I come to TK Maxx whenever I’m in the area due to the wide selection of clothes and shoes. I had the unfortunate experience of being literally YELLED at by three different employees to leave the store ten minutes before they were scheduled to close. I was waiting for my boyfriend at this time, who did not receive this type of treatment I might add. I left the store after the third employee yelled in my face. I was considering buying a £40 jacket, but decided to take my money elsewhere where my business is appreciated. I have worked several retail jobs and was appalled by the customer service I received, but despite this I will still give TK Maxx two stars for having cute clothes and shoes. Keep in mind that they don’t always have the best prices, though – I went home and found the same jacket on the brand’s website for half the price :) karma much?

Ah, Sharon G reminded me of how I feel about TK Maxx. Getting past the fact that it’s called TJ Maxx in the states(why the difference??), coming here is weirdly fun. Everything is so cheap! It’s not just cheap, though, there is actually some nice and well made stuff. I can only assume that it’s the kind of stuff that has some kind of invisible fault that makes it unsellable in the likes of John Lewis and other type stores, because that’s the only way for me to explain the price. It’s so cheap and well stocked, that The Man is actually the one who suggests coming here. We have purchased Le Cruset, bathroom accessories, cute glass storage jars, and have been tempted by loads of their pots/pans/etcetc. The clothing takes more work — they’ve got pretty reasonable walking gear, but in terms of everyday clothes I’ve not even tried to look because I just don’t have the energy it would take to search through dozens of racks of rank just to find one nice thing. I think I’ll probably suggest going this weekend…
