Merry Christmas in July!!!

Christmas in July has started on QVC . Is anyone else watching it? I am trying to find some unique gifts for exchanges as well as for people on my gift list.

So, today's QOTD is-
*Do you purchase things from QVC or HSN?

 

[Meriweather]

I went through a phase a long time ago......pre computer time, that I spent one whole winter buying things on HSN. Mostly jewelry.
Now very seldom.
I don't even turn them on....too many other things to keep me busy and take my money

 

[Pooh67_68]

I watch when I remember its on. I have only bought 3 things though.

 

[TheDisneyBunch]

Ok, so I am so bad with recipes.. I just don't have anything special. My best is my chicken caserole which is pretty simple over all. Just uses cream of chicken soup, white meat chicken, bread crumbs and seasoning. Layer and bake! I always can make a very tastey one.



YAY! Christmas in July is on QVC! I am watching now!

I have not bought a whole lot from shopping shows but I have picked up a piece of jewelry here and there.
