They put out most new stock on Wednesdays. That is also when I usually find new markdowns.

I have even seen a Prada bag at my local TJs , but it was marked as much as Saks had it at the time, so was no deal at all. I wasn't the only lady who pointed that out to the manager, but he just shrugged. So, check prices before jumping on something. Saks and the other big stores often have seasonal sales with very good prices.

I was at my local TJ MAxx trying to find those deals you ladies have been speaking of.. celine, ysl, prada etc. Anywho, i find a Tylie Malibu bag. I have one of her purses, the Crystal Pyramid King in brown. I use that as my go to bag for small errands... I grab that bag to look at it and the first thing i notice was the MADE IN CHINA tab?? Im like WTF?? I only bought her bag because they say that All Tylie products are made from the finest materials and are handmade in the United States of America using unique Tylie craftsmanship and design processes. Soooo... why would a bag at TJ MAxx have a made in china tab? I grabbed another one but different style, same thing, made in china! I told my hubby and he said maybe they are fake?

I do not think the bag you found was fake. Looks like they make some of their products in China now. This bag on Endless is made in China even the description of the brand says "handmade in US".

Where are you coming from? The stores on Plainfield Road and 55th Street
If you can find your way to LaGrange Road, take that to Plainfield and head west - you'll run right into it!

This is sometimes true - you might be able find some of these bags at a lower price on sale at major department stores, but the nice thing about TJMaxx is that they offer layaway (on full price merchandise only), so if you're a little short, and need a little more time to pay, you can take advantage of that (that's how I scored my Celine from TJMaxx)

I went to my local TJ's in NYC and they had some Kooba bags. I will def stop by weekly from now on. It's right near my office.

I picked up an Rebecca Minkoff alligator embossed Nikki at local (L.A.) Marshall's for $150 today.

Good score! I have yet to find a Niki I like at a good price. Congrats!

Wow, the nicest brands I've ever seen at my local stores are Michael Kors and Coach!

i just saw the cutest marc jacobs bag at Marshalls, but the color wasnt me.
