Tj Maxx

Love this store! We live in Modesto but head up the hill to Sonora for a fun get-​away day. We always stop at this TJ’s. It’s always clean & organized & the staff is so helpful. Love the prices & their purse selection is awesome!

Yeah, A-​OK!
It’s a discount store, so, you know, don’t expect outstanding customer service or anything, but it is adequate. They do have a very clean and organized store, and a good selection; I shop here all the time.
Here’s what I HATE… They put those impossible-​to-​get-​off-​sticky-​as-​hell price tags on the FRONT of a picture frame, or book, or mirror. I spend more time trying to clean the goop off the stuff that the discount was even worth.
Please stop doing this.

Sonoraista!
Given the lack of shopping in Sonora, I am okay with TJ Maxx. Don’t get me wrong, the store is pretty awesome in itself, but I was hoping for a little higher end, Nordies… per se!
This TJ Maxx, like its counterpart Ross down the street, was very clean and organized. No random items in random spots, or stuff strewn about. Everything was organized and easy to shop through.
They had some very recognizable brand names here — Roxy, Addidas, Nike, Hurley, Steven Madden, etc. I’m a label whore, so I generally look for these types of things.
Another plus, was that they had a bunch of SF Giants stuff. This must be where the send all their out of season merch, cause you don’t find this in the 916 very often.
Overall, a fun trip with some unexpected finds at very decent prices! Thanks for the cheap thrills Sonora… I pretend to be boughie, but I love baller-​on-​a-​budget gems :)
I’m an undercover Maxxonista!

first off, TJ MAXX is WAY cleaner than ROSS. you can actually find things without hunting for an hour. Seeing how the store is one of the only Retail stores left in the area it is still pretty good. they offer almost everything. when I say that I mean by they don’t offer kids or men’s shoes because it is a smaller TJ MAXX. but you can find clothes, housewares, women’s shoes, purses, make up and bath and hair products, kids clothes and active wear. You can’t beat the prices. they carry stuff that you would pay way more in a hair salon for inclufin shampoos and conditioners and even straighteners. I got a Jansport backpack for $ 29.99 that retailed for $ 99.99 online. and I even found some Merrell hiking boots for arounf $ 59.99 that retailed for about $ 79.99 online. All in all, they have good deals and they get at least 2 truck shipments a week with new product.

So shopping in Sonora is a difficult task these days, or at least clothes shopping. In the past 6 months we have had Mervyns shut down and Gottschalks is on there way. TJ Maxx is the last good retail store in the area. It’s always clean and tidy, which makes the task of shopping during your lunch hour or after work very convenient and quick. Unfortunately for me, I can always find something, and I wonder why my closet is busting out the seam. The selection of brands is great! The home section is full of up to date styles and colors.
The only thing that bothers me, but isn’t really all that bad is the line that you have to wait in. For some reason I get irritated in the line. I think it’s more the woman that are usually in line with me nagging about something.
One of the better things about the store is their dressing rooms. They are always very clean, unlike Ross. The dressing rooms at Ross are a little scary and look like they are full of germs.
I know I shouldn’t do this, but I think I might just have to go to TJ Maxx during my lunch and by myself a little treat. Doesn’t that sound nice?
