Driven by people saying how fab 'their'tkmaxx is can you name them so I can hunt out any near me and join in, round my way it's all Yankee candles and broken novelty dog bowls Hmm

Not Newmarket, that much I am sure of.

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 11/08/2012 23:08

Marking place with interest.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 11/08/2012 23:08

I always get good stuff near my in laws at Craigavon in NI

AgentProvocateur · 11/08/2012 23:23

Both the Glasgow city centre ones are good. Smile

croydon (out of town purley way)

Clapham Junction branch always yielded riches. The Leyton Mills one, not so much.

nickiminja · 11/08/2012 23:27

Lincoln and Newark.

thenightsky · 11/08/2012 23:27

Lincoln is shite.

Scunthorpe.... bloody amazing and fabulous.

Newark... hit and miss, but worth a visit.

thenightsky · 11/08/2012 23:28

LOLOLOL at such a close x-post with nick Grin

boringnamechange · 11/08/2012 23:30

Both Glasgow?? Where are they - argyle street and....? I'm probably being a bit thick but can't think of another.

East kilbride one is quite good - great Essie bargains! Grin

MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic · 11/08/2012 23:32

I'll second the Croydon Purley Way one, although I don't think the branch in Croydon proper (Centrale shopping centre) is that bad either. It has nice stuff, but suffers from having too much stock in too small a store. However, for some reason, the shoe selection in the Centrale branch is better than the Purley Way branch by miles so you should really swap between the two.

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 11/08/2012 23:34

I hate the Croydon one, it's such a mess i walk in and walk back out again. Maybe i need to get there early.

I may have to go to Purley Way this week.

AgentProvocateur · 11/08/2012 23:35

The big one on Sauchiehall St, boringnamechange.

TreacleSoda · 11/08/2012 23:36

Donegall Arcade one in Belfast is very good if anyone ever finds themselves there

Loveleopardprint · 12/08/2012 08:34

Any further south?
Find Exeter one rubbish.

Lovecat · 12/08/2012 08:40

If you're near Essex - Ilford branch recently refurbished and very good - used to be awful.

The one in Romford has split into 2 - normal TKMaxx for clothes/shoes etc and then a larger, more swish shop called 'HomeSense' which has all the homewares and yes, Yankee Candles (but no broken novelty dog-bowls that I've seen!). The HomeSense store is lovely, really nicely laid out and everything spiffy, the TKMaxx one is a bit of a jumble sale...

yellowraincoat · 12/08/2012 08:45

I'm in London, sometimes I go to the one in the City or the one opposite Foyles on Charing Cross Road.

Never found a thing, just wander around confused.

The one in Hatfield Galleria looks less messy than the one at Brent X (although I still can't ever find anything decent!).

Pickles77 · 12/08/2012 08:54

Oh hellhasno the Newmarket one is tragic!

PrimaBallerina · 12/08/2012 08:57

Ashford in Kent is where I've had all my best buys from and it's one of the least jumble sale like ones I've seen too.

LaGuerta · 12/08/2012 08:59

Guildford

ineedsomepeaceandquiet · 12/08/2012 09:00

Kew Retail Park. I hate TK Max but it doesn't look like a jumble sale and stocks a lot of designers.

RSVPentathlon · 12/08/2012 09:14

I second Kew Retail Park
