What is wrong with the women that shop at TJMaxx?

[Anonymous]

I feel like you need a lot of energy and focus to shop there without getting immediately annoyed and worn out. So much trash to sift through. Most of us don't have that kind of patience, expensive bag or not. So not surprising people would be on edge there.

I mean ... it's a crowded TJMaxx. If you have a cart, you are going to be "blocking entire aisles." Most of us understand this, and just go back out of the aisle and around.

It sounds like you are just super jealous of this LV bag that you keep obsessing about.

OP, I learned real fast that I could download an app that will play annoying noises to dogs so I play that app when I’m walking around the TJ Maxx and the dogs go nuts and the owners have to get them the heck out of there. Oh man, I laugh till I cry. It is so darn funny.

Same. I’ve gotten really awesome stuff. But I go in with little to no expectations.

What locations do you go to ? Every time I've ever gone, it's always crowded and women just shove past you or start grabbing at the same clothes I'm looking at - like I literally was standing at a rack and another woman came up next to me and started grabbing at the SAME STUFF i was looking through. I wouldnt even do that to my mom or friend?! like What the hell

I go at like 10 AM on a Tuesday and never experience that. If you go on weekends or evenings, it’s full of working women who are the rudest.

Really? Are we going to drag the SAHMommy vs women-who-work fight into the thread about rude people at TJMaxx?

Being abusive toward animals ... so absolutely hilarious. You are so clever and funny. It's so cool that you have enough time on your hands to figure out how to do this and the download an app and wander TJ Maxx and take affirmative steps to upset dogs.

If she invites me to go with her, I try to let loose, but I end up being less fun than if we went to the mall…

I can’t handle the stuff being all mixed together, zero petite sizes (and if they were, they’d be mixed in/small section), low quality, random materials.

I love this Onion article about this:

TJ Maxx Recreates In-Store Shopping Experience With New Website That Randomly Scatters Products All Over the Place

That was brutally accurate and obviously written by a regular shopper.

I’m not looking for designer finds so maybe that’s the difference? I’ve found beautiful planter pots, other home goods like platters.

No dummy i said the MAIN aisle. which is like 5-6 feet wide. Three people could easily pass through it. She was acting like an absolute nutcase. I point out the LV because she's a snob shopping in a low end discount store. An entitled snobby lunatic

I'm not looking for designer things either, just anything that stands out and looks nice. I was browsing for nice spring clothes. Once again was reminded of what an awful place it is

Even it was ok to be blocking the aisle what part of “excuse me” warrants “watch where you’re going!!! You’re bigger than me!” that is literally insane

The secret to TJMaxx is going at opening time. Otherwise it gets so busy and claustrophobic.
