Marshalls

Marshall’s has a little bit of something for everyone, often at excellent prices!
Marshall’s in Hagerstown is one of the larger locations that I’ve been to. The menswear, shoe, and home & kitchen are all expansive. I recently read that the differences between TJ Maxx and Marshall’s are mainly concentrated between the shoes, jewelry, and purses. The new TJ Maxx that recently opened in Chambersburg has a larger variety of purses and has an actual jewelry counter, while Marshall’s in Hagerstown has a far superior shoe section. If you’re looking for accessories, TJ Maxx in Chambersburg has a much better selection (and you can buy articles of clothing free of taxes while in PA). If you’re a fan of shoes, Marshall’s in Hagerstown is the better option.
Like all Marshall’s and TJ Maxx stores, the fun is in the the thrill of the hunt. Marshall’s is always rotating their stock, so they always have new things to look at. I’m a huge fan of their food aisle. They have many gourmet non-​perishable food items that are great for entertaining or gift-​giving. Marshall’s also carries many artisan coffees and teas for caffeine lovers. Their kitchenware, bedding, and décor sections are also well-​stocked and full of quality items. You see brand name items in the mix all the time!
If you’re someone who loves bargain hunting, Marshall’s is a very fun store!

I have no idea how long this Marshalls has been open but the store seems to be relatively new. It is brightly lit and clean. It’s an average size store, not the largest or smallest Marshalls I’ve ever been in.
My tip for shopping at Marshalls is to skip the clothing section entirely unless you have a couple of hours to browse piece by piece. IMO the clothes are only dirt cheap if they’re no names. Designer brands are discounted but not necessarily more so than at a department store sale.
I love Marshalls for the beauty and home goods sections and this location did not disappoint! Here are the goodies I stocked up on:
Joico K-​pak Therapy Shampoo and Conditioner: $ 12 each for 1 liter bottles. I believe these retail for $ 35 each at Ulta.
Frederic Fekkai Glossing Conditioner: $ 12.99. Retails for $ 25.
Bliss Facial Toner: $ 9.99
Bliss Body Butter Lotion: $ 12
While I browsing an employee that was organizing asked if I was finding everything okay so that was nice. The cashier however, seemed to have laryngitis and communicated by pointing. Marshalls, I really hope you’re not making your employees come to work in that condition!
