I have many favorite purchases…but recently my husband and I have found a set of Le Crueset lime green stoneware casserole dishes. They’re like accessories for your kitchen!

I would say the fave purchase from TJ Maxx is the red leather-look PVC pants. Thanks for the giveaway!

All of my comfy Born and Keen shoes.

My favorite TJ Maxx purchase is one that is pretty practical but I use it ALL THE TIME: My cardigan. It’s dark brown and so it goes with everything and I inevitably always have it with me, because you never know when it’s going to be chilly outside or a restaurant is going to have the AC turned up. I’ve definitely gotten my $10 worth out of it!

heather October 15, 2009 at 11:09 am

My favorite purchase there was my last purchase, a gray flyaway cardigan.  Love it!

Kathleen October 15, 2009 at 1:39 am

My current favorite T.J. Maxx purchase is a pair of navy Franco Sarto pumps with white trim.  They were the last of their kind and happened to be in my size—it was fate!

Bianca October 15, 2009 at 2:21 am

My favorite purchases from TJmAxx are always handbags. It a great way to get funky bags and colors without blowing a ton of cash. :-)

Jessica October 15, 2009 at 2:35 am

My favorite purchase from TJ Maxx has to be my beautiful white/bone pumps that I wear with everything!

Kate October 15, 2009 at 3:06 am

My favorite purchase from TJ Maxx will always be bags and shoes. I saw a pair of Anne Klein sandals in a store in California that I loved but didn’t buy them because of baggage allowance for my trip. Lo and behold! I saw them at a TJ Maxx in Florida AND bought them at clearance price. Thank you TJ Maxx!

That’s tough—I have gotten so many great things at TJ Maxx! I get a ton of compliments on my DKNY sweater coat, so that is one of my faves.

Aggie October 15, 2009 at 3:17 am

I have so MANY TJMAXX stories: One fav is the Billy Bag I bought for $30 in clearance. That was a such a head rush. I ran to the checkout counter (just in case it was a mistake), paid – put the bag in the car. Then casually went back into the store.

i have a few favs that i wear all the time, but one of the most functional was a 686 snowboarding jacket. it came in xs & was from the previous season, but it fit my built perfectly. it was an amazing deal too.. only $25, which was absolutely, positively, completely worth it!!

natalie balentine October 15, 2009 at 3:21 am

Oh my!  I think my sisters and i are the original Maxxinistas.  I have found my very best treasures for the home and my wardrobe at TJ maxx!  Last week i found a pair of Frye high heeled sandals in indigo blue that retailed for over $100, for $29!!  Yes!! They are wonderful.  I found my fist Da Nang silk cargo pants at TJ Maxx, and my favorite Vertigo silk sheath dress.  I have worn that to several wedding and it is always PERFECT!!!

As an elementary art teacher I have a limited clothing budget, but I want to look chic, fun, stylish and to be comfortable…no “Molly Mcbutter” school teacher clothes for me! TJ Maxx and Marshals always deliver for me!
I have also bought my stylish 72 year old mother cashmere twin sets and classic tailored wool skirts…she is from Paris and carries off TJ Maxx chic with such class. If a new TJ Maxx opens near me, it is an event for my sisters and I.

A pair of Betsey Johnson platform stillettos! Original price $200, I paid $69.99! Woot! Woot!:-)

Tiffany October 15, 2009 at 3:41 am

My favorite purchase at TJ Maxx happened several years ago; it is a burgundy mid thigh length leather jacket. I paid $25 dollars for it, it was a great bargain and I still wear it today.

Donna October 15, 2009 at 3:51 am

My favorite TJ Maxx purchase is my Reaction Kenneth Cole carry-on size rolling bag.  It’s gotten me through many a trip and at a great price too!

Mary October 15, 2009 at 3:59 am

Its always about my 4 year old daughter, whether its clothing or a simple toy – those are the best purchases from TJMaxx – anything I bring home from there always puts a huge smile on her face. Priceless!!

Carla October 15, 2009 at 4:23 am

My favorite purchases from TJ Maxx are bras. I have purchased (36D) bras that were originally $60 for $15!

Marisa October 15, 2009 at 4:31 am

My favorite TJ Maxx Purchase:  I scored an awesome Coach wristlet in the classic beige and brown colors for $24.99. I’m a minimalist when it comes to handbags and that and my Michael Korrs black leather studded wristlet are my favorite “purse” accessories!

Diana Biela October 15, 2009 at 4:36 am

My favorite purchase was a grey cashmere turtleneck…classic!

Ronda October 15, 2009 at 4:38 am

My favorite TJ Maxx purchase is my old faithful black suit.  I needed a black suit for an interview after the birth of daughter. The funds were limited and I could not wear anything else.  I went to TJ Maxx and found a Jones of New York Suit on clearance for $35 because the skirt was a different size than the jacket.  The suit is a classic and I still wear it for interviews!!! as well as any occassion I need it.  My daughter is 5 years old now!!

shirleyujest October 15, 2009 at 4:51 am

My favorite,and there have been many,is my grey cashmere turtleneck….classic!

Jackie October 15, 2009 at 5:08 am

My first TJ Maxx purchase was my baking measuring cups. The set came in two rings.  When you needed a certain size you just go through the ring and pull it out. The price was right in our alley which was awesome.  Some of the other places were just too expensive for measuring cups.
I know if I need a good deal I would head to TJ Maxx first. I’m so glad they built one near our house.

My absolute favorit TJ Maxx Purchase was My Black tulip pencil skirt! It goes with just about anything! Its wool so even if its cold It still keeps me a little warm! LOVE IT! It was 29.99 originally 69.99!

nds October 15, 2009 at 5:27 am

my favorite purchase was a pair of ed hardy sweat pants. i had seen them at macys a while back and wanted them but they just didn’t seem worth it…well lo and behold they showed up at tj maxx a few months later…i was excited!

InkLuv October 15, 2009 at 5:31 am

My favorite purchase is a Lily Pulitzer cashmere/silk beautiful pale yellow scarf for $10.

rleer41 October 15, 2009 at 5:51 am

My favorite purchase is a winter coat that is a perfect fit and length and is high quality without the high price tag of department stores.

Sophia October 15, 2009 at 6:09 am

I think my favorite purchase has been my roxy jacket and nike shoes. I can wear it everyday, with it being affordable!

Larissa October 15, 2009 at 7:17 am

The best purchase I made was little black dress by Max Studio for under $30! Besides the unbelievable price, it’s a piece that never goes out of style. I can mix and match it with different shoes, purses and baubles (jewelry) that I already own. Trust me, I own an array of LBDs, but this is definitely my go-to LBD!

dsmom89 October 15, 2009 at 7:28 am

My favorite purchase was a gold clutch from Chinese Laundry for $12!

adrian44 October 15, 2009 at 7:59 am

My favorite purchase is my wool coat.  I got it last season and wore it all winter.  I’m so excited to be able to wear it again this year.

Brittany October 15, 2009 at 10:01 am

My favorite Maxx purchase was a pair of Ecco mary jane clogs for about 1/3 the department store price.  They were wonderful-quality, really comfy, and cute, too.
