Tk maxx yay or nay?

[Scrump21]

I have never really bothered with it, but as a bit of a bargain hunter I feel I may be missing out?!

Do you like it? What's the best thing you have ever found in there?

Nay..
It's on par with Trago Mills and that was like a giant under cover boot sale.
Disorganised, muddled.
Not a pleasant shopping experience.

I adore TKMaxx and have bought loads of bargains in my local branch:

Stella McCartney black evening dress £565, and black silk shirt £950 = £150

Stella McCartney gold evening top, £703 = £99

Bass Weejun loafers retail at £135: a gold pair for £23, a white pair (in lieu of an Easter egg), £32, a navy patent pair £12!

I've also seen Prada, Miu Miu and Balenciaga handbags less than half price, shearling coats reduced from £2500 to £500

Look for the Gold Label section and go regularly

I had to leave the fb group too. I made a very distinctive first post a number of months ago and got someone else to join who ended up being an absolute nightmare. In the end I just wanted out 😔 shame, it was quite amusing, but yy to the ‘personal blog’ side- ‘oh look it’s x wearing weird clothes again...’ and not much else. Plus they’re anally retentive about a few things on there.

Branches are quite variable. Some of just full of tat, some have a great selection but most it's a bit of a mix but you can find some great stuff if you're prepared to dig around. It's quite good for bags, suitcases and swimwear (since swimsuits seemed to become mega expensive lately for some reason)

Also I don’t think I shop at TKMAXX that much but I’ve had three little gifts in a few months through their rewards card. You can choose what you get but I have had two lots of nice bath salts (different scents) and a brownie making kit

My ex is in that fb group. Much as I love a t k maxx bargain, I didn't enjoy spending every Saturday in there so that he could look for "content" & post photos of himself in hideous jackets!

He he is he called mike

Le creuset is cheap as long as you are not particular about colour, also JosephJoseph kitchenware. I have also bought planters for the garden, DH buys sports wear and accessories. I have never bought clothes but bought a Kiplng bag from there

Some branches better than others but local one is rubbish and I haven't the patience.

If you want something specific then Nay
But if you have some time to kill, browsing can find some nice things

I have picked up some nice bits and pieces but never when I go specifically to buy something.

I was surprised the other day to find exactly what I wanted. I was after some small individual size lasagne dishes and like ke creuset but thought it’d be a long shot to find them in TK but went in and they had loads of le creuset one and they had different colours like I could get four grey ones or four blank ones or four navy ones... I was very pleased!

Also agree Joseph stuff too.

Love tk maxx, I got a pair of Ralph Lauren shoes a couple of years ago and I absolutely loved them. So gutted I don't have them anymore. Been able to get Michael kors jackets really cheap too. Also have amazing baby clothes

Another one who loves their homeware here. I have towels, throws, assorted air tight plastic food containers, fridge containers, glass vases, duvet covers, cushions, stainless steel pans, frying pans, resealable bag clips (love them), fake plants and probably too many nicknacks. Or ‘objets’ I should say.

Also a black coat from there that I’ve been wearing for 15 years, probably my favourite coat but it’s looking a bit shabby now : (

Yay! I have a reputation for most of my things coming from TKMaxx!!
