T.J. Maxx and Marshall’s Off-Price 101 Spring Shopping Review

Marshall's gift card giveaway

 

You may already know how much of a fan I am of both T.J. Maxx and Marshall’s. I am lucky enough to have both of these stores only about five minutes away from me. I recently went shopping at T.J. Maxx to check out their Spring must-have items, and I came home with three shirts!

This year customers turned budget savvy, finding that value was more than just price, but actually a combination of on-trend trend fashion, quality AND price. With the same merchandise at 60% less than department stores, customers everywhere can live the designer life without designer prices. Now, consumers can indulge in spring’s hottest trends without sacrificing quality or overspending.

As I wandered around the store, I found exactly what I wanted immediately. I had in my mind the type of Spring shirts I wanted – and was so happy when two of them were on the first rack I looked on. The selection of Spring clothing was colorful and cheerful, and I was having a blast. I moved down a few racks and found the third shirt – a light blue dressy tank.

T.J. Maxx and Marshall's Off-Price Spring Shopping review

T.J. Maxx and Marshall’s carry the same in-season and on-trend as department and specialty stores, but for a lot less!  I am always amazed at their prices.  Two of the shirts I bought were only $14.99 each (compared to $30.00 at a department store).  They had really cute shoes too, and again the prices were so low.  For me, I would prefer get several outfits here, rather than one outfit for the same price at a department store.  It just makes sense.

Since opening its first store in 1977, T.J.Maxx has helped customers maximize their budgets wih the same on-trend, in season, first quality merchandise as department and specialty stores, but for much less.  When shoppers compare price tags on merchandise they will find that it’s not just about a low price, but what they are getting for that low price…a powerful combination of high quality, top name, current season merchandise.  Amazing savings can be found in every department from apparel for women, men and children to accessories, home, beauty and even jewelry.  Also with 10,000 new items arriving to T.J.Maxx stores each week, there is always a fresh, ever-changing assortment of current season merchandise!  Off-price shopping is smart shopping!

Marshall’s and T.J. Maxx have some wonderful Spring clothing items, and loads of accessories!  In addition to items for women, they have so many options for men and children too.  If you haven’t checked out their home decor – you definitely want to!  The last time I was at Marshall’s, I found a framed print (matted too!) for $6.00.  I proudly hung it in my bathroom and it was perfect!  The Marshall’s store near our house is fairly new, and it is huge.  I am so impressed and excited each time I set foot in the store.

For Spring clothing, accessories, decor and more – head to T.J. Maxx or Marshall’s!  There is a forum on the Marshall’s website where you can tell others about your great finds too – how fun is that?  Don’t forget to enter the T.J. Maxx Spring 2010 Contest on Facebook for some wonderful prizes!

  1. Not as recently as I would like! But…my last purchase from T.J. Maxx included some sassy underthings and some SUPER cute textured knee high socks. I love how much I save each time I go there!

  2. Since I only live a mile away from both, I stop in frequently. I recently picked up some pillow shams for about 25% of the original price.

  3. The last time I was at TJ Maxx, I found a really cute hanging jewelry organizer that worked out great for my small scrapbooking supplies. It was only ten bucks!

    I always find a lot of cute photo props at TJ's or Marshall's. Love those stores!

  6. I visit TJMaxx frequently – it is probably my favorite store. My most recent purchase was a pair of Purdue sweatpants for my husband, regularly $16.99, clearanced for end of season for $10. I always find great buys there. (Unfortunately, the nearest Marshall's is about 45 minutes away for me, whereas TJMaxx is only 15 minutes away.)
