T J Maxx

It’s your typical TJ maxx. I went today for the first time to this location and found what I was looking for and then some. It was clean. Organization varied depending on department. Nice selection of items. Good prices.

Perfect Second location of T.J. Maxx in Fresno for Mamanistas and Fashonistas; and I must say this place is pretty decent– quite contrary to my initial belief that this was the ghetto T.J. Maxx in Fresno, it maybe located in the older and ghetto part of Fresno, therefore maybe location wise it doesn’t seem as impressive and hence my initial assessment of it being ghetto, but as a store, I think both places are comparably the same in terms of quality, organization and fashion offerings.
This T.J. Max location is clean, has plenty of parking and offers a wide range of off price branded items just like its other location in Clovis. This location might appeal more for those in the west Fresno area. I for one think, it better to come here than factory outlet stores, because I don’t have to travel far and plus the bargains are great here most of the time.
T.J. Maxx is an off-​price retail chain under the the TJX company so you might notice the similarity between Tj Maxx and its sister stores Marshall and Home Goods, T.J. Maxx differentiates itself from Marshalls by having a more upscale appearance and typically features an expanded assortment of both fine jewelry and accessories. But what is awesome about TJ Maxx is, you can find clothing, but also home furniture and decors here too, just like at home goods– maybe not as much, but pretty decent offerings.
This T. J Maxx has a variety of brand it carries, and its not always the same, you might find kate spade, Marc Jacobs at the handbag area, and much more. But also find really high quality sports goods, kitchen goods, perfume, makeup, hair care, facial products, designer clothing, designer home interior and decorations, and also kids designer goods for 50%-70% off normal price. Not everything is a good deal, you will need to hunt for them, and that’s the fun thing about T. J Maxx.
But here are my tips when shopping at TJ Maxx here or anywhere.
When it comes to finding the best deal at TJ Maxx there are some important nuisances to consider:
Shop on Wednesdays — Historically, TJ Maxx marks down merchandise on Wednesdays. While this can vary some from store to store, your best bet for finding new mark downs is on Wednesday mornings right when the store opens. Also, most TJ Maxx locations get new arrivals 3 – 5 days a week so the selection is constantly changing.
The Scoop on «Irregular» Items — Over 95% of the items at TJ Maxx are first quality while the other 5% are «Irregular». This doesn’t mean they have a hole in them or a Monica Lewinsky stain, but rather an error in the manufacturing process. Things like the wrong color dye or wrong material. In other words, they are irregularities that the average customer is not even going to notice.
TJ Maxx Vs. Macy’s — Don’t be shocked to see the same merchandise in TJ Maxx as your local Macy’s or Nordstrom on the same exact day. The price will be much less at TJ Maxx of course. The reason? Let’s say that a clothing manufacturer has enough denim to make 65,000 pairs of jeans but Macy’s only buys 50,000, then off-​price retailers like TJ Maxx will come in and buy the extra 15,000 pairs for a steep discount and pass the savings along to you.
Sales at TJ Maxx?- The only time when you will find any sales at TJ Maxx is at the end of the current season when they try and clear out old merchandise. This makes it a great time to stock up for the following year. Snatch clearance deals quickly as they won’t last forever as TJ Maxx will eventually donate unsold clearance items to local charities.
Holiday Shopping Strategy — Unlike many big department stores, TJ Maxx receives new items for Christmas shopping right up until Christmas eve. Why? Their buyers are buying merchandise all year long and not on a seasonal basis. Which means they are buying for Christmas right into early December making them a great place to shop if you procrastinate this year on your Christmas gift list.

This tj maxx is awesome. All though this store isn’t the best looking tj maxx, i find more great finds at this one than others. They have a great mens and home department which is why I come here. Warning though– in the men’s bathroom the door doesn’t close or lock and it’s a single stall, so someone can just barge in while you’re going.

Why does this store always smell like crap? I’ve been there about 4 times now and every time that door opens I get smacked in the face with a wall of funk. The last couple times I endured the funk for nothing because I didn’t find anything I wanted. All of that funk with no reward is depressing. I think I’m going to have to quit TJMaxx

It smelt like a$$ in there. I don’t know what else to say because it was a bad experience.
