We don't have cable TV and the HSN was dropped locally here. We haven't had it in years. When I think of the money I wasted shopping every month with them it makes me sick. Everything they sold is available here so I guess I was just being lazy and enjoyed turning in the TV to shop. You are so right in saying it is addictive. I'm glad it's not around anymore, besides my TV is never on before 8:30 p.m. when we watch a rented movie.
