More & more a lot of what they say is infantile, silly or then there is Jane who has told us more about her mom & dad than I know about some of my own family. lol moms red purse, dads chair. ugh.

I purchased their sampler of hand cream. Ugh strong scent that clashes with my expensive cologne till it dissipates.
That “stuff” is certainly not for hard working hands. I garden, dont own a dishwasher & prepare 3 meals daily & clean a large house. This lotion burns my hands. Far from soothing. -
I agree. Its awful. I have begun playing my favorite music and doing more crafts instead of watching & getting talked into buying stuff. lol
-
His food pricing is certainly out of control. I notice hsn no longer touts how they save us money because they omit the middle man. Ha ha. They are the middle man. Twice with late nite insomnia got talked into purchasing food items & regretted both.
I purchased 2 of curtis kitchen “stuff.” Both junk. No longer watch him. -
steelmagnolia57 Did u know that sunscreen needs to be reapplied every two hours? Cant imagine reapplying 5 essentials every two hours.
I will not smear currently available sunscreen over my make up so I own many lovely hats.
In Europe I found wonderful water soluble spray sunscreen that I was able to apply over make up. It was awesome, however cannot find it anywhere in America currently. -
I think hsn is in trouble. I recall many yrs ago prior to other channel going under tv would be blank. Then learned theyy hadnt paid.
Well couple months ago saw same thing on tv with hsn.
I think many are pulling out seeing the handwriting on the wall.
Also I bet sales are down.
Clothing prices are outrageous.
first time in years went to a mall. Holy cow, what bargains. NO SHIPPING. try on & buy on & take home. Yeah, ok, not all sizes available, but its ok because the prices are lower, and these 2 shop channels only nhave same old same old basics. I want things a bit different. Got 2 awesomely gorgeous sweaters, & unique top each cost less than one of the t shirts, & it was fun gettin out in the world again. -
Yep, frustrating isnt it?
I am back out in the world shopping in real stores. Yeah, not all sizes in all colors. so what.
No shipping fee, which pay for lunch out lol, no guessing sizes, Fun to try on again.
Shocked at variety of clothing vs same old stuff, with 2 shopping channels, and prices much lower. Certainly did not pay $40 for cotton t shirt> -
Yep. I finally realized the same thing.
I am back out in the stores. What fun finding bargains that afford me to have a nice lunch or dinner out.
No more covid shut in. -
jmc oh boy, I understand. Prices are outrageous. They no longer sell unique as they did years ago. Only basics now at inflated prices.
I recall laughing when they said we skip the middleman. Hysterical. They ARE the middle man!!
@ almost 80, hadnt been to stores in years.
OMG. Went out spent day shopping in what did they call them “stores with a door” and holy jamoly was I surprised. I purchased some clothes and in comparison to these 2 shopping channels got some great bargains Yes, not all styles in all sizes, so what. Rather spend a bit of time rather than a lot more $. Two pair pants, 3 tops & so happy at the low cost that I treated myself to dinner at a restaurant I always wanted to go to but said I couldnt afford. Yummy yum, yum.
honestly, it was so good to get out, as I had to get out of my jammies lol. Think I was still in funk over the covid . Actually felt good to put on some make up & a nice outfit to go out. Fun to actually talk to sales people & taking a break with a drink on a bench talking. Think you gals should try it too.
Forced myself the first time, but now look forward to going shopping every 2 wks & finding bargains, but mostly diffenernt unique clothes not same old stuff at both networks. Certainly did not pay over $60 for a plain mostly cotton sweatshirt. -
I WAS HORNSWAGGLED!!!!!
Adrien selling lip plumping. Wow her lips looked good. Hard earned $ to buy it.
Did absolutely nothing.
Happened to recall when first on she said oh I live right next door to my dermatologist & go often. Ha.
Then looked at old pics of her, realizing there is absolutely no way her lips grew so huge from her product.
I now remember they are there to make money.
I recall purchasing a vehicle from a used car salesman & it was so similar.
So, I shall bless her on her greedy way, and never purchase from her again.
Amen. -
Here is my personal experience that makes me believe that they oversell & we must wait because they are waiting for returns.
3 of us old gal friends ordered same item. Two arrived quickly & perfect. 3rd gal ordered later & had to wait and received a crumpled garment with perfume odor. -
Taci, I am 76 all family & friends waiting for me in heaven,. Tired of cooking & in this town of just over 2000 people couple icky restaurants, one wee overpriced grocery store.. So, sometimes in a pity party got sucked in & ordered “stuff.” Cant call most of it food. Breaded fish. OMG so much pepper in the breading, I had to scrape it off. Cant recall name, but once near Christmas had these special chewy treats I hadnt had in years. Wow. Expiry was a month away, but the nuts in them were already rancid. You are not missing anything good. I get the salivating while watching bit. Now, I have forced myself, since I am an insomniac, to just get up & go to kitchen & cook//freeze good stuff.

I get your frustration. Oh thanks for the laugh, Angie. your description of gorilla arms is priceless. Most long sleeve tops sleeves 31 inches. My arms are 25 in.

About a year ago I became disgusted with clothing on h & q. Cheaply made, sans darts etc to cut their costs, and same old stuff. Well, I relearned it can be fun to hunt for a special top on sale, and to speak with real people!! Didnt diet, but just running around twice a week to stores I lost 12 pounds, Partially due to not eating in front of tv I am certain. I treat myself to lunch, and found a favorite place where “they know my name” & have become friends. Sometimes I catch myself just wanting to stay in jammies in front of tv, so put sign on fridge as reminder.
TODAY WAS GOOD
TODAY WAS FUN
TOMORROW
WILL BE ANOTHER ONE. I see it, get dressed in clothes rotting in the closet, feel good & get out of the house. Momentum picks up, as now I take bread to duck pond to just relax & feed the ducks. My lil dog died recently, so I take the treats to the dog park, & have fun with the dogs & friendly folks. Finally realized we could have another covid shut down, & I dont want to regret not getting out!!! -
I agree about inclusive sizing. I am 5ft 1in, & some items sold as petite are definitely not. They are short in length, but nothing else adjusted. From my shoulder seam to wrist is 25″ sleeve length on tops with cuffs about 31:.
At 76, I have “grown” lol from size xs to xl. THE ABSOLUTE WORST IS THE PREJUDICE IN FASHION. Yeah, offer up to sometimes 5x, but go take a look at the size charts. As sizes increase measurements increase by 2 in increments=====until size large. oh oh. All of a sudden from about size large, each size increases by a whopping 4 inches. So, larger size women can never get a garment to fit appropriately, It is disgusting.
