An Organised Jumble Sale

Advantages: Could find that Valentino outfit you always dreamed of owning
Disadvantages: Will take you ages to locate it!

...ever made one purchase. TK Maxx are essentially an outlet store selling branded goods at knock-down prices. They stock clothes for men, women and children, bags and luggage, toiletries, home wares and toys in out local branch. Although "branded" not all of the goods are makes that you have heard of. You can buy CK, Boss, Lacoste, Gossard and the like but there will also be plenty of labels that say "London, New York and Milan" that you have never ...
...Although known for their clothes, TK Maxx does stock other items and my one purchase from the store was in fact an Edinburgh Crystal vase to match some glasses that I received as a present. Stock changes rapidly and if you are a "labels" person I would imagine that it is well worth checking back regularly for new stock. TK Maxx does itself have sales too and items are often heavily discounted. Sale rails are kept separate from the main stock too ...

TK Maxx - A Men's Guide

Advantages: Labels For Less
Disadvantages: Clothes Shopping is boring for Men

...cheap brands. However in TK Maxx you have rows and rows of threads (as we called them in the 60's) embazoned with logos, most of which I have never heard of and vying to be the nost conspicuous. What is this all about? Most of the clothes that end up in TK Maxx do so for a reason I suspect, ie they are last seasons style, the colour was unpopular etc. So when I look through the rails, 99% of the stuff I wouldn't look at for more than a second. ...
...bankrupt business or one that overstocked maybe? A nice Timberland Jacket at half price? That's more like it. But I really don't have much patience with clothes shopping, if I can go straight to Primark and get the colour and size I want, thats fine by me Whilst I am having a good moan, despite the best efforts of the staff, the goods often seem to be mixed up, odd shoes, shirts in the wrong size section etc. I really can't be doing with this But ...

Maxx-imum Value

Advantages: Bargains aplenty, heavily turned-around stock.
Disadvantages: Organised chaos !!

T.K.Maxx is a subsiduary company of a huge U.S firm called T.J.X, Inc which has 1,300 stores across the whole of North America making it one of the Worlds largest discount retailers. The first T.K.Maxx was introduced to the U.K in 1994 as part of an expansion plan in Europe but the venture was very slow in taking off. However slow as it was, the off-price policy that T.K offers has begun to take off in recent times and there are now 123 stores in ...
...being 170 stores in the U.K within three years all making a profit which would mean that nearly every large town and city would have one, so if theres not one near you now, there soon will be ! T.K Maxx's off-price policy basically means that they sell top name brands at discount prices and the reason why they are cornering the niche in this market is that they are offering real designer products, not designer-style products which their competitors ...

CHEAP to the MAXX

Advantages: Cheap and changing stocks
Disadvantages: Too jumble sale like!

...I'd write an opinion on Tk Maxx because clothes and shopping are my two favourite things :) I've already written ops on Topshop and H + M which are high in the rankings of my favourite shops, so I decided to turn to TK Maxx for my third! There's a fairly large TK Maxx in Leeds. It's situated on the top floor of the Leeds Shopping Plaza set right at the back. They stock a LOT of goods like: Clothes - mens, ladies and childrens Shoes - mens and ...
...other brand name goods TK Maxx tends to stock past season clothes at a fair price. Ther sections are divided into mens and womens and then into areas like: Tops Jeans Trousers Skirts Casual wear It's a lot like a jumble sale in the way that it's divided up because the clothes on the particular racks are pretty much randomly placed!! Some of the brand names they stock are: Quiksilver Voodoo Dolls Nike DKNY They also stock a lot lot more ...

Maxxing it Out

Advantages: Great value for money
Disadvantages: Presentation leaves more to be desired

...them. Why should you? TK Maxx -- branded goods at a fraction of the price. So prudes may label me a cheapskate, poseur (& the list goes on) but all I care to give in reply for now is "sticks and stones..." A few things to note before you plunge head-on to your nearest TK Maxx: (a) the products are usually past season (b) they may sometimes be slightly damaged (c) be prepared to search for what you want LOCATION AND LAYOUT The Manchester outlet ...
...in chaos". *THE TK MAXX EXPERIENCE* My trudges down to TK Maxx this December have so far resulted in finds such as a Roxy Quiksilver Stationery/Makeup Case (GBP 5.99 – RRP GBP 15.00), Pepe TrueForm Jeans (GBP 9.00 – RRP GBP 50.00), Billabong Girls Pants (GBP 7.00 – RRP GBP 45.00). In case you were wondering, the first price stated is what I paid at TK Maxx, while RRP stands for Recommended Retail Price (i.e. what you will be asked to pay in a regular ...

If you've got 5 hours to look for 1 item...

Advantages: Cheap, wide variety, good often designer labels
Disadvantages: Some bad items stocked, disorganised

...sorts os labels stocked in TK Maxx - jeans from labels such as: * Diesel * Miss Sixty * Seven for all Mankind *Earl Jeans *Raplh Lauren *Tommy Hilfiger But before you get too excited, they are usually from about 10 years ago and way out of fashion. You do however sometimes find a 'current season' pair of jeans, or other article, avaliable for sale. Go for it if you do, because it isn't one of those "Oh I'll come back for it later". Even if ...
...The tops on sale in TK Maxx vary greatly from little vest tops to shirts, t-shirts and jumpers, cardigans and hoodies. They often have good bargains on tops, particularly sportswear - why pay more for something your only going to wear in the gym anyway? Again, the makes of the tops will vary greatly from week to week, but expect to see a lot of Elle, Miss Sixty, Betty Boop and similar type designers and occasionally a bit of Raplh Lauren. Underwear ...

Dive Into Those Rails

Advantages: good bargains, good brands
Disadvantages: seems cheap sometimes, dull presentation

...was tj maxx in america. tk maxx has just been built even nearer me so i have had a look through the rails. All of the clothes inside are on rails, mens rails, womens rails then there are shoes and home things. the clothes are normally put in categories like usually it's a full skirt rail then the sizes go up in order, they then have t-shirt rails and so on. i sometimes find this way of presenting clothes a bit cheap and off putting Many people I ...
...variety of brands found in TK Maxx, some very well known other unknown. In my visits here I have come accross D&G, French Connection, Adidas, Morgan, Kookai, Ralph Lauren, DKNY, Guess etc all good brands but when you are buying here you know you are getting reduced goods and that they are from a past season. This is why it's sometimes best to buy unknown brands. Some newer clothes are better presented at the front. The shoes are always in a mess ...

TKMaxx - My Heaven...And My Hell!

Advantages: Discounts, Great Stock
Disadvantages: Hard To Find!

My laptop has let me down and run out of charge, and I can’t remember where I put the charger! It’s late at night and I have the impulse to write, so I am scribbling away in an old notebook, although by the time you read this I will have typed it up and found the charger! Obviously. Anyway, enough sidetracking! On with the review... == What _is_ TKMaxx? == TKMaxx is a discount store which sells high end designer products at low end budget prices! ...
...to toiletries! == _Where_ is TKMaxx? == TKMaxx is not available on the web, for obvious reasons: the products sold there differ from day to day, and store to store. I suppose they could have an online warehouse, but, well, they don’t! Ooh, actually just had a look (am in the middle of fine-tuning the review, found laptop charger!) and they actually do now have an online store. Tuh, now I’m going to have to write a whole new paragraph on that! However ...

My heaven, your hell?

Advantages: bargains to be found
Disadvantages: messy

TK Maxx, well basically you love or you hate it and there is nothing in between, it is your heaven or your hell. Personally it is my heaven, I adore everything (most) things about it. I enjoy rummaging around in there trying to pick up a bargain and although it is a discount shop I always end up coming out with more than what I had bargained for! TK maxx is a chain store it has alo quite recently got an online store, however it does not hold clothes ...
...As I have small feet Tk Maxx offer a wide range of different style shoes going up from size 2 in ladies, although my feet aren't quite that small it is great to offer the range! It really depends on what they get in depending on the shoes they have in there but they offer Converses, Roxy, UGG'S, Bearpaws and many more. Again there is also a clearance section here. The rest of the store is a bit of everything they have childrens toys. This is a ...

A good way to Maxx out your credit card!

Advantages: some great bargains to be had, exciting finding them!
Disadvantages: can be disorganised, easy to get carried away

...to not one but two TK Maxx stores. One I must walk past to get to work, and one is five minutes away in a retail park I can visit easily on my break. I'd always wandered in now and then and usually found a lot of bargains, but having two right under my nose has led to me walking in to pass five minutes before work, and now I'm beginning to think I'm not actually saving money on things I need, but buying a lot of things I don't because they're on ...
...to pass time. TK Maxx sell clothes, bags, footwear, housewares such as towels, small items of furniture, etc, toys, luggage...well they do sell a lot! But of course, how much choice you have depends on what time of day you go and which bargain-hunting vultures have been before you! I definitely recommend going early in the day as they may have just had a new delivery. New clothes are supposedly on the edge of the rails. If you find something you ...

Take it to the Maxx guys and girls

Advantages: Cheap, wide selection and some unique pieces
Disadvantages: crowded, time consuming

...you can’t walk around with TK Maxx bags cause it’s not cool? The clothes certainly are cool and I will not let those ignorant people stop me. Do not however attempt to step inside if time is not on your side... Fair enough I might not be super rich yet to be shopping at Karen Millen (non-sale) but I will not be stopped when trying to look good in a bargain deal! Now for all of you that read my opinion on Jane Norman, Miss sixty and Mango ...
...sneak a bargain! TK Maxx was introduced to me by my best friend Sameena, who is now in Guatemala on her year of travel. She said it’s good and it’s cheap BUT don’t ever get caught with TK Maxx plastic bags cause it’s just not cool! Those from the States might be familiar with a discount retailer called TK Maxx. Like the store in the US, TK Maxx contains women's, men's and children's clothes and shoes as well as personal and ...

Designer Cloths at Bargain Prices

Advantages: Cheap, designer items, good quality
Disadvantages: Need time to look through the rails

...regret it at all. It’s TK MAXX. I hadn’t herd of it before. TK MAXX sells designer goods at really affordable prices. Like an outlet village! Being a student I felt like I had discovered the gold cave of Ali Baba’ and his thieves!!! Designer goods, we are all into it. Maybe because it just makes us feel good or because it has a known name on it! Let’s admit it: a Calvin Kline or DKNY pair of shoes is something I wouldn’t ...
...“his” trousers for £29,99 and two T-shirts (CC again) for £7,99 each!!! What a bargain! The quality is good (which is also important!) and the prices are more than affordable. The shop is no place where you’ll be pampered with sweet talk or cakes and you’ll have to invest some time in looking through the rails to find the bargain, but it is a well worth experience!! I have noticed that the girly cloths take the vast majority ...

TK Maxx A bargain or not

Advantages: The clothes can be very cheap
Disadvantages: Stores are out of the way and you have to work to shop here

TK Maxx (or for our American cousins TJ Maxx) Have you ever wondered what happens to the clothes/shoes/toys/underwear/objects/books/luggage/gifts/bedding at the end of the sales? Well TK Maxx is the answer. You will find the stores at the top of shopping centres or on out of town retail parks (both of which offer large spaces at cheap rents) and once you get inside you will not find a beautifully presented store with everything to hand (No Next ...
...category, which is where the TK Maxx shopping experience becomes something of an art, in spotting the gold, amongst the dogs (apologies for mixed metaphors) alongside a perfection of what my wife calls, the “TK Maxx shuffle” (the basic moves of which are as follows:) 1: Start with your size and category 2: Go to the beginning of the section and gently move along the rail, pulling the next hanger towards you (this will afford you a glimpse ...

Takes shopping to the maxx- but only sometimes!

Advantages: You can find amazing bargains and cheap designer clothes!
Disadvantages: You have to sift through the crap, you may go home empty handed.

...about what kind of shop TK Maxx actually is, it is an outlet store selling designer brands at knockdown prices. It sells clothes for all the family (womans, mens, kids) shoes, homeware, underware, luggage, bags, beauty products, toys, and probably more but I can't remember!However, it is not quite that simple. Different stores vary to the extreme. My local, the Inverness branch, could not be cleaner, tidier, and have a great variety of stock in all ...
...in Glasgow, I popped into TK Maxx there, and most of the clothes were on the floor, and the shop itself was dirty. See what I mean by 'it varies' ? Okay. Onto the nitty gritty! They really do sell designer clothes at quite a fair bit less than what you would expect to pay. But don't just expect to walk in, see something you like, and then walk out again. If you do really want to find something, set aside at least an hour. Seriously. The shop is ...

Who would say no to 60 percent savings

Advantages: Bargains
Disadvantages: Can take a while to find what you want

Tk Maxx opened in Colchester after C&A closed down to fill the shop!! I don’t think that there could have been a better shop!! It is on tow floors women on the fist floor and men on the second. **Tk Maxx** Tk Maxx sells itself by saying it is ‘the smarter place to shop’. There are savings of up to 60% on high street prices off famous label fashions. The range includes Womenswear, menswear, childrenswear, homewear, Lingerie, gifts, shoes, and jewellery. ...
...at TK Maxx. The clothes are displayed on rails according to size and category. However this is often in a mess and the wrong clothes are on the wrong rails, this can take a wile to find what you want, but you will end up with a great bargain!! But you will have to look which I know many people don't like doing but I promise you it is worth it in the end. The changing rooms are nice, and always clean and never full there are loads of them I have never ...
