TJ Maxx

On sunday the 18^th I bought some shoes from here because my work flats had gotten old and crummy. Found some on the rack and purchased a few other things like tupperware pack etc. When I tried them on they were too tight near the toe area so I got the receipt and bagged up the shoes and attempted to return them 5 days later.
Now I will say that I should have found the upc sticker on the bottom of the shoe but honestly after recently moving a few weeks ago and dealing with that craziness it had to have been thrown out.
When I get to the store the clerk looks at my shoes funny and asks if I had the sticker. I reply no and ask if she can look it up a different way. She consults with the stock lady and then a manager all the whole while commenting that they didn’t know where these shoes came from. The clerk turns back to me, slides the shoes over, apologizes and says these aren’t our shoes.
I honestly didn’t know what to say for a second because of her statement. After trying to ask her if there was another possible way of looking up the shoes she says no and a manager intervenes and eventually says no as well and backs up the statement that there is a missing mark on the bottom of the shoe to prove it’s theirs. My fiancé found another pair of shoes sans said mark and they said they know their shoes and it’s still not theirs. My fiancé asks even if they can just look at the footage to see the transaction to confirm we were there buying those actual cursed shoes but they said we needed to make an appointment with LP to do that and made it seem like it was be difficult to get done.
Manager finally says they’ll refund my fiancé’s money but makes side remarks saying «oh now you paid for the shoes. You’re story keeps changing.» Does it matter who «paid» for it? Our JOINT account paid for it! I’ve never been pegged for a thief or been made out to feel like a liar but these employees certainly did that. Now I work in retail and it is in fact a difficult job to deal difficult customers day in and day out. And I hate to argue with someone who is just trying to do their job but I have never, ever insinuated any customer of mine to be a thief or a liar. I was so upset I didn’t want to say another word to these women and let my fiancé handle the rest of the transaction.
Even as I got home, I looked through the trash to find that stupid upc sticker so I could bring it back to the store as proof but didn’t get anywhere.
You better believe I will never, ever come back there after being disrepected and treated like a liar.

I’ve not met one person who doesn’t like TJ Maxx. This store is great and always stocked when I go in. Tons of bags, purses, shoes, housewares, clothes, etc. Although I don’t shop here for the clothes, I love going to the housewares section. Tons of house decorations and kitchen gadgets. Cute gift ideas as well… What is there not to love? Come in and decide for yourself!

After the past few weeks of looking for extra long I have a new respect for TJ Maxx. I have not found a Maxi dress that I liked, but the store really looked refreshed and modern. This location is not as nice, to me, as the Camp Creek Marketplace but it had a lot of different items for every one’s style. I even saw some evening gowns. I was shocked!
I found two pair of shoes that I could actually wear, but I could not wear them out of the house because they were 5 inch heels. This is a problem because I’m already almost 6 feet so 5 inch heels do not help me out in the dating category. But they would make for some nice bedroom shoes ladies! :) I may go back and get both pair in the morning!

I really like this TJ Maxx because of its location and selection.
The East Commons includes a Target, Home Goods (!!! which just opened), Payless, and a couple other stores (and restaurants). Across the street there’s a Kohl’s, Ross, Rack Room Shoes, etc. It’s a perfect spot to go discount shopping for a day.
This TJs consistenly has a great selection, I really love that they always have a lot of Max Mara! Plus tons of other top names in tons of sizes (you know, your usual TJ finds). They have a huge women’s clothing section — men’s is smaller but carries all great designer labels, too. It’s usually not very busy, which makes for a pleasant shopping experience without too many people taking up the aisles for you. They have recently started carrying a lot more women’s shoes (including size 11, which I love since I have canoes). Housewares is a decent selection (including a suprising number of pet items), but the best part is – now if you can’t find it here you can just walk next door to Home Goods. So awesome!
