For a moment there I thought you meant Katie Price.
£34 on shortbread omg! And at this time of year I’m surprised at how much money people are spending on themselves!Judging by some comments on Qurio,some of them are feeling the pinch on income.
But still they keep buying
. Words fail me sometimes! 
what the actual!!!! Plus those tiny little cakes....... I could go on and on..
That will be Erika, money no object obviously.Even if that were the case, which I imagine it is not, you would not throw it away on items you can get at a fraction of the cost elsewhere.Even housebound people can do this if they use the internet. This lady and her frequently featured Mother-in-Law must spend a fortune at QVC and that is just the P&P costs.This is creating their own ‘cost of living’ crisis, unbelievable.Just been on Quorio for a nosey. Dear god, the Spanish (? Not sure?) lady has just spent £90 PLUS postage for some random chocolates, cheese that is cheaper if you go direct and gingerbread!!! Has she not heard of Aldi??? Or even Marks and Spencer. I have done a full weekly shop for half this amount, including a decent Malbec
I used to buy Thorntons chocs when Qvc did them, they were a bargain at Christmas time, and I did buy a tin of the German gingerbread once as a great but that's it! If I want posh chocs now it's Green and Blacks or m and s, cheese is Aldi!! And as for the price of the pies
I listened to the video and she said she's done a load of overtime to be able to pay for her latest haul. Far be it for me to tell people what to do with their money, but for heavens sake, I'm sure a mum of a young family could better spend her money on something that'll thrill the kids and create lasting memories. Sweet treats and cheeses are lovely for Christmas, of course they are, but you can buy all this stuff from Lidl and Aldi, same quality, but an absolute fraction of the cost so no need to do the overtime! I bought an extortionately priced tin of gingerbread from Q a few years ago, and yes it was delicious, but it turned out that the Waitrose own brand gingerbread (and I get discount) was exactly the same product and I'd have saved myself £££s. If I remember rightly I'd have got more gingerbread by buying a few boxes of Waitrose own, saved money, yes, they were in cardboard boxes, but I worked out that the fancy tin (that I found no use for) ended up costing £13 = Lesson learned!
Sorry, she'd written that in the comments bit. Her latest video is of a pair of palazzo trousers for £4.95 & £1.95 postage, so in all not a bad deal. I'd have like to have seen her "style them up" with a t shirt instead of bunging them on with a cozee home pyjama top. Having said that I'm sure she'll look great in summer, but she's in for a long wait! I love a palazzo myself and might've been tempted myself but from what she said she bought the small and she's an inch taller than me, so I'd be tripping over them, possibly as I'm a bit slimmer than she is I'd get away with the XS but they would probably still be too long, that and the fact that my next foreign holiday is not until May and I'm not into stocking up on stuff for the sake of it. Anyway, she got herself a bargain. Bless her though, I think her money might be better spent on a trip to DFS!
eek!
Good point, and I totally agree. If people want to spend hours trawling the website looking for "bargains" or sitting goggle eyed in front of the telly all day that's up to them, anyone with a spending habit doesn't need that extra voice telling them "quick, buy now or you'll miss out". Qurio, that seems to be running itself at the moment needs to stipulate that reviews have to be for something you've actually bought for yourself and have received. I guess that's not gonna stop anyone listing item numbers in the comments section, but it would be a step in the right direction.Cost of living crisis not on Qurio,cardboard Richard is the heads up merchant this week(which is something that to me is totally out of order)keep encouraging people to spend money cardboard Richard,seriously are you a man or a mouse
Has Pullinger finally given up,on her tips and silly competitions
and got 25% off. I was made up, it's alot of saving in my estimation. I think she said that she was going to place it in a porch, so it wouldn't be affected by the weather, even so, I'd still consider £30 too much to pay for one of these things. I bought one, ok it was a few years ago for my Tea loving friend, who also loves plants and gardening and paid absolutely nowhere near those prices for it, she's still got it in her garden and last time I noticed it, it didn't look weather worn. A quick google shows that you can get them in B&M for under a tenner, though the designs weren't so intricate. Anyway, I hope that this little foray into Ebay will show her that Q isn't the B all and end all!
