T J Maxx

Great children’s section! I’ve hardly looked at the other items, but this store has performed well when I was looking for baby gifts. The gift décor and wrap stock has eco friendly options and has fun seasonal items as well.

Great clearance items and nice selection of high end clothing. Sometimes the lines can be long, but it is worth the wait when you find awesome deals. I have been shopping here for years and this is my go to store when I need to find something really cute.

Busy day at The Maxx… I had to make a quick stop here for a t-​shirt. Of course it’s Easter Weekend so its super busy… durning my check out I noticed only 3 Cashiers up front. They called for backup 4 times… Unfortunately the shirt I purchased is a little big… I was hoping to find a smaller size, but oh well people in hell want Ice water. No big deal. Either way I found what i needed.

This is the most redheaded step-​child of all TJ Maxxes and Mashalls out there in North America. I perfectly understand the concept of «past season» designer clothes but do they have to have torn sleeves, holes and stains? It is not a second hand store after all. Seasonal decorations are also broken many of times — here’s your three legged reindeer, kid. In general, besides occasional finds at jewelry counter (still scarce) and decent purse collection, there is really nothing to look at. Shoe department is the most depressing thing I have seen in years; sales are sluggish, I keep seeing same shoes over and over again. Staff members are great though, given what they have to work with, but it is the most uninspiring shopping experience ever. Even Target across the street has more upbeat and going atmosphere. The only reason I would still come here and not Target for «emergency» purchases — I do not buy my pants at the same place I buy my lettuce. Only my darn principles of selective shopping and a decade of successful dressing at TJ Maxxes of America, keep me coming back here.

I love TJ Maxx and often walk out of the store with SOMETHING. The TJM on Falls is a bit lackluster and is in desperate need of a makeover.
I recently went in for a new carry-​on bag and heard that TJM carries Delsey luggage, so I opted to give it a shot. First, the parking was a nightmare. Once I actually did get into the store, I went right for the luggage. They had quite a few carry-​on size bags, but not a lot of Delsey. The part that is sort of a turn-​off is that most of the bags were covered with dust. You’d think the staff would sort of go around with a feather duster in the evenings, once in a while. The entire store is this way, though.
This TJM is always cluttered. You really have to dig around to find something worthwhile. As a fan of TJM, this one is a disappointment.

This review is going to cover several TJ Maxx stores in the Triangle.
1.) TJ Maxx — Falls of Neuse in Raleigh: Not the best TJ Maxx store in the area, which I find baffling, given its proximity to North Raleigh and inside the beltline. The store is small and needs to be renovated. The new Home Goods right by it would be a great example of what the parent company could do to spiff up the store. Having said that, there are great finds to be had here for clothing, shoes, perfumes and toiletries.
2.) TJ Maxx — brand new one near Cary Parkway in Cary: bright, shiny, great selection, nice size. Excellent shoe selection. Also conveniently located near a Target and a Ross Dress for Less (coming soon.) Huge and spacious purse section, also great selection of luggage.
3.) TJ Maxx — ¹⁵⁄₅₀₁ in Durham: older and smaller store, but has the Runway section. This is the high fashion area in TJ Maxx where you can find very high end designers. The prices in this section are higher than the usual TJ Maxx price point range, but for fashionistas who want their high end designers, the comparative deals are very solid. This store tends to have the most interesting finds, and it is probably due to its location between Duke and UNC-​Chapel Hill.
All locations have great bargains and you can’t go wrong. If you are a true frugal fashionista, you shall enjoy all of them. If you really do want your Nordstrom’s/Saks/Belk designer lines, go to the one in Durham with the Runway section.

This TJ Maxx can be easy to miss tucked away in a shopping center on Falls of Neuse Road, but don’t let that stop you from popping in. It’s very much like a Marshalls (owned by the same company), so it’s rather hit or miss depending on what you’re looking. The hits, however, are totally worth it! Example: my dad is very tall and has an odd jean/​pants size. I’ve scored a few pairs of pants for him here when I couldn’t find them anywhere else, and at a great price.
TJ Maxx has men’s, women’s and children’s clothes, as well as home décor, purses, bags, accessories, shoes and housewares at great prices. I’ve even seen some locations with items for your 4-​legged friends!
