I purchased a Gucci bag at a TJ Maxx store. I wore it 3 times and it started to rip by the zipper. I shipped it to Gucci to get it repaired and they sent it back to me saying it is not a Gucci bag. So be careful what you buy from them because it’s most likely not real. Your best bet is to go to the designer stores direct. I am now questioning the other bags I have bought there. I will no longer be purchasing designer items from them !!

In reply to aye. Are you buying them because their loubitions and you love the brand or are you buying them because they're a name brand? Use the cost per wear to figure out whether the shoes are worth it (are you going to really wear the shoes?).

It’s a shame they don’t give the men/boys more of a selection at TJ Maxx (a larger section for us both would be nice, as well). I know most of the men out there have their wives or girlfriends do their shopping, but some of us can actually accomplish it on our own. It’s difficult, though, when most stores are 90% aimed toward women. Oh well, guess we’ll just have to settle for our 10%.

You can definately find some good deals at TJ Maxx, but I agree with the others, you have to have lots of time to sift through the junk. I found a $365 Joie puffer vest for $79.99, and a Theory cashmere V-neck sweater for $39.99 and a Theory cashmere cable-knit vest for $39.99 as well. I find alot of Theory, Juicy, and Michael Kors petite clothing. Sometimes I see some fairly good handbags, like Dooney and Coach. While I personally don’t carry those two brands (I am a Marc Jacobs gal), I have bought some of those cheap and sold them on Ebay for a nice profit. I would like to check out a runway dept. but no TJ Maxx where I live has one. Boohoo.

Shopping at this type of store is for the “love to shop” customer. You have time on your hands and what better than finding an item you almost feel like your getting away with something because the price is dirt cheap. I found a Dooney & Burke for 79.99 with registration cards included. It may have been the off season bag but who only uses this type of bag for one season and disposes? Not many..it’s a keeper. Tan leather and black canvas…it’s the best. A Ralph Lauren cashmere lilac cable turtle neck was my last find…clearanced at 58.00! The day before I was surfing on line looking and clearance price was 73.99 and only if you were a L or XL smaller sizes sold out. 95% of the time when I leave this type of store I feel like the “shopper of the year” with the deals I scored. It’s the perfect place for the average middle class to feel they can also afford some designer items and still feed the family! My husband feels relieved when he knows I’m heading out to this type of store to do some shopping and the smile on my face when I get home is worth it!

Hello,
I agree you need time when you go to tjmaxx, marshalls and others, but personally i find designer items each time i go,
ed hardy
2 b free
michael kors
nine west (almost designer)
coach/ dooney bags
beverly feldman
and many others, so many that i forget,
as you can see i am an advocate of the tjmaxx, and marshalls, they offer the best prices on designer trends.

My theory on TJ’s and the like is only go there when you have time to browse and never go when you are looking for something specific. But, do buy when you see something that is a fantastic opportunity like the Calvin Klein sliver velvet bias cut dress with draped neckline that I found for $49 or the Ralph Lauren wool sweater coat that I just bought for $39
