What’s your best score at TJMaxx, etc?

Mine was a sumptuous pair of silk pajamas for like $50. So comfy and nice, especially on gloomy days !

Can you actually get real deals at these stores anymore? I thought the merchandise was basically manufactured for them now. The same with a vast majority of factory stores.

This. There are no 'scores' at these stores; haven't been for 20 years. Whatever you're finding there, even the 'one of a kinds", can be bought on nordstromrack.com or bluefly etc.

But sometimes I find a nice item that I like. It's just that I'm aware the pricing is appropriate for what I'm buying.

I don’t worry about pricing, I just spend minimal time shopping for specifically the things I need/want. I don’t look for “sales” beyond what shows up quickly for the thing I need and I think I end up spending less overall than when I used to go shopping in discount stores.

It’s a lot of crap and rarely a good find. I find the housewares section sometimes I just need dish towels, a spatula and socks and I want to go to one store, it’s cheaper than target.

I go there for one specific face cream and cheap home decor. I do like men's t-shirt for me, but I have plenty now.
A navy linen button down midi dress is my best find. Now I have to lose 20 pounds to fit into it.
The underwear and socks are all polyester.
All gold jewelry there has been so low quality, that my ears bleed.

Saks Off Fifth. It was a designer trunk sale return. I kept the receipt and look at it from time to time:

SFA Designer Market price: $3,500

I got it for $49.97!

Love seeing "Savings $3850.03" on the receipt.

last week I bought an Athleta quarter zip for $17. It retails, currently, for $99.

I get my DH Peter Millar polos there sometimes. Otherwise I’m just going there for cute cheap stuff that I don’t need to be good quality (like a top I might wear one season). It’s great for that.

Nordstrom Rack currently has 40x beaver hats from Bailey on sale for $189.

I got some decent Burberry boots from Jomashop for like 90% off list.

Long time ago they carried high quality children's clothing, as did Marshall's. I used to pick up beautiful little smocked dresses, beautiful little shoes, and the like. I spotted the same clothing brands selling for hundreds at high end boutiques.

I don't shop there anymore because these days those stores are like bazaars with people shoving past each other and rude staff. It's nasty. No thank you.

Factory stores are different.

Outlets are often factory stores in disguise.


TJ Maxx is a mix of leftover junk and some non leftover stuff to make the store not feel like a total waste
