secret tj maxx knockoffs are real and this is a topic of a bit of controversy but tj maxx makes their own clothing and licenses designer brands that they attach to the clothing, for example if you wear a kenneth cole reaction article or a nicole miller blouse and you think the price is too good to be true because it's $23 and 80 percent less than anywhere else, be sure to go beyond the brand you see on the price tag and look at the tag that is sewn inside the clothing if the tag on the inside does not have the name of the designer brand but instead says that tjx europe or watford is one of the in-house designer brands linked to tj maxx , but this

doesn

't happen all the time and while I have some subscribers to this channel contacted me before uploading this video with that information, just be sure to check the tags carefully.

Buying secret number two before focusing on the positives. The comparison prices you see on tj maxx price tags are usually completely false. Now I don't

want

to bother TJ Maxx because I love the store and I love the prices, but the list price, such as what you would find at the target or five below, often represents an inflated list price to convince you or make you feel . You are saving substantially more money than what a comparison price actually is, however, it is a little different from the list price because the item was never sold for that price.

Let's take a look at Greenies Dental Treats as an example in the 12. Tj Maxx 12 Ounce Bag of Treats has a compare price of 20 and a retail price of 12.99. Well the price of 12.99 is a very good deal if we were to compare this with Amazon for example, the list price is definitely 17.99 and not the comparison price of 20 plus. Importantly, if you were to do this as a subscribe and save item on Amazon, you would get an extra 35 in additional savings, which would make Amazon substantially less expensive than what tj maxx offers, but of course this is a subscription and savings, so if we were to simply grab this off a store shelf, tj maxx would win over the daily shopping price.

Secret number three that tj maxx doesn't want you to

know

. I'm going to handle the clearance section and then in a moment I'm going to explain a mistake that many shoppers make when they walk into a tj maxx store to shop regarding the clearance section, although you will do much better online than in the store due to the high amount of traffic through the clearance sections. They are often surprisingly small given the floor plan of a typical TJ Maxx, it is often difficult to find the correct sizes; Sometimes you'll see piles of clothes unfolded and at my local store it actually wasn't particularly bad on the day I'm uploading this video, but the online clothing clearance section for tj maxx is revamped, you can adjust your search parameters to search by color, reduce it by size and you'll spend a lot less time online and avoid shipping fees in the process, sign up for your New email list users will often receive a completely free shipping code, so it's not You need to get out of your house's shopping secret number four.

Forget Petsmart or many of those other national pet chains. Tj Maxx is actually one of the best places to shop. many products for your pets including pet beds, now what I'm showing you is just a normal day at my local store, it's not national pet day, there is an amazing selection of dog beds and many other products and accessories For your pets, TJ Maxx is also one of the few major retailers that actually invites your dog in, as long as it's in a shopping cart or on a leash and has an exceptional selection of pet toys, many at prices Comparable to what you would find at Dollar Tree, but at a substantially better quality price, so tj maxx pet owners is definitely your place to go if they aren't already shopping there before showing them an easy way to haggle for a price. lowest on t.j.maxx and also how to read price tags.

Shopping secret number five is linked to a mistake that many shoppers make when they enter the store. Every time I'm in the store, I often see people with their Amazon app open and ironically it would appear just like me on the pet treats that most people compare prices to on Amazon. to know if you are really getting a good deal on t.j.maxx, since tj maxx is really outstanding in terms of clothing, i want to remind everyone right now that tj maxx's direct competitor is actually macy's and saks clearance sections and Nordstrom will replicate many of the items that TJ Maxx offers, so if you're going to check prices or just do your typical Google search, be on the lookout for Macy's Nordstrom Shopping Secret Number Six Nordstrom Rack and Saxophone that TJ Maxx Maybe Not you want.

What you should know is that you can actually haggle or negotiate for a lower price in a very specific section of the store, if you haven't found it yet within your local store, look for the irregular products section or the items that are marked throughout the store with irregular labels. good price tags, these items usually have a slight cosmetic imperfection, but let me show you what I found and we'll talk about how the prices are not only negotiable, but sometimes you can't even tell there's anything wrong with them, so the first item is a cuisinart pot, the lid was bent, this is definitely a clear imperfection, it is listed at a lower price and i could definitely negotiate it if i needed this two tier rack you see here is priced at $39 reduced from $69.

I have good eyes even though I'm in my 30s and I'm looking and I don't see anything wrong, maybe I could lower the price a little but I'm telling you those 30 savings are definitely something I would do. Take advantage and for this bag here there is a price of irregular products for 18 in contrast to the comparison price of 30 and this could be something that you could haggle and then of course replace the button on your own more easily before I explain. you, the best times to shop, shopping secret number seven is tied to gift cards, which are not only interchangeable between the parent companies, other stores, Marshalls Home Goods, Sierra and Homesense, but I highly recommend searching online through websites like Raise Gift Card Granny or Card Cash, which I just called here, where you can often save between three and sometimes twenty percent on a gift card that you can then use at all stores associates linked to tj maxx if you have a Sam's Club membership and by the way for those of you watching, I offer store

They have significant reductions at certain times during the course of the year, not tied to that occasion, a hot spot for savings is tied to any purchases you make between mid-October and Christmas Eve, an added bonus is that they don't have the typical 30 days. return window so you get that extended return time which is great for the holidays. This is great for holiday decorating, dressing up for special occasions, and making sure you really love an item with extra time to return it. Anything purchased between October and the end of the year can usually be returned until the end of the following January, so more than three months for this return period.

If you shop in October, the normal refund policy applies to any purchases made on or after December 26th and you'll usually find some of the best clearance sales around July, August and January for those of you. who don't mind buying merchandise out of season. Secret number nine: We all love shopping on the weekends in general, if that's what your work schedule allows, but this is actually one of the worst times to shop at tj maxx tj maxx sale their Monday products to Friday and while some stores I've surveyed apparently restock on Tuesdays, your store's replenishment schedule may differ regionally, but the beginning of the week is usually when new inventory arrives, is when prices are reduced and for the On the weekend most of those products are picked up, sales are not as rampant and you are essentially dealing with someone's leftovers, so at the beginning of the week, better, Monday to Friday, your key time to buy at a time, leave. to explain how to spot pricing errors and a purchase you should be very careful about, but for shopping secret number 10, know how to read a price tag on tj maxx and you will be guaranteed success on all your future purchases.

Let's start with the white label: this is usually a label that has no sticker and this is the normal price, unless you are really in love with the item and need it specifically on that day and at that time, you are paying the normal price and that It's something we simply don't pay for. allowed in my home unless it is an absolute emergency if you see a red label on top of a white label or those red stickers on top of any other price tag, which is the clearance price, which is not necessarily the lowest price, it which I will explain.

At one point, if you see a blue tag, it means it is linked to an item with a matching piece. This blue shopping tag is primarily an indicator to you that you should have everything in your shopping cart when you go to checkout. I mainly saw these labels. in children's and women's clothing and accessories, if you see a yellow price tag on tj maxx, which I didn't actually see, many times when I went to record this video, take that item and run, I was going to say towards the exit. but that would be shoplifting, run to the cashier so you can pay and complete your purchase.

Congratulations, you just got one of the lowest prices and finally, if you see a purple price tag, purple price tags are usually tied to the runway. tj maxx store collection, which is high end designer fashion from last season that is offered to you next season at a 70 to 80 percent discount, many of the country stores don't have them and unless that is located in a really attractive metropolitan area like chicago. or New York, somewhere downtown with a lot of people, those sections of track are a little harder to find. I didn't find any track sections in my community, so if you're looking right now and have one in yours, please. feel free to leave me a comment, let me know and in particular let me know where you are located and how you got so lucky and of course I'm just interested in what community or state a city could possibly be.

I don't need a full address that would be creepy and my wife would be really weirded out now for the bonus section of this video let's start with how to spot a pricing error and unfortunately this happens too often in many stores sometimes double check if there are duplicate pricing errors. You'll find a nice polo from Ralph Lauren for 19.99, but you'll find the exact same piece in store elsewhere for five dollars less. Tj Maxx is not trying to play any tricks on you, they often source their products from different suppliers and a garment may come from two different suppliers, which is why it has two different prices in the store.

The only pricing error I found during two different purchases was just this Nike t-shirt, which might actually be mislabeled. One section had it for 14.99 and then I found the exact same shirt for 5.99, of course that's something that can easily be settled in cash and I think the customer service inside the tj maxx store is generally very understanding and useful now for the only product that normally does notyou should buy. tj maxx, unless you understand that you are proceeding with some element of risk betting and this is your second bonus buying secret that tj maxx may not want you to know and consider this more as advice, you can find quality bets incredible and economical at tj maxx. but the big problem is that it's usually impossible to find pillowcases or duvet covers that match that specific bedding set, so if you find something you like, you'll often be stuck and not necessarily find additional covers or items that you would.

You'll usually be able to do a better job matching it in the bed bath and beyond, more importantly, if you buy bets and are absolutely in love with them and come back a week later to try to buy the same bedding set as I could have ruled it out completely. Luckily, generally what I see at tj maxx when it comes to betting is that a set of bets you see is something you may never see again, so it's very difficult to buy multiple products once you get them home and you find out if you like them, I'll tell you what, although I really like you if you made it this far in the video and for all those other people who gave up before, I still like them, I just think you're awesome if you like them. this content, like this video if you are subscribed with notifications activated.
