***This giveaway is now closed to entries.***
I love, love, love me some Marshall’s and T.J. Maxx when it comes to finding bargains! Both stores are great places to find high-end designer clothes drastically reduced. So, when I was offered a gift card for each store I was so excited because, as a bargain shopper, these two stores are at the top of my list for frugal gems.
I always check into T.J. Maxx for good bargains. I inevitably always make it there for at least one item for my Christmas list. We’re not that close to a Marshall’s, but while we were on vacation this summer we swung in to hunt for deals. I purchased several new pieces for my fitness wardrobe for a steal! I hadn’t bought any new exercise clothes up until that point – because I guess when I think of clothes I’m going to sweat in, I don’t get picky :-) But, I was excited to find some high quality, name brands for a fraction of the cost. I’m still kicking myself for not getting the other Nike Dri Fit shirt in pink!
Anyhoo – on to the giveaway! I have up for grabs two $25 gift cards: one $25 T.J. Maxx AND one $25 Marshall’s gift cards. I will be selecting two random entries as the winners.
To have a chance at winning one of these gift cards, please leave me a comment and tell me what the best bargain you have found at T.J. Maxx or Marshall’s during your frugal shopping. That, of course, is assuming you have shopped there. If you haven’t shopped there – just leave me a comment! Of course, please leave your email address in case I can’t find you at a blog!
This giveaway will end on December 18 @ 10p (EST).

I just went there Saturday and got a good deal on english breakfast teas, coffee, scone mixes, and chocolates to put together a basket.
Oddly enough, our Marshalls and TJ Maxx are in the same shopping center, just doors down from each other. It’s obvious they carry the same things, so I usually only visit the TJ Maxx. Strange!
hmmmm…haven’t been there in a while, but the last thing I can think of is some cute shoes for work.
There’s a Marshalls near me that has lots of kids’ Stride Rite shoes. I bought my son’s summer sandals there for just $13.
We just got a ton of cute surf shirts for some of the cousins for Christmas at TJ Maxx. Name brands, but affordable!
I would love to use these. The last time I was there was about a year ago but I found a great sweatshirt on the clearance rack for 4.50. This is a great store but it is hard to go in there and not go over board for me.

I love TJMaxx!!! I lived in England for 3 yrs. with my husband’s job, and in the UK it is called TKMaxx :-)) My friends and I made frequent trips there, always wandering around looking for fantastic items for cheap! Anytime I need a birthday present for a childrens party, TJMaxx is the place to find it. They have Melissa and Doug wooden toys and puzzles at such a GREAT bargain. I am so broke right now, and a gift card would be right up me alley! :-) mama underscore kam27 at yahoo dot com
I don’t shop there too often, but last year we were desperate for some modest nightgowns for my daughter. We finally found affordable nightgowns at Marshalls. I was thrilled. I’d love to win the gift cards, because she needs new ones! Thanks!!! Jennifer momofknt at yahoo dot com
I got my ski jacket at Marshall’s last winter for about $30. Similar ones at a sporting goods store go for $150 or so!
I found a 30$ under armour hat for 7.00! I was so excited and I always find tons of holiday decorations at Marshall’s, I love it :)
Purses for me and my mom always finds the greatest wedding presents there.
annieblom@gmail.com
Last x.mas, we got some teas & coffees for a few family members there…& just last month, Andy went in there & got a 'bomber' hat for $15 (it's normally $30)–he thinks it was 50% off b/c the tag was printed/sewn in upside down! haha.

I have read your blog from time to time (through Money Saving Mom usually) and I had no idea that you lived so close to me! I am in Centerville. I read all about you in the Dayton Daily today :)
I just moved here from Florida so I was in desperate need of winter clothes since I’v never been in this kind of weather!! I was on a budget so I headed to TJ Maxx in Tri County, believe it or not I found a super cute Zara trench coat for $35!!! I am a super fan of this brand and I was amazed to find it there and at that price. That coat could’ve easily cost $100 or more regular price.
I also found some designer gloves and scarves. I’ve been to bth stores before but never found such great deals as I did in the one here :)

We have T.J. Maxx here finally! I once purchased a whole wardrobe in one trip for under $200. Skirts, blouses, jackets, pants, scarves, etc. I was a single working mom and student on a really tight budget! Those beautiful clothes lasted years and held up to the wear and tear of my work, school, kids. I love that place.
I love browsing the kids books and DVD’s. TJMaxx is also my MIL’s favorite store, as I suspect will be evidenced again at Christmas :)
The best bargain we have ever found at TJMaxx was for our then 3 year old. They had the Thomas DVDs with special edition trains attached at a fraction of the price. They also had great Thomas accessories that were electronic which fit with the wooden track. All of these were bought for much, much less than we would have paid at another store. I’d love to win!!My email is embreit@gmail.com
I found the cutest Christmas handtowels to make into bibs for my granddaughter and they had VTech Smile Cartridges for $4.99 each.
Marshalls has great shoes at amazing prices…
The best deal I have gotten at tj maxx recently is a $55 pair of jeans for $6. I love TJ Maxx and Marshalls!
I love both of these stores! I get ties for almost nothing at TJ Maxx and I buy my girls clothes at Marshalls-outfits for under $10. Thanks for the giveaway!!!

I am new to the blogging world, but not new to the bargain hunting and coupon world of which I have been working hard at for over 10 years. I am a married homeschooling mother of 4 ages 6,5,2, and 4 mths and I just want to say thank you for all your help and all the hard work!! I love TJ Maxx and Marshalls and I would say my best bargain was at both stores on the same day – I got 2 Kathy Van Zeeland handbags(one at each store) that were retailing that very day in the malls and on QVC for $89.99 and I got them for $29.99 each! I was so excited that has been around 2 years ago and I am still carrying both and they look great! Thanks again!! jjrhodamomof4 jcastle2@cinci.rr.com
Great giveaway! The last time I was in Marshalls I found some wicking work out shirts. They’re great and they were less than $10 each.
I’ve never shopped at Marshall’s, but I love TJ Maxx. Hmmm…I think it’s a tie on my best deals there. I got an awesome deal on all of my daughter’s 12 month clothes, but I also got a great deal on all my winter decorating stuff. Either way, I was really happy to find both!
I love your webpage…was looking for ebate regarding holiday double cash and came across your informative site. TJ Maxx is my favorite store. We don’t have a Marshall’s here. Let’s see…my best deal was a set of nickle finish shower curtain hangers for $2.40…looks like a $40-$50 buy..love that place!! THanks for chance at giveaway. AW at jwajw@cox.net
It wasn’t too recent, but my favorite body butter is from Bliss Spa. They stopped carrying their “plum plum” scent. I found it at TJ Maxx for $14.99. Now with more kiddos, I can’t even seem to splurge for the $14.99, but thankfully, I use mine sparingly and have made it last!
I love there hand soaps and lotions, that’s always the first thing I look at when I go there!!!

I like TJ Maxx and Marshalls for shoes. I often find great deals there. Thanks!

I bought a pair of classy white and black heels at TJMaxx while I was in college. I can’t count the number of times people asked me where I bought them and how much money I shucked out for them. If only they knew I paid a few mere dollars for them!
I LOVE BOTH stores!
They always have POLO shirts on sale LOW LOW below prices and I stock up on them because they make my little man look super cute in them.
Please, count me in,
Thanks.

Those stores are the best! I was invited to a lingerie shower for my good friend just before her wedding and I was able to find the cutest babydoll and panty set for her for only 7 dollars. Which was great since I had already spent so much on the wedding present! Would love a gift card to help out with Christmas!
I am so glad that I found your blog- thank you for all the info you provide.
I would love to win , I love these stores! Thanks!
Well, I haven’t shopped at TJMAX or Marshalls in a while but I am sure I will be running to either of these stores if I have a free gift card whooo! I would have to say the best deals I came across at tjmax were some toy deals. Last year I did a layway there and purchased several maked down presents for my little monkeys.
I haven’t shopped TJM or Marshall’s in years but when I did frequent the store more often, I usually found a pretty good deal.
lm underscore wms at hotmail dot com
I love TJ Maxx & Marshalls! My most recent deal was a digital camera case (going to be a stocking stuffer) for $1.77!
Love your blog! I just bought a very cute winter coat at TJ Maxx. In fact it was so cute my sister in law had to go to a different store so she could get one as well. Luckily I am in Vegas and she is in SF.
I just love both of these stores. As a matter of fact I just went to Marshall’s the other day and picked up some great toys for less then half of what the “toy stores” were selling them for :) HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Ohio State Jersey last year for $7.99. Thanks, Dawn Williams
I like to buy kids clothes or books at TJMaxx. I can get Carter’s outfits for the kids for $3.00 and I give them as baby gifts!
tchalk_22 @ yahoo . com
My fav buy at TJ lately has been a collection of little golden book stories cheap! I saw the same book at a book store for triple what I paid for it. My 3yo loves the animal stories.
angelage@bellsouth.net
I ALWAYS find great deals on name brand bras there, but my best deal was a winter wool coat for under $20!
I got a great purse for under 20.00 at Marshalls!
We have been stationed in Alaska w/the U.S Coast Guard for the passed three years and oh how I have missed my T.J Maxx! I can’t think of just one particular bargain I got in the passed I guess my favorite would be the infant/toddler clothing sets, so cute and great prices! I can’t wait to go there now that we are back in the lower 48 states!
Shaster00@yahoo.com
I love TJmaxx. I think most of the best deal I have found were clothes and toys for my kids. Also a perfume that my mom loves and can’t usually find anywhere!
mari@conte.com
I love love love TJ MAX. My best find (and it has been awhile ago) was when I found cool Philosophy bath gift sets. I scarfed all I could up to use for gifts last year. They were around a 40 value for 15. Awesome gifts. You have to always be on the look out at TJ’s you never know what you might find!!

I haven’t been to either yet but this would be a GREAT excuse to give it a try. We have both not too far from us.
My best deal was at TJ Maxx. I had alrady purchased a rounded shower rod at BB&B for $59.99. I got the same one at TJ Maxx for $19.99. Can't beat that!

warren6462@roadrunner.com
I haven’t shopped at either this year, but would love to use a gift card to pick up those last few gifts!
my favorite find was a market tote for $9.99. i have bought them 4 times. When they are monogramed they make a great gift. thanks for this opportunity.
This a great place to find birthday gifts for children. They always have great deals on educational toys and puzzles.
I have found some really great deals on baby clothes. Anytime I can get brand name clothes early 80% off I happy.
I LOVE both stores. I have a TJ Maxx within a mile of my house and shop there often. The Marshall’s is farther away, but when I’m in that area I always stop to check it out.
As a mom, I of course rarely shop for clothes for myself. I recently was in desperate need of a couple of pairs of jeans, though, as I wear them until they have holes! I scored two pairs of very nice designer jeans – that fit great – at TJ Maxx for $21, total!
I like to find baby gifts there. I have an amount I normally spend on baby shower gifts, and it always goes further at these places.
I just went to Marshall’s to get my husband some Christmas presents. I got a couple of really nice sweaters for less than $20 a piece!
Tera (tera_amlin@yahoo.com)
I love Marsall’s however it has been so long since I was last there, I can’t remember my best deal
I love both of these stores! I just bought my mother-in-law some great cashmere lined gloves at Marshall’s for Christmas this year.
I have not even begun my Xmas shopping this year!! Got nearly everything at Marshall’s last year. Great bargains in all the departments. My grandaughter loved the earrings and scarf I purchased there last Xmas. Expect to start shopping this week.

My best deal there was a $100 fleece activewear jacket for $19.99! It has been the best jacket ever!
I’ve gotten three beautiful pictures for the wall in my office for only $5 each!
I haven’t been there in a while, however, my mother I think lives there. She swears on that place.

I haven’t been there in a long time – I need to.

I miss shopping at Marshalls when we moved to a new town a few years ago. I’m just now getting into the habit of going to TJ Maxx.
I bought a coat for my husband, and a wallet there last week.
I always get the best deals on men’s clothes at T.J. Maxx, they even have shirts with 36″ sleeves to fit my tall husband!–Lila
lbayer @cox dot net
They usually have great gifts, home items, kids’ books and clothing – there is always some good deals to find!
Love, love both these stores for home goods as well as kids clothes.
I love both stores; my best find was a coat at TJ Maxx for a fraction of the regular price.
I haven’t really shopped much at either place, but would love to check them out sometime.
je_leas@hotmail.com
I guess I’d have to say the best deal I’ve gotten there was the summer I needed a new dress for a singing group I was traveling with. I was the only girl, so I didn’t have to worry about matching anybody. I was given $50 and told I could buy 1 or 2 dresses. (Yea, they already knew I was a bargain shopper!) I knew I’d have to do some hard searching though, to get a dress for that price. I was joking to some of the others in the group that I was going to go over to Jones New York to pick out my dress. Well, when I did do my shopping at TJ Maxx, I came out with a two piece dress for $25! Guess what brand? Jones New York!
I found some cheap girls shirts for my daughter for Christmas at TJMaxx.. tlbrownfield@cinci.rr.com
I love love love these stores! I find great finds all the time! I actually go to these discount stores to rummage thru their clearance racks! (I am super cheap.) I would say the best thing I have ever found was pair of black bandolini high heels… for $3! I have worn the fire out of these shoes, and have gotten more than my money back on them, that’s for sure! I would love to win to be able to scour the clearance to see what else I can find! With those kind of prices, these giftcards would last forever! lol!
I have always shopped at both places. Love them both!
Dmsik@aol.com
I got a Theory cashmere sweater last year at Tjmaxx for $29.00. At tjmaxx it was orginally about $100. I love that place!

jnhahn(at)realliferosary(dot)com
It’s been a while since I have been in either store, but I have gotten great deals on beautiful Christmas stockings in the past, a well as designer shirts. I’d love to have a gift card to try them out again!

Jessica at heff04@gmail.com. I love TJ Maxx and Marshalls! The best deal I ever got at TJ Maxx was a Micheal Kors purse, originally $350 and I got it for $50! Designer bag at a discount price! At Marshall’s, my hubbie gets cheap name-brand shoes there and I got a new leather coat with fur lining for about $50.
I love the deals I find at Marshalls. I am almost always able to find a $250+ handbag in the handbag section. My best deal was a large black leather coach totebag for $70. The bag was that current’s season and went for $475 at the coach store. I had a small problem with the zipper on the inside where a cell phone would go. But overall a fantastic deal/
The TJ Maxx near me almost always has New Balance shoes for about $30 – I pick them up whenever my walking shoes run out. Thanks for the great giveaway!
I bought a “Seven for all Mankind” designer denim skirt at TJ Max for $29.99…a fraction of the price for what you’d pay at Nordstrom!
I can’t think of my best deal from there but I love to shop at both!!!
creativeboarder@yahoo.com
I think my favorite, most memorable deal I found at TJMaxx was a MegaBlocks Piano toy purchased 6 years ago. My daughter was 18 mos old and had played with it elsewhere. We didn’t have much money at all that Christmas and I really wanted to buy that toy for her. Wal-Mart was selling it for around $25 and that was just too much for us. I had gone into TJMaxx and found it for less than $15! I was so estactic! They only had the one too! I really felt like someone was looking out for us…
I would love to be able to create more holiday “bargain” memories and would be so excited to win this!
I have never shopped at Marshalls, but I think I’ll make a trip there and check it out before Christmas. I always get get deals on tops for my teenage daughter at TJ Maxx!!!
dsmith81@myway.com
A $280 Anne Taylor fully lined 2 piece suit for $80
I can find children’s books for $3- 4. The last time I was there I found some decorative plates for $3- $4 too!

The best deals I find at TJ Maxx are on kids clothes. I work really close to one so I frequent it about once a week. On my last run I got my daughter 3 shirts, 1 sweater and 1 pants and my son 1 wind suit, 2 t-shirts and a pair of Jammies for $28.64. I also must add that all of these were Ralph, Calvin and Juicy Couture. I was so excited. I find that you have to go at least once a week to catch the really good stuff on sale.
Tassiem@zoomtown.com
I really don’t shop there much, but I see I need to! I did get a picture for my wall there once, I remember. I think it was on sale for $10.

Hmm, my Converse shoes for 19.99 at TJ Maxx, awesome deal. I really needed a new pair of shoes.
jtsang2 at gmail dot com
home goods in general. towels, bedding, and kitchen stuff.
my favorite find, not the cheapest, was an all clad dutch oven. I paid about $30 for it, but it retails for over a hundred. I love it, and I use it just about every time I cook!
ruth.berry@gmail.com
Marshall’s has the best deals on dinnerware. I found a Portmeirion platter there for $35. It would have been $90 at the department store.

I got a $60 JJ Cole winter bundler for $20 that was a steal! I love TJ Maxx and Marshalls!
We have TJ Maxx here, but no Marshalls. In Ca, we had both. My last good deal was a pair of super cute 9 West heels…at a steal of a price!
A few years ago I cane across a really great deal on a Disney Princess roller suitcase at TJ Maxx…. right before we were leaving on vacation! It was perfect!
kmansfi416 at yahoo dot com
I just got a GREAT Bargain at TJ’s last Friday for a holiday party…. at $204.00 designer dress for $30!!!!
jn.kaufman at yahoo dot com
I haven’t actually been to either for quite a while. I used to find some great steals at Marshall’s. I once bought a pair of $60 designer shoes for $19.99. Woohoo!
Ralph Lauren towels were a great deal. Same towels that were at Macy’s but much less expensive.
ttmogan at yahoo dot com
I don’t usually shop at either place but I should probably start!

I have not actually shopped at TJ Maxx or Marshall’s just because there isn’t one in my town, however, my daughter loves these stores and she now lives near them, so this would be a great gift for her. Thank you for the entry.
I haven’t shopped at TJ Maxx in a while. I am not sure why I haven’t. I know they have good bargins. I hope I win!!

You have fabulous giveaways!
I like both TJ Maxx & Marshalls, but I seem to find my best deals at our local TJ Maxx. My favorite finds(great price) has been baking dishes. I have found a few real nice ones that are glazed in various colors. Sometimes I have even found them clearanced which makes them even less expensive.
Other deals I have found at TJ Maxx includes socks & underclothes.

I think my best deals have been Thomas Wooden Railway Trains. I’m not
sure of the price, but they were greatly discounted from the local toy
stores. Also, they were the limited edition trains. Thank you, Camille
Hey, thanks for the chance. Haven’t been there for a long time, but I remember getting some nice baby toys at T.J.Maxx and I know I’ve gotten little Christmas gifts like coffees or jams at Marshall’s!

Spent 99 cents on a beautiful 8×10 picture frame that retailed for over $30.
kaismahma at gmail dot com
My favorite bargain I found at Marshall’s was a leather jacket for my son 2 years ago. We buy stuff like that a little big so that it will last more than one year, and it lasted two years until he outgrew it and it’s still in good condition. We only paid 19.99 for it but it retailed for over $50!
About a year ago I searched and searched for an Asian cast iron tea pot to place on my fireplace, but I could only find them for between $30-$40. I went to TJMaxx and found the perfect one for just $7.99. It made my day, month, and year!!! I just love that place!!!
kerren@fuse.net
Every year 3 of my girlfriends and I have a gift exchange and spend $30 for one gift. This year we decided to do an ornament exchange instead, due to the economy. I went to TJ’s on Friday and found 3 ornaments for $1 each with a inspirational friend message on each one! So I saved $27 and found more meaning in the gifts too! TJ’s is the best!
Purses! I’m a purse lover and can never pass up searching their racks for a good deal tucked in there.
I have never bought anything from either store, but have have browsed there stores. They have some good stuff, I just can’t afford to buy anything right now.

I bought two pairs of pajamas for the grandkids that were $15.99 a pair and bought both for only $6.00.
I was happy! Thank you so much!
I love TJMaxx! Just last week, I found a LeCruset baking dish for $14.99 – what a steal!
Thanks for all the snacks!

Thanks for all you do for us.

T.J.Maxx is the Ultimate! Or should I say MAXXimum! I have gotten so many great deals there (since they built one 10 minutes from my house!!). The most recent deals I got were Christmas presents for two of my seven grandchildren! I got a Speed Racer Transforming car for 9.99 and a toy for my younger grandson for 10.99. T.J. Maxx is why I dont go bankrupt at Christmas…or any other time of the year for that matter!
I think the best deal I got was on at TJMax, a toy for my son. Anyways, thanks for the give away!
Never shopped at either but would love to give it a try! Thanks!

I actually always find amazing deals on housewares…added bonus because one size fits all!! jtmkcm at yahoo dot com
I love both these stores– I get the majority of my clothes, shoes, accessories there. I can usually find things that are unique and just my style.
The best shopping experience I ever had at Marshall’s was when I had a wish list I was trying to fulfill for a couple of girls from a family that was struggling, around Christmas time last year. The girls had some very specific requests, including a hair straightener, scrapbooking supplies, a fairy full-size comforter, and a jewelry box with a little fairy that spun around. I had no idea where I was going to find a jewelry box like that! I stopped at Marshall’s one evening and took a walk around- and lo and behold, I found the hair straightener, a full-size fairy comforter, a scrapbooking set, and, to my extreme shock, a jewelry box with the fairy that spun around. All at great prices, of course. That shopping trip gave me chills!
I once found a Michael Kors silk dress – originally $190 (at dept store) on clearance for $10! Score! Thanks, Andrea, for all your help!
Right after I moved here, my SIL and I went to a TJ Maxx. I had never been to one before. I was shocked when I found a pair of Easy Spirit Sandals, my size, 10 AA. I can’t remember what I paid, but you can I bet I snapped them up !!!
We don’t have those stores close but can do the online thing. Thanks for the op to win!

Well I’ll admit I’ve never purchased anything from T.J. Maxx but if i’m lucky enough to win, it will be fun making my first purchase there.
newyeard@msn.com
The best thing I’ve found at TJMaxx was a little chest-like box that I gave to my mom. I contact my grandparents, her friends, her family, etc and asked them to reminisce about how they met my mom, what they did, why they loved her, and added pictures. She said it was the best present ever! I look forward to finding those unique, useful items that can change a life!
I haven’t shopped at either so I’d love the chance to win.
I worked at TJMaxx from the time in high school right up until my second year teaching. I LOVE that store. I got way too many deals to even begin to explain, but one of the best was a huge Abercrombie shipment we got while I was in college. I got the same shorts my friends bought for about $40 for only $8.
I found my favorite perfume at Marshals for $14.99 that normally sells for $59.99 at other stores. It seems to go quickly at that price so if I see it I buy all they have. Love me some perfume!
I don’t get to TJMaxx very often, it is a bit of a drive, but I did find a great backpack for my daughter that lasted for preschool and kindergarten. Any backpack that can last two years is a steal!
Like you, I LOVE T.J. Maxx. One of my favorite finds was a large black picture frame with several openings (hard to explain) but a bargain at $19.99. It is in my living room with black and white pictures of my daughter when she was a newborn.

We don’t have a Marhalls and I haven’t been able to afford to shop for the last 2 years after becoming a single parent again, so I haven’t been to TJ Max in a long time. I know they have great stuff and clothes that actually fit my small body.
The best deal I’ve found at Marshall’s was last year when I got a snowsuit/coat for my daughter for around $20.
holamelitta@hotmail.com
I haven´t shopped there in a while but you´d better believe that if I won a gift card I´d skeedaddle on over to find some deals. Thanks for the chance.

I just found a gorgeous Lilly Pulitzer skirt for next summer. I can’t afford to shop at the Lilly store, so I was SO excited to find this and it was in our budget! LOVE TJ Maxx!!

Got my husband a leather lap top bag years ago for Christmas.
He still carries it and it looks great even after all this time.
Sweet!

I found some great deals on Levi’s for my nephew!! Hope I win! tnt_dynomite720@yahoo.com Thanks, Teryn
I’ve found tons of cool things there. A bunch of shoes, lots of snacks. Yesterday I was there and found an adorable origami kit. It comes with a little seascape and you make origami turtles and fish to go in it.
I’ve found so many deals at both places! I have a weakness for blouses and always score nice ones.
My favorite were some reduced baby clothes for like a buck a piece!
I’m a TJ Maxx junkie! I have found so many great deals there.
I find lots of great deals on kids clothes at these stores!

I’ve found some great deals on clothing and pj’s for my piXies at TJMaXX. ThanX
Marshalls and TJ Maxx usually have a great selection of picture frames. Add a nice photo of the kids and you have a great gift for the grandparents.
Last year I had a giftcard to use and found an awesome hoodie jacket. I loved it because it has an anchor on it and reminds me of a tattoo I’m working on. I still wear that jacket all the time! It was such a great deal and the quality of it has lasted all year and has a TON of life left in it.
I also recently bought my one year old a lot of toys there. I found a Tigger (and pooh) book box set for $5 one time! I think it had around 8 board books in it. Pretty sweet deal! I LOVE the toy sections there!
The only thing I suggest is that you try on all clothing before buying it because different designers design a size 12 a little differently than the other. It’s more heartbreaking for me to return it once I’ve brought it home than it is to put it back on the rack after I realized it was too small or too big in the dressing room.

I would say Marshall’s. My husband has found some really great deals on clothes there. For a man to find really great deals — that is pretty good!
Yes…I love both stores. The last great buy I bought was at TJ’S. Clothes for our 2 little Grand Daughters. I also picked up some home decor stuff for me.
I have found a ton of great deals at T.J. Maxx, the most recent great deals I have found though was maternity clothes. I got 2 tops and 2 pairs of pants for $18. Now that is a steal!
We also have a Marshalls and TJ Max just down from one another. I don’t mind … I think it keeps the competition up and prices down.
About the best deal I can remember offhand was for my now 16 year old. I got tired of hearing the cries and pleas for a pair of new jeans — rather than hand-me-downs, garage sale finds, or consignment stores. She wanted new designer/name brand jeans. Eventually I gave in, handed her a $20 bill, and told her I would go no higher.
When the shopping dust cleared we had a pair of jeans she wore until they disintegrated (literally) two years later, 2 tanks, 2 adorable blouses for layering, a belt, earrings, a hair adornment, and … drum roll, please … change. Okay, so the change came to just over $1. Still, I couldn’t have done much better going to our local consignment store.

My dh took me to Marshalls to let me pick out a dress as a christmas gift. For the price he had in mind to spend ($50) I didnt get just 1 I got 5!
hottmommie84 @yahoo .com
When I was still working, I got the most beautiful silk shantung suit at TJ Maxx for about $50. I loved that thing! I wore the crap out of it! Pick me, help a sister out!! :)
I love both stores. The best deal I have gotten was at TJMaxx, a pair of boys Calvin Jeans for only $3!
Mom2nji @gmail .com
the best bargain…7 pairs toddler boys undies for $1.99!!
camagee07@hotmail.com
Best deal was at TJ Maxx ~ I got an Anne Klein skirt that was priced at $110 retail for $7.00.
KLeach4112@aol.com
I buy almost all of my husband ties at TJMaxx. They have awesome prices and great quality. Thanks
Many years ago I got a wonderful and affordable dress at Marshall’s to wear to a wedding. I’ve since worn it for other dressy occasions as well. It costs more to have it dry cleaned once than it did to buy it at Marshall’s!
Thanks for offering the giveaways!
Lora, readingcoach (AT) yahoo (DOT) com
I think I’m the only person who has never shopped at either store. Winning a gift card would be a great way to check one of them out.
This is a great gift card giveaway! I recently visited TJ Maxx looking for some jeans for my toddler son. In no time I was in and out with a pair of Eddie Beaur (sp?) jeans for $5.00. Gotta love such great deals on name brand clothing!
TheBovees49091@yahoo.com
I would have to say they have GREAT prices on their children’s books and sports stuff. My hubby loves football and that stuff can be super pricey everywhere else

Just found Marshalls this year! I don’t know why I hadn’t shopped there before – I did find some great Christmas presents but the best find was for myself – found some beautiful oversized egyptian cotton bath towels marked down from 12.99 to 3.00 each! There were 8 left and I bought them all!–Maggie C
I always find good bedding deals at TJ Maxx! They have great prices.
Thank you!

I found a great pair of jeans in the clearance section for $5!
The best bargain I found at TJMaxx is my 38 year old son. He works at one. ritadecker@hotmail.com
I always find the best stationary there. Plus, cooking pans. Go figure! I hardly look at the clothes.
I love T.J. Max and Marshall’s. All my interior decor comes from those two stores. I am very lucky that both stores located close by me. Yesterday when i went there, i saw a perfect Christmas present for my 2 year old son: Thomas the Train hood shirt.
I haven’t shopped at these stores in a while, but I believe the last time I was atMarshalls, I found a great basic black tank with thisk straps- so I could wear it in the summer modestly or in the fall and winter underneath other shits. I believe it was on clearance for 2 dollars!!
Thanks for doing this giveaway!

I’ve never been to Marshalls, TJ is the top choice for me. Although I haven’t bought anything for myself in a while, the last great deal was a pair of Steve Madden dress shoes that I wore the bottoms right off of. :) Thanks for the entry.

I grew up in AK and never saw a TJ Maxx until I moved here to Colorado. I have yet to wander through it’s doors, but one of these days when I go to the big city, I’m going to take a look. :)
I get good deals on handbags. Sometimes it is hit or miss. Keep Looking and you’ll see some cute stuff!

I love both stores although I don’t have a Marshall’s nearby. We once found a pair of boots that were in the stores for 200 and we got them for less than 50 at TJMaxx.

madamerkf at aol dot com
A couple of years ago I got a beautiful Fitz and Floyd Christmas cookie jar (with Father Christmas surrounded by foxes, rabbits, etc.) for practically nothing after Christmas. I think someone must have returned it or it never would have still been there. I have also always gotten my sons’ Columbia winter coats there at great prices!
I have found so many great deals on high-quality kitchen items at both of these stores!
I love to buy the Kona Coffee from there. It is my favorite!
There is a Marshalls right next to my son`s Rheumatologist. Love to swing by there and browse. I always get the boy`s school backpacks from there

I just got the best deal on a quilt for our little boy’s new room (we’re moving him up to a big boy room soon). :-( Anyway, we got him a really cute quilt for a steal, less than half the cost of even the cheapest we could find other places. We also picked up some great chocolate and some shirts for next to nothing! Love the clearance sections!

The best deal I found at Marshall’s were some sheets for our king size bed. Only $30.00 for the set and they are so soft!
I love Marshalls! The best bargain I’ve found there lately are girls dresses that come with a matching dress for the 18″ dolls. My daughter loves these and I love not having to pay a ton of money for them at the American Girl site.
I found an awesome “spy kit” at TJ Maxx a few weeks ago for $8. It had binoculars, voice recorder, listening devices, etc. My kids love it!
Hello,
I bought some darling home decor at both places a while back…Love those stores!

Oh my goodness!! I actually have a Marshall’s right down the street from where I work. I can’t tell you how much money I have saved on “designer” name brand clothes for my teenage daughter. ( she also seems to have taken ownership of my Oscar De La Renta Sunglasses I got there for $7.00) And I can always find a really cool Bunco gift there too!!! I have shopped T J Maxx also but seem to find more at Marshall’s.

the best deal I got was at TJ Maxx – a CA king comforter set with bed skirt, two pillow shams, one square pillow and a roll pillow all for $59.99. Granted it’s gold and a little grandmotherly, but I couldn’t pass up the deal. TJ Maxx is best for household items.
The best bargain I have ever found at TJ Maxx is this beautiful serving dish for $10.00
I bought a donney burke purse that retailed for 275.00 and i bought it for 76.99

I shopped at a Marshalls years ago when I lived in another state and I dont remember the bargain I found there. I think it might have been a jacket for my daughter. I never shopped at a TJ Maxx as it was too far away.
However a TJ Maxx has opened up about 45 minutes from me so I would love to check them out.

I love TJ Maxx! I used to shop there all the time in college! It’s been so long since I’ve been there, though – I can’t remember the last time I’ve bought clothes for myself – I could use an excuse!
You know, I’ve never actually bought anything that I can recall from either place…I would love to start though!
I love TJ maxx, I try to get there regurly to check out their bargains. The last great deal I found was a purse for 9.99.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE shopping for my purses at TJ Maxx. Name brands without the name brand price tag.
I always find great deals at Marshalls.
One of the best was $300 sheets for $80.
janetfaye (at) gmail (dot) com
I always get great deals on calendars, photo albums, frames etc.. I mostly look at home stuff and love the great deals! charlenegale at yahoo dot com
I do some major bargain damage at Marshalls every time I visit, I’ve purchased pretty much all my sheet sets there, they are never irregulars, high thread count, low prices, but my all time favorite was a complete bedding set that I found walking in the door, I fell in love with it, grabbed it, and as I went along the aisles, I found matching decor items for that set, even matching PJ’s, when I got my haul to the counter it was like the tv comedy show sketch, I thought my cashier was going to leave me standing there while she scooped stuff up for herself. Everyone raves about my bedroom,how it looks out of a magazine, if only they knew just how little I paid for it all.
$160 Michael Kors black sleeveless evening top for $29.99!! It’s my favorite!
The best bargain I’ve ever gotten at T.J. Maxx was a leather jacket I bought in 1992. The Reg Price (Retail) was $200.00 I bought it on sale for $129.00. Sixteen years later I still have it, it was the best purchase ever!
I love both stores, I was actually just in TjMaxx today and got myself a new pair of Columbia gloves for $13!
autumn398 (at) yahoo.com
I went there this morning and got my sister a great pair of tweezers for $3.99 that retail for $14.99. She’s been wanting this brand of tweezers so it’ll be a nice little surprise in her Christmas stocking.
I love shopping there.
I found LeCruset cookware at a bargain price there about 2 yrs ago and I found KitchenAid kitchen tools that were nicely priced too!
I found some Calvin Klein pillow cases reg. price 29.99 for 8 bucks I had to buy extra just in case lol
Last year I got Kyra some really good chef’s knives for 80% off- seriously!!! at TJ Maxx. I was thrilled since that was the top of her Christmas list- and they are guaranteed for life no less.
Oops, I forgot to say I am Sherry- discriminating_diva@yahoo.com
I buy high quality, often imported soaps in luscious scents every couple of months from T J Maxx. The bars are HUGE and usually only cost $4 when the original price was $12 or more.
I found a pair of Anne Klein slides for only 15.00!
I really wish we lived closer to those stores, or ant store for that matter. I have not had the opportunity to shop there, however, my duahter has and found a complete outfit for her daughter for $8.

Unfortunately, I always find good deals at TJMaxx. I picked up some Lee jeans, normally around $40 for $8.00. I also love getting Caldrea home goods for about a third or quarter of the price I would pay at a boutique or novelty shop. I bought a $25 candle for $4.99. Nice gifts.
I haven’t shopped there but I’d love to.
I got a nine west coat for $30, I love that place.
I have not shopped there this holiday season, but love TJs for fun gifts like purses — always a deal and household items. I got my Ralph Lauren chambray (spelling??) bedset there at over half the price it was at Macy’s — can’t beat that!
They always have good prices on designer purses but if you go to the back of the purses area they have a clearance section. I have found really good deals on nice purses in that area.
i usually have some luck in the toy section
I got a holiday table cloth marked down really cheap in January.
Thanks!

I once bought $40 sunglasses at TJ Maxx for less than $5!

Once I found an awesome deal on my Christmas outfit, about two years ago… I went to get a nice outfit to wear on Christmas eve and I found the perfect cute dress, made me feel great! It was already on sale at around 39.99 then when I get up to the register it turned out to be 14.99, I guess someone forgot to update the tag, it. was. the. awesome!

I haven’t shopped their recently because of the busy holidays. Please enter me!
I actually got my son a pair of sneaks for $4 once (on clearance)!
I absolutely love shopping at both of these stores too!! The children’s clothes are always awesome, and the deals on the children’s books are great too. My best find there was probably a sweet little Sac purse that I picked up there on clearance for $4!!!

This past spring, I was shopping at TJ Maxx for gifts for a baby shower. There was a set of Carter’s bibs, with the Carter’s price tag of $20. TJ Maxx was selling the set for $5. What a great savings!
I love buying cute outfits for my daughter and myself at both stores. I also love the home decor and shoe section…well, actually, I guess I just like the whole store! :)
You can contact me through my blog.

The best I found at Marshall’s was a huge black metal haunted house that holds six tea lights, love it! Thank you!
I found the cutest pair of pink cowgirl boots for my daughter there last fall.ashlyn@chuparkoff.com
I’ve never been to either store, but I would love to get a gift for my mom-in-law. My dad-in-law recently passed away and maybe a surprise gift for mom would cheer her up a bit. The holidays are going to be kind of tough for her, and I want to pamper her as much as possible to help her get through this season. Thank you for the contest!

I shopped at Marshalls for a bday gift (it was on the list), but I am ashamed to say that I haven't shopped for myself there in a very long time. This would be a good excuse to go & check it out! (Congrats on your article in the local newpaper!)
The best bargains I found were a summer Jones New York Suit off season for $30.00 and I found some exercise weights for $2

Okay- I already left 1 comment so I hope it’s okay to leave another. So I just did my weekly stop at TJ Maxx. I got some really good deals today. I got my son a Bengals coat for $7.00, my husband and ED Hardy long sleve T-shirt for $11.00 (these retail for almost 100.00) and I got my daughter 4 shirts off the clerance rack for $1.00 a piece. My total after tax was $22.47.

I can usually find pretty good deals on shoes at Marshalls :)
I love buying designer handbags at both TJ Maxx and Marshall’s. I have purchased several Coach handbags for a fraction of the cost they would have been at a Coach store.

I always find great deals in clothes. But I always stop by the housewares just in case there is something I need there.

Signing up!
My mother shops at TJ Maxx all the time, so when I was getting my office together, she called and told me they had shoji screens for about $50! That was a great deal. I never have enough time to shop for clothes, but I’m sure there are deals everywhere there. Thanks for the chance. freetibet1974 at yahoo dot com

I have never shopped at either store, but I would be interested in checking them both out. Thanks for the giveaway!
TJ Maxx is my favorite place to find bargains — my favorite so far would have to be the down comforter I found in the clearance aisle for $35. I snatched it up and have been using it for the last three years. Thanks for the giveaway!
gkaufmanss(at)yahoo(dot)com
I love the toys – you can get some really good prices. I also have found some nice home workout items there.

Just recently we went to TJ Maxx and I was surprised to see such a great assortment of Melissa and Doug toys there! I got my daughter a neat puzzle cube toy for $8!
My last ‘best’ deal was an almost complete seasonal wardrobe for my baby girl for under $30 or New Balance tennies for $20 or Cal-King sateen sheets for less than $20 – these stores are great!
I haven’t been to either store in a while. However, back in 2007 I found a great deal on shoes at both T.J.Maxx and Marshall’s. The shoes were black athletic type shoes and the brand was Polo Ralph Lauren. They were selling for only $10.00 on clearance which was such a steal considering similar shoes were selling at Target and Walmart for more. They were really decent shoes too and I got great use out of them. That’s why I continue to love T.J. Maxx and Marshall’s so much. You can really find some great deals at each store. This is a great giveaway and I really hope I win. Thanks.
girlof80s@aol.com
My best bargain was found at Marshalls. It was a large (around 15″ tall) cobalt blue vase made in Italy, and I got it for $12! The recipient adores it, uses it all the time, and hasn’t a clue that it was such a “steal!”
I honestly couldn’t tell you what the best deal I have ever gotten at either store. But what I can tell you is I bought all my oldest son’s clothes for school at t.j.maxx and the cart was full of named brand clothes and I spent just a little over $200 for it all.
I picked up a gorgeous silk nightgown marked down to under twenty dollars.
an awesome spring jacket..nike…that my son actually loves…$10 at TJ’s
THANKS
$3 shirt at tjmaxx intime@myself.com

My dh loves to get his t-shirts there. He can get them for around $8 each so that’s a great deal. Thanks for the great giveaway!
I got a great pair of workout pants at TJ Max. They were $12 and i waar them all the time at the gym. I also got a baby shower gift basket there that was beautiful.
The Last Thing I purchased at T.J. MAX was a LIZ Claiborn Purse for 20.00. I have gotten many comments on the purse.
I have not shopped at either store but I would love to check them out.Thanks!

I was once gifted a cruise, something I could never have afforded to buy for myself. But the expense of obtaining everything I needed for the trip was overwhelming, and I knew I still needed a formal gown. I seached everywhere and was becoming panicked, when I took my daughter in to Marshals for school clothes. I accidentally found the perfect gown – drastically reduced on a clearance rack, for $24.99…retail was nearly $400!
I found shirts for my grandson at an great price.
I would love to have the gc’s for Marshalls or TJ Maxx. Love to shop their stores because you never know what great deals you’re going to find! It’s very convenient, since they’re both in the same shopping center.
thanks for considering me:)

I’ve only window shopped at T.J. Maxx and Marshall’s, never bought anything there.
My best ever bargain at TJ Maxx was a fabulous down pillow. I went to Macy’s first and couldn’t bring myself to spend $50 on a pillow. Over to TJ Maxx and I found a beautiful down pillow for $6.99. Love it!
Jusrebeth@yahoo.com
I recently got some great name brand shoes for work (heels) for $7.00 each.
Guess shoes!!
I bought a speedo swimsuit at TJ Maxx for my daughter for $3.00!!
If I am fortunate enough to be chosen, I’d prefer the TJ Maxx, as we don’t have a Marshalls where I live.
I found some great jeans for my son.
I bought a jacket for $69.99 and it retails for over $250. I couldn’t beat it and it looks fantastic!
I found a nice jacket for my very fussy husband, he is so hard to buy for.
Thank you
Happy Holidays.

I shopped at both of these stores, but it has been awhile.

I love to go to TJ Maxx for kids toys or puzzles. They always have cool toys for such great prices.
Finding $50 slacks for $12 is pretty common at TJ Maxx, but I think the kids love to shop their toy section for bargains even more.
Are you kidding me? When haven’t I found great deals at these stores. I buy everything there. Kids clothes for $3.99 or less sometimes, womens pajamas for $10 or less, I LOVE these stores!

I just went in the other day and can’t believe they already have most of their items on markdown prices.
That makes shopping easier…

My husband and I got married in May 2007. We found a comfortor that we liked at Bed bath and Beyond. IT was a nautirca brand and the comfortor with the accessories was close to $500!! We received some of the stuff from our wedding. However, one day while shopping at Tj Maxx I came across a Hotel Collections comfortor set that came with everything for $100! It was identical to the nautica stuff that we would have paid over $500 for. I was so excited and we were able to use the money we saved on other things for our home! :)

I just love to shop at TJMaxx and Marshalls! They are my favorite go to place when I want to get some new brand name clothes for either my 3 children or my husband and I. I have found so many amazing bargains and deals over the years. One bargain that stand out to me are some Seven for all Mankind jeans that I was able to purchase for $24.99 at Marshalls! They usually sell for well over $75-125.00 anywhere else! These jeans fit me like a glove and I have been wearing them for a couple of years now. They are very hot jeans, great style, great detail work, and I love them. I have also purchased a couple of Columbia Sportswear jackets for my husband at TJMaxx. If I remember correctly I paid $49.99 for each jacket and again these retail normally for well over $100!! I know there are many, many more bargains I could list. I thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity to enter. Money is tight and these GC’s sure come in handy with 3 young children. Happy Holidays too!

haven’t yet got to shop there!
I used to think that department stores had great prices on ladies undergarments but I discovered recently that TJ Maxx’s prices can’t be beat. I got undies for $1.99 a pair, sweeeeet.
doot65{at}comcast[dot]net
I don’t remember how much they cost, but I had a great deal at TJ Maxx on men’s underwear. I bought most of what they had on the shelf and didn’t need to worry about getting more for quite some time. It was so cheap, it felt like stealing.
It’s been a long time since I shopped at TJ Maxx or Marshalls, but I remember getting great deals there when I was in college. I loved getting super cute shoes and purses for less than $20.
I bought a pair of Clarks at
Marshall’s for 19.99 they were
50.00 shoes.I always find bargains
at Marshalls.My daughter got a
Guess handbag there really cheap too.I love this store,a good
selection of designer clothing.
