Shopportunities Abound at TJ Maxx and Marshall’s!
January 7, 2009 by Jennifer
Finally with the Holiday Season over, the hustle and bustle of shopping can now come to a halt, at least the buying of gifts for others that is!
Why not treat yourself to a little extra something for all the hard work you put in wrapping all those presents and cooking and decorating? And what better place to go to than to TJ Maxx and Marshall’s where you can find brand name merchandise for a small price– which I know all you Frugalistas out there just love: A Great Shopportunity!
TJ Maxx and Marshall’s offers designer clothing well below retail value and they offer fine quality home decor like bedding and vases, not to mention high fashion accessories like brand name purses ( a girls best friend!) for less than those other Department Stores at half the price and without sacrificing quality! And, according to quite a few of my co workers here at the office, they have a KILLER selection of high end shoes for fabulous prices!
A Few Shopping Tips from My Coworkers to Note:
- Don’t take the kids with you! You’ll need all your attention focused on finding the best bargains.
- Inventory Changes Daily! Don’t wait if you see a sweater you like, snatch it up while you can because it will NOT be there later on in the week.
- Go often, you’ll find great deals since they usually get new inventory almost daily! I called my local Marshall’s and they get new items in 4 days a week!!!!
- Be sure to sign up for their email newsletters to stay up to date on their sales and fashions! Sign up for TJ Maxx here and for Marshall’s, sign up here.
So why shop anywhere else when you can get it all at TJ Maxx or Marshall’s! And to help you get you started, we are giving away a $25 GC to TJ Maxx!
To enter, just leave a comment here telling us what would you buy at TJ Maxx! Giveaway ends 1/12!

Ohh TJ Maxx, how I love you!!
If I won, I might just have to buy a new purse because I think I’m the only person on the planet without a basic, black leather purse. Maybe in patent leather.

Something fun and pink…getting ready for Valentines
If I was to win a $25 gift card I would either buy a pr of shoes (what woman couldn’t use just one more pr?). Or maybe some jewlery, I was in there right before christmas and saw a nice ring that I wanted that was on clearance. I struggled because I really couldn’t justify spending $ on myself when it was the season of giving! When I finally got the nerve to do it about a week or so later it was gone! : ( Maybe there would be another one there that I would like.
I cannot remember the last time I bought myself a new pair of shoes. I would love to treat myself.
I would love to get some new cooking things- pans and such as well as drapes and a rod for the playroom.

Our business has been hit hard in this economy. We had to close our company 12/31 and apply to become employees for another company. It was a tight Christmas. I would enjoy having some ‘me’ time to shop at T.J. Maxx and just ‘forget’ about how the bills are going to get paid this month.
I love to shop at TJ’s & Marshall’s. I bought way to much there at xmas. All but the frying pan I need. I would buy a frying pan.

I would be a hot top!
I need warm pajamas for my son and some for myself too.
I would buy new jeans! Gotta love TJ!
I need some new warm slippers! I would LOVE to win this.
If i won I’d buy clothes. WARM clothes. I’m from western Washington where it does get pretty cold, but it’s easy to deal with. But this year I’m a freshman at college and I’m going to eastern washington university which is on the other side of the state and FREEZING. The snow is up to my hip most of the time and even higher in many places, to make it worst we’re supposed to get record amounts of snow this year. So, since I’m not usually a big fan of long sleeve shirts I NEED some.
If I win, it will be the first time I get to go into the store.
Sounds like they have great deals and I should go see sometime.
Hmmmm… I would have a hard time choosing out of all the things I love at both stores, but I spotted a really soft long blanket for snuggling on the sofa while Christmas shopping that I would love to go back and get. My sofa throws are too short! Probably would have to pick up some clothes for the kids too.
I need clothes to wear for job interviews. This would help a lot.
I’m really needing a new purse! Thanks for the giveaway!
i would definitely buy things for my home! i love their collection of plates!
I would probably try to find classic decor for my house…its been two years and im just getting around to decorating!
I buy all my purses at TJ Maxx. I save money on all the brand name purses and it gives me the chance sometimes to buy 2 at a time!!!
I would love a new scarf or some gloves.
I seem to have good luck with holiday decorating items so I would buy something for Valentines Day.
I’d buy some clothes for my baby!
I get my kids clothes there, my houseware items, shoes – everything! I wouldn’t have a problem spending it – my problem would be how not to spend any more when I am there!
That’s so hard to say! TJ Maxx is one of my favorite places to shop and I love that inventory changes so much. I’d be looking for a new purse, some new pans and clothes of course!! LOL!!
Would love to win the gift card. I am sure that I would probably use it to buy something for my kids.
Thanks for the opportunity.
