How to FIND the deals in Marshalls, ROSS, and TJ MAXX

OK....

My friends tell me they HATE these stores...I am here to tell you why it is worth the several minutes to stop into these stores often and frequently...it is PAINLESS and you will find deals that will make any shopping addict feeling like they just won the Lotto!

#1 SKIP the reg. racks (unless you have an hour +) run in and look for those BIG RED CLEARANCE SIGNS. Stop, find you needed size (kids, hubby, you??) and look for the labels... once you start to know the brands you can quickly sift through the Liz Claiborne, Ralph Lauren, and Limited stuff and find your fashion FINDS...

Start small....look for premium denim.... look for brands like Joe's, Seven for All Man Kind (DO NOT BE so silly as to fall for those "SEVEN" jeans from some random mall store), Paper Denim and cloth, Juicy, Joie (I think I spelled that right?), etc... I think that the Seven for All Mankind jeans are still over priced for clearance,,,but keep looking...I just found the Juicy Linen Pants (I already scored) in there for $30... some of the brands are so high end that you may not even know them.... It seems that TJ MAXX and MARSHALLS get a TON of their jeans from Neiman Marcus. If you want to do your homework.... go on Neiman Marcus online site and print out the brand sheet.... tuck it in your purse....

OH...and DO NOT try this at ROSS in WOMENS' ...there is a TON of (sorry but ...) Crap int he womens' dept. lately... BUT, ROSS has a ton of surfer girls clothing...Billabong, Roxy, etc... Great place for tanks, sundresses, ts, and sweats! If your man wears those surfer boy brands check the mens' scene.... great finds there...AMZING deals!
