TJ Maxx

If you can find something clean or undamaged, then sometimes TJ Maxx can be a decent place. All else is the pits.
If you’ve been to one TJ Maxx, you’ve been to them all. Terrible staff, sloppy areas, lack of organization, damaged/​dirty stock… you get the picture. They need to make «patience» in a liquid form just so you can take a shot of it before you come into these stores. This location is no different than any of their others — and that’s not being complimentary.
TJ Maxx always has the appearance of a good will store and indoor flea market put into a blender. For some, they like it and that’s fine — but it’s not exactly good business. They only survive because of their pricing of some items. A lot of times, items are damaged, ripped, dirty, or even stolen, so always use caution when buying anything from here.
Just today, I saw loose items that would normally be in packages, some ripped packages (thefted) and just general slop. The employees are terrible here, from their obvious lack of work ethic to their attitudes generally. The customers are also problematic here — you get the typical slobs that come in here, but some are just rude. In a way, it kind of fits together… rude customers come to a slob pit.
If you come here for some of the decent deals, then that’s all good. Sometimes you can find decent items for a good price.
The parking lot is garbage. Poorly designed and annoyingly busy. The whole stretch of parking lots is connected in the shopping area, but this strip is probably the worst. It shares the space with McDonald’s, Carvel, a phone place, and a bank. If you drive in here, use caution.
All in all, when you look past the decent pricing of some (undamaged) items, it’s really nothing great and almost like a chore coming in here.

I like shopping at TJ Maxx. I understand… it’s not everybody’s bag of chips: it’s tight, you rarely find a sales associate on the floor, sometimes it’s a plus, sometimes a negative, (but then again, I wouldn’t want to be chased all over the store either. Please, let me be, and I’ll find what I’m looking for), and it’s a tad messy.
I get it! But, if I want to jazz up one or two or maybe three pieces, in my closet, in a heart beat, this is one of my first stops because it’s closed to home, and some of their pieces are funky. Could the place use some sprucing up? Of course. But you get it all here.
Listen, this is not Park Avenue or 5^th, but TJ Maxx has a pretty good selection of clothing, thumbs down for shoes– though, really cool rustic and unique accent furniture and accessories and good quality leather bags, are great.
