TJ Maxx

I don’t like it, I love it love it love it, uh oh…
Not the most organized, but great finds. Their home department isn’t as big as it used to be, but you can still find what you need. A Ralph Lauren pillow for 15 $? They got it. A James Perse Tshirt half price? Check. I’m an Actor and go on auditions, and very often need a specific outfit last minute. TJ Maxx is the answer.

I’m a huge fan of T.J. Maxx. I stop into their locations wherever I am. This location on 5^th and Alton is just over the MacArthur Causeway, so you’re sure to see it on your way into South Beach. I discovered this location years ago while on a vacation to SoBe.
I always seem to find something that I don’t need, but purchase anyway. This time I actually found something that I need. After cruising the Caribbean for a week without a souvenir, I decided I needed one from T.J. Maxx. I found the most lovely swim cover-​up. Now, I cannot wait for summer to come in New Jersey so I can debut my newest acquisition.
This store is located on the 5^th floor, so you will need to take an elevator to enter. They also offer free parking, but since we didn’t rent a car this trip, the hubby and I walked about a mile each way. At least we burned off some of the calories from dinner.

One of my favorite TJ Maxx stores. Conveniently located right on South Beach! Their prices are a little higher than other TJ Maxx stores, but it is South Beach… where the rents are higher. Excellent selection of beautiful jewelry. The home section is nice too, I bought myself a great piece of quality luggage there and the price was perfect. I use it whenever I travel. If you’re looking for a cute dress, jewelry, shoes, or a unique shower curtain… pop in here. There aren’t many other stores like it, on the beach… everything else is an overpriced boutique. Oh, there is always Ross right next door, but I prefer TJ Maxx, usually. Easy to park in their garage.

It’s not as big as most other TJ Maxx stores, and the Home Dept can use a little attention… This is the only reason I’m only giving it 4 stars.
BUT it is my favorite go to shop for designer brands at LOW prices! It’s my little secret. You have to search, but when you find it it’s so worth it. Recommend to all fashionistas on a budget! :)

I had such a horrible experience at this location and I blame it on the store manager, John. We all know the «miami service» but «Johns service,» made my blood pressure rise and left me speechless and shaking. What planet is this guy from? Yeah he’s a Diva who thinks he’s all that but hey buddy wake up and smell the roses your a Store Manager!!!
Last week I purchased a wallet and a few bikinis. Came home and noticed the wallet is missing and the security tags were still on my bikinis. So i make a phone call spoke to the helpful and very nice manager (not John) and they located the wallet and told me to ask for a manager when I arrive. 4 days later I enter TJ Max ask for the manager and 10 long minutes later on a slow raining weekday, unprofessional John arrives. In the meantime Laura a cashier was looking for my wallet. John did not say hi, did not introduce himself or even apologize about the wait. I tell him what happened and he rolls his eyes and tells me to come back??? Without even looking for my wallet!!! Come back? Why cause your too lazy to look for it??? No wonder why my security tags are still on my bikini and my wallet wasn’t bagged, cause your staff sees how lazy you are! They learn from the best! Then I tell him can’t you call the manager I spoke to and ask him where it is? He raised his voice and said, «you want me to call someone, are you serious.» By this point I was speechless. But I told him I was walking in the rain to get here and you can’t call someone? Remember its cause of your store I had to comeback. Then he tells me I will just refund you your money. What an incompetent manager! Poor Laura was still looking, I told him «look how easy you give up, Laura is still looking.» John grabs the box and throws it on the counter and start throwing stuff around. Smart Laura found the wallet right on the counter next to John. There was a huge note on it. How does the store manager walk past this for four days and not care to read it? Laura took the situation into her own hands and apologized repeatedly. John kept his back to me and never apologized, nothing. Laura needs a promotion, the too good for life John needs to stay at home because no body anywhere should have to deal with his attitude.
FYI I went to Ross after this dilemma and was treated very kindly and I felt appreciated.

This is gonna sound sick, but I travel the country scouring TJMaxx stores everywhere I go. This is above & beyond the best store for high end fashion & jewelry items at discounts. I mean honestly they have inventory that Neimans & Saks carry! While their home goods section could be better I appreciate the space dedicated to men! :-)

I’ve been here several times, and while they don’t always have what I want/​need (duh it’s a discount store that sells leftovers), and sometimes it’s a PRICEY discount store, I will say that I am very thankful for some of the fabulous scores I have found.
The changing room is usually clean, there is free parking, my last visit had excellent jewelry, the time before great sunglasses, and the time before that the spa was loaded with discounted items.
Sometimes the line to check-​out can be quite long — but with a few great finds it is usually worth the wait!!!

If u find something u love, buy it. Or place it on hold. Will disappear in a matter of hours.
Great inventory. One of the best if not the best TJMaxx i have been to as far as organization goes, inventory, and displays… saw a gorgeous fendi bag for about 1200 $ didn’t know they had high ticket items like that. I love stocking up on yummy candles here, smell great, name brands, and you dont have to over pay like at some other places… Also enjoy the home section, always replace and add new bamboo cutting boards from here, get them here for a steal, sometimes i find a nice frame, and they always have cool, non specific wrapping paper, and name brand hair products.
they also have one isle for pet stuff! (beds, treats, bowls, clothes etc.)

Unlike other TJ Maxx stores where the staff does not give a damn about helping the customer, this TJ Maxx staff is young, hip, quick and friendly. Ok, maybe not the lady behind the jewelry counter who feels a little trapped and confined to one location.
You can park in the mall garage off 5^th and Alton and enjoy free parking for 2 hours for free.

We saw a massive TJ Maxx sign on Miami Beach and though we would walk in because it was starting to rain.
Ok, so you have to go the 2^nd floor, walk to the middle of the garage and take an elevator up to the store. Weird.
When I went in I was shocked. I love TJ Maxx, but this place was a mess and all of the items were messy… it was terrible. A very small TJ Maxx with nothing to offer and a waste of time. Standing in the rain was better.

I’ve declared this store in a state of emergency. I think it was recently ravaged by a hurricane.
Clothes are hung haphazardly on racks that are smushed so close together, you start to feel claustrophobic. The home section is practically devastated — there is more stuff on the floor than on the shelves and a lot of it is broken. Lastly, it seems most of the employees evacuated and have yet to return.
Sad. This place was almost awesome when it first opened.

I don’t normally shop in TJ Maxx but when this opened in South Beach I had to check it out. I love this place they have all designer items also seven jeans, Joe’s, Vince, bcbg, and much more for less then half off. Designer jeans you would get in Bloomingdale’s for $ 180 are all between 69.99– 99.99. It is worth it just if you need a pair of jeans. Today I went in looking for clothes ended up coming out with some amazing smelling candles for $ 4.99 and towels. This place is great !!! Even better you park in the parking garage and get a free 2 hours of parking !! You can’t beat free parking !

Ok — I know it is the holidays and many of the retail workers are exhausted for the season… but really — this store earned the award for «not caring one bit.» This store was a mess, the isles tight and things all over the floor, the workers were rude and they didn’t even bother trying to give sales for the season.
Ok — about the mess — granted, customers play a part with this part. What goes through the mind of a person who tries on something and then throws it on the floor? However, since it is common that customers are rude about putting things back where they belong — there really needs to be workers assigned to keep the isles neat.
When I finally couldn’t take maneuvering through the «debris» I stopped my holiday shopping with two items — to then be given a final «don’t care if you ever shop here» attitude from the cashier, who snatched the pen out of my hand, threw my items in the bag, threw my bag to the side and said — «next» although I was still standing there putting my wallet away in my purse.
Wooo saaaaaa… Yes, my fellow Unilocalers… I did immediately share my review with this worker… I took a deep breath and politely reminded the cashier I was still standing there — her response…“well, we are busy.” Right… maybe they (TJ MAXX) should not be so busy… since it clearly annoys the workers.
…well…bahhh humbug to them… I’ll give my money to another store in the future.

I really wish I had better luck at this place since it’s so close to home. I like the designer section they have. Although, they never seem to having anything halfway respectable looking in my size. I think I may need to find out when they get shipments in if I ever want to find anything here…

Since it’s opened this location has been hit or miss.
The «Runway» designer section experienced some serious shrinkage shortly after it’s debut but I returned recently and was pleasantly surprised to find some true gems — Jimmy Choos, Vince leather jackets, Frye bags, J. Brand and See by Chloe denim, and a number of truly covetable items.
It’s nice to see this store get beyond the Nine West, Steve Madden, Jessica Simpson basics and back into Haute territory.

The best TJ Maxx ever, my first, is… those of you that have read some of my reviews can guess… in Chicago, on State Street. TJ Maxx down here is closer to Ross than Filene’s Basement. However, it is still better than Ross.
Welcome, TJ Maxx to the beach. Yay. Convenience. Boo. Can’t find a thing usually. No mens dress shirts. No mens shoes. No ties. Sparse cologne and deodorant. Limited mens clothing.
That is to say, sometimes I can find a shirt, a pair of pants or a pillow here but not exactly the most impressive store.

I had never been to a TJ Maxx till the shopping center of Alton and fifth opened. Now I know what I was missing!
I love TJ Maxx. Located on the 5^th floor, the store is quite big with clearly organized aisles. It has a great selection of clothes, shoes, handbags, necklaces, … at great prices! My wallet is always happy to save money!
I bought my favorite pair of shoes and a handbag there. My best friend from France also found all her Christmas presents for her family!
Designers clothes are finally affordable, the shoes sales section always has good deals.
Definitely a store to add to your list for bargain shopping. Plus the parking is free for the first 2 hours ;)

While I’m not a fan of the eyesore 5^th & Alton shopping-​center monstrosity, I must give some serious props to this T.J. Maxx. With a Ross right across the way, I wasn’t expecting too much, but I was pleasantly surprised.
Great selection of shoes and purses! I probably could’ve perused that for hours (and no doubt ended up buying much more than I needed). The housewares/​kitchen section had a lot more stuff than I expected.
The majority of the store is devoted to women’s clothes, so that’s a plus. They didn’t have as many dresses as I’d expected, but I still managed to find plenty that caught my eye.
I’ll definitely return for more designer goods at off-​brand prices.

Yes, what a nice store. This has to be the nicest TJ Maxx ever. What a surprise to see more than half the store solely for woman. Not a great store for men, but they did have a decent section for men’s clothes.
As Jordan mentioned no shoe department for men. Hubby was not to happy. As I strolled around, could not believe how high end certain things were. Yes, ladies some designer label dresses that were $ 99-​$ 250. I kept looking up to make sure I was in the right store. Some of the designer’s were nice but it looks like they might be catering to middle aged woman, with the styles of dresses and young teenagers.
The shoe department was nice and large. The bedding department was very small and not a good selection. Handbags and casual attire had great selections.
Of course the store is brand new and clean and very well organized. The associates seem to be friendly and helpful. Oh my the jewelry department had some beautiful pieces. Again, very high end prices for the most part.
As I was checking out, the lines go fast and cashiers were very nice. TJ Maxx does a great job with their automated speakers telling you where to go to check out. Not like Ross, that seems to have major issues with getting people out the door.
Great to have this store here. There were so many tourist in there shopping. Great addition to the beach for locals and tourist as well.
Free parking fifth level.

T.J. Maxx in South Beach opened yesterday — a boon for downtown shoppers who are tired of lower-​tiered Ross and Marshall’s. Free parking is a good perk that is appreciated here. There are plenty of good brands to be had here, and that is also appreciated. The store is nicely organized but there are a few problems I already noticed:
1) The checkout aisle is tiny — and there are people who rather peruse the items laid out by the aisle, inhibiting movement. Bigger aisles please, or move the items out of the check out area!
2) Carts cannot go to where the cars are — expect to carry items!
3) At least 51 percent of the population in Miami Beach is male. And in South Beach the percentage is probably higher. That being said… no men’s shoes!!! AT ALL!!! Seriously… that’s just out of whack.
4) Going on with number 3 — the women’s department is vastly larger, thanks to the large shoe department being solely for women. It makes ⁴⁄₅ of the store women-​friendly, and ¹⁄₅ men-​friendly.
5) No scooter parking? This is South Beach… and it irritates drivers to see a tiny scooter taking up a huge parking spot in the garage.
6) What’s with some of the doors being locked? The most convenient exit point from the cashier row is locked so I had to go through a door that is more commonly used as an entrance. Seriously, I don’t like bumping into people, but I just might have to.
Thankfully it’s early in its opening — and hopefully they can fix some of those kinks to make the shopping experience a pleasurable one.
