insight on why we do what we do…….lol………:womanwink:

To all the folks who posted here – will  you please satisfy my curiousity?

My question is this: why do you watch the sales shows even when they are boring to you instead of watching real TV? I really appreciate any insights on this. Thank you in advance!

I think they push the stuff that has the biggest profit margin.

Why would they have to spend 20 minutes selling a shredder? It shreds stuff…it doesn’t take 20 minutes to get that point across.

CarlosSW, I agree with you and all the rest.  I have been thinking the same thing, "repeat…repeating….everything…over and over and over"…..I get so bored and I am not watching like I use to.  Have been dropping in on Evine more lately.  The channel offers different merchandise and that interest me. And OHOHOH, I did see the Infuse Pitchers.  They look sooo cool and very pretty.  Gonna try one!  It would be so attractive at any occation.  Just imagine when company sees that Infuse Pitcher…you then become the "BIG MEOW".  Nothing like being the center-of-attention…..lol.

HSN—let’s get new ideas and new items.  We the public need a change….go for it!

In addition, the times a discount is offered it is never on sale or clearance items. :womanmad:

This is why I like Dillards and Kohls.  I get discounts all the time on clearance items at Dillards and Kohls.   :heart:

My shopping at HSN is not at its usual high.   

The same stuff and rarely a discount. 

Receiving a discount on occasional holidays is it.   Really?

More and More I find myself buying from other channels.

Last week I want to buy multiple pairs of TL Cheek sandals but I did not because of the …. Magazine. So instead I went to another channel and purchased multiples of Susan Gravers  TS skorts.  A few days ago, knives and glassware – Evine. Today the Infuser Chill  pitchers are too pretty to pass up.

I wish HSN would do a near total makeover. New  or expanded Studio, Expanded variety of kitchen items, modern selling approach. Focus more on general brands and variety – Less on celebrities.

In the time HSN is pushing, shoving and choking one item, other channels would have presented three other ones.

When you have a captive audience, you can do what you want to….That’s why I don’t watch anymore…even playing the games…it’s gets so boring. 

Over and Over and Over!!

In between watching Netflix, I am buying Infuse Pitchers ….. Two of them. I’ve never used one but these look so pretty on Evine.
