QVC kicked off the holiday weekend on Thanksgiving evening with The New Black Friday, a special TV and Web programming event that gave America a head-start on its post-turkey gift shopping. In an effort to differentiate itself from the promotional frenzy of traditional retail, QVC's 28-hour event offered "all of the deals, none of the craziness," promising an easier and more enjoyable alternative to the mall. Unique to the day were not one, but three Today's Special Value offers (items presented at exceptionally low prices, for a specific period of time), as well as specially priced deals in every hour of programming.  The momentum continued through the weekend, driven again by powerful Today's Special Value offers - a Dell(TM) Windows 7 Notebook on Saturday, with more than 60,000 units ordered, and the Keurig Premium Single Serve Coffee Brewer on Sunday, with nearly 100,000 units ordered. Additional top sellers from the weekend included the Nintendo Wii Gaming System with Accessories, Case and Games, the Olympus 12 MP 5x Optical Zoom Camera, the Nintendo Wii Fit Plus and Accessory Kit with Mat and Balance Board, the Clarisonic Facial Cleansing System and the KitchenAid Nine-Cup Food Processor with Accessories. "This year, QVC wanted to provide a Black Friday experience unlike those found at the mall - with trusted brands, honest values, and friendly, stress-free customer service," said Mike George, QVC's president and CEO. "Judging from the tremendous customer response this weekend, this is exactly what today's holiday shoppers are looking for - real values and great service, without all the crowds, traffic and promotional craziness."QVC's holiday shopping season continues on Cyber Monday, and throughout the month of December.
