Why battle the crowds to find deals on holiday gifts? You can shop from the comfort of your home watching HSN and QVC, available for free over air with your Mohu antenna<\/a>!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I love holiday shopping, but I loathe having to go out in the cold, locate a parking space, and brave crowds in a store, only to learn that they have sold out of a sale item I had hoped to purchase.<\/p>\n

To eliminate this cause of holiday stress, I simultaneously watch QVC<\/a> and HSN<\/a>\u00a0over the air using my Curve 50 Indoor Amplified HDTV Antenna<\/a>\u00a0and my laptop. \u00a0I watch one channel via my over-the-air antenna, and the other I watch via their website. \u00a0(I call it constructive multi-tasking and my family calls it crazy. It’s probably a little bit of both!<\/em>)<\/p>\n

The desire to score deals on top name brand items is the main reason viewers watch QVC<\/a> and HSN<\/a>\u00a0, but both networks also offer cord cutters<\/a> free over-the-air entertainment throughout the year in the form of product demonstrations and tutorials.<\/p>\n

QVC Makes Holiday Shopping Fun & Easy<\/h1>\n

Broadcasting in six countries via cable, satellite and over-the-air, QVC<\/a>\u00a0programming is wildly popular for its informative and entertaining product presentations. Special bundles, gift wrap options and holiday pricing make holiday shopping from home a breeze!<\/p>\n

What I like most about QVC is the ability to see products being used before I buy them. The hosts make the demos fun and interesting, and sometimes just too tempting to pass up! Radio controlled toys, electronics, fitness equipment and crafting items are some of my favorite products shown on QVC, as well as kitchen gadgets and holiday food items.<\/p>\n

The QVC Program Guide<\/a> is an easy way to track a QVC host’s activity and check what’s coming up on the programming schedule at a glance by date, time zone and channel. \u00a0You can adjust the guide to view one day or the whole week. You can also set reminders to be sent to you via email so you won’t miss your favorite host or product lines.<\/p>\n

\"QVC<\/p>\n

Two of my favorite QVC hosts are David Venable and Jill Bauer.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m particularly fond of \u2018In the Kitchen with David\u2019<\/em> <\/a>segments. David provides viewers with great\u00a0recipes<\/a>\u00a0, kitchen how-to tips, and the heads up on quality cooking products.<\/p>\n

\u2018You\u2019re Home with Jill\u2019<\/em> <\/a>segments are wonderful for learning \u00a0new things related to cooking, decorating and entertaining.<\/p>\n
