Oh so glad to know that. I never buy anything here at the North Pole but it's fun to watch and if it is all month, I don't drive Perky crazy watching it all night long in bed. Though I must admit, I miss making it am "event". Had a friend that would take off 24-26 July as part of her vacation and we would have an old fashioned slumber party.


Yes, the 'good ole days' when QVC celebrated the actual weekend/days of Christmas in July. I used to take vacation off too. I have shopped during the celebration because it is their best sale of Christmas trees, wreaths & garlands to decorate. Mine have lasted over a decade. And this year? I need a new garland with LED lights this time. :think:

I LOVE seeing this flurry of activity on this thread. I'm hoping more Christmas friends find us and join in. :smilecc:

I am listening to tunes from Polar Express to keep my Christmas spirits high. A girl has to keep her elf shoes polished and her attitude cheerful! :wink:

Is their Christmas garland good quality? I've never bought from QVC before and don't know if they have good stuff. I like to touch and feel before I buy.

Looking at our long range forecast, it looks like Christmas in July may be a hot one.[/quote

I am trying not to think of that. Some years we make all these plans for Christmas in July and it turns out too hot to do anything but lay in bed and spray each other with water guns...you think I am joking..... :P
