TJ Maxx / TK Maxx

I know the TJ Maxx in NYC gets the best stuff hands down. And, is their biggest money maker. I worked there.
 
is there a general rule about where the best TJ Maxx' are located? Nearer big cities, farther ??


I bought a Vera Wang dress in the middle of nowhere Michigan, and Chicago's TJ Maxx sells Prada and Miu Miu.

If you typically don't find good things at a certain location though, it will probably stay that way.
 
I had no idea TJ Maxx had designer goods...unfortunately in the market I live in, I won't find anything high end... :(
 
I assume the TJ Maxx near me(northern ohio) wouldn't have anything high end.Not that I buy anything like that, but it'd be fun to work there and be around the designer labels.
 
I try to go every now and then but I can never find any designer items! The one closest to where I live only seems to have brands like Apple Bottom jeans and Baby Phat...also, what is a "Runway section"? Do some TJ Maxx's actually have this section?? I get so frustrated every time I go because it's so unorganized and difficult to shop through, so maybe I'm not looking in the right place!
 
the tjmaxx you go to may not have the runway section (not all of them do)

the runway section is sort of separate (usually near the shoes/fitting rooms in my experience) and is clearly marked with big purple signs...
 
I go to about 5 local TJM. I swear half the fun is the chase of finding something.
I havent been in a long time but I need new stuff so I hope they have good stuff now!
 
^^that's an AMAZING deal! :shock:

i bought a vera wang navy cashmere/silk short-puff-sleeved long cardigan with small intricately beaded pockets for $300 and i thought that was a great deal :innocent:

well done!
 
I've heard so many good things about this store, I wish I had one near me :judge:
 
Ugh we have one near me but like a previous poster mentioned, this TJ maxx's idea of brand name is baby phat / applebottom

Are there any good TJ maxx in the SF east bay area?
 
I like TK Maxx, just got some RAF by Raf Simons jeans for £12 ($23), bargain!
 
You really have to look over the clothing closely at TJ Maxx/Marshalls. So often I see merchandise with imperfections - perhaps that's why they're there in the first place. I also wonder if it's from various people just sifting through the racks.
 
My friend just did an ad for TJMAXX,it appeared in the April 2008 issue of Vouge page 357!!!.......... I'm so proud of her!!!
 
I've seen James Perse, Splendid, and Ella Moss at my TJ Maxx recently. I have a hard time finding designer stuff there, except sunglasses. Valentino, Gucci, Miu Miu, etc... when they go on clearance it's so cheap. My Miu Miu sunglasses were $32 & $15, my Fendi's $10.
 
theres 3 with in 20 min radious of my house yet i never go i never have time/patience to do it .. but i might have a mooch next week i wish the uk ones got as good of a brands .. that why i never go its much more street wear here
 
damn!

what is this amazing place? and why didn't i ever know about it?

how does it work anyway?
 
^^ its like a shop thats laid out in rails and rails jus hanging in size order you really have to root about to find stuff .. its either slight seconds or ends of lines
 
How do you guys feel about tjmaxx (or tkmaxx for those of you in the UK) ^_^

Do you shop there, do you like it?

I have gotten TONS of stuff there over the years and have found that if you have the patience to sort through all of their stuff you may be generously rewarded... :flower:

I don't have time right this second because I should be studying for finals but feel free to post pics of stuff you have gotten there and things you got good deals on...

A short list of some of my great/exceptional finds and approximate prices off the top of my head if I can remember:

A navy blue and cream Valentino coat- on clearance $180
A long black lacey Vera Wang evening dress- $125-$150
Navy blue velvet with sort of jewelled applique vest by Emporio Armani
Pink Houndstooth Moschino blazer- $70 (I think it ended up being cheaper after some time on clearance)
Yellow Tara Jarmon blazer (when I was in London)- 20-30 pounds I think :ermm:

tons of other good stuff but those are all my busy mind can remember at the moment

I just bought a Chloe top from TXMAXX here in the UK a few weeks ago - beautiful and such a bargain! I love that store!
