TJ Maxx

I hate paying retail for anything, and that’s why I love T.J. Maxx. This store is HUGE. And you pay at least half-​off retail — usually much less.
It’s the place to go for:
* Ohio State clothing (not the cheap stuff, either — very cool selection usually)
* T-​shirts (Lucky Brand, Nike, etc. — you can find some awesome T’s here)
* Casual clothing (not like Wal-​mart clothes, more like Macy’s)
* Winter coats
* Hats (of all sorts)
* Sporting good (basketballs, golf balls, etc)
* Luggage (HUGE selection)
* Women’s shoes/​boots (my wife loves this section)
* Watches and (cheapish) jewellery.
* Nicknacks for bookselves
* Chairs, tables, writing desks
* Cheap but cool wall art (framed prints, paintings, posters, stretched canvas)
* Bedding (sheets, quits, blankets)
* Pet toys and supplies (no food but some snacks).
And lots more! I know such places have a cheese-​factor reputation but all I say is stop in and check it out. You’ll be a fan like me.
