I decided that 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 womens
Bags - suitable for most
Accesories - hats, ties, belts and jewellry
Underwear - mens, womens, socks etc
Homewear - a pretty big range of bedding etc
Toiletries - stocking benetton perfumes 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 but since the stock changes so regularly, it's difficult to keep track of them.

One of the best things about the store is the sales. I picked up a quiksilver t-shitr for £6 that retails at about £30 and because things like that aren't at the height of fashion, it's ok to wear past season stock!

The childrens section of the store isn't very big but they do stock some nice clothes suitable for babies up to teens. You could buy a nice gift for someone from here at a fair price. There are a lot of branded goods for kids too.

The womens section is suitable for teens up to oap's really! The only problem is that you need to trawl through loads and loads of things before finding something that you like!

The mens section is somewhere that I very rarely go! I've know my brother to buy a lot of nice clothes from there at pretty good prices. It's a good place to go if you're on a budget but are heavily into branded clothes!

If you ever find something you like here, don't put it back down and say you'll get it another day, because you'll have one hell of a job finding it again!

If you wanna visit this store I would highly reccomend going at the start of the day, because by the end of looking round this store you'll be very very tired!! This also helps you avoid the huge queues that arrive very quickly!

I've never been to TK Maxx but I'm constantly hearing praise for it! I don't think there are any near me anyway, which is a shame.

I agree it is like a jumble sale!! I did however get a really nice top out of there that was unusual. :oD Thanks for the op

One of my favourite shops! Kids moan when I say let's check out what they have in TK Maxx first! Love a good bargain. Thanks for the op. Lisa
