This TJ Maxx, unfortunately always disappoints. Now, before we dive into why, I will highlight the…read morepositives, which is that the staff is always really friendly, the store itself is always really clean and well organized, and the lines are never super long. The reason that it's super disappointing, however, is that the inventory always seems super sparse, and it's located next to a Ross and dare I say the Ross usually has more in inventory than this TJ Maxx. Also, whatever they usually have in their sales section is priced surprisingly high. Overall, not the best location, if you're really bored and wanna do some casual browsing sure, but if you're actually looking to find a great bargain on something unexpected this isn't the location to go to.

I love me some TJJ Maxx! I have been shopping at this particular location for a very long time, and…read morewas surprised when I saw I hadn't reviewed it. This particular one is located right off harbor boulevard next to home Depot, and has plenty of parking. Entering the store can be a little overwhelming as they really do have something for everybody and then some. There are plenty of jewelry, items, luggage, home goods, and of course clothing. I always come here because sometimes my weight fluctuates a little bit and I don't feel like spending a million dollars from for some designer jeans. I much rather come in and pay 20 bucks for a pair of jeans that probably will not last me 6-8 months as my weight continues to drop. In addition to that, they have plenty of food items. Which is very tempting for me, because they also have a great selection of candy, nuts, and flavored popcorn. It's a dangerous place if you're looking to trim down. The bottom line? This is a great t.J Maxx, and I would highly recommend it for anyone who lives in the Costa Mesa area. Do yourself a favor and go check this place out today!

Find as it takes up over half of 8 shopping center right off of harbor boulevard. Lots of parking, but this place can get busy so choose your hours wisely. Inside the store everything is neat and clean. Honestly, it's one of the better run targets that I have been to. They do a great job of facing the shelves, and making everything neat and organized for the customers. One thing I do like about this store, is they have a very good grocery department. I don't usually make a habit of buying my groceries from Target, but on those off chances when I have a need for a gallon of milk or something to eat that I need quickly, they always seem to have everything that I want. Plus this particular Target has a CVS pharmacy which is great, I used to pick up my prescriptions here. And there's never a long wait at all. Added bonus, this particular Target has a Starbucks in it. So if you need a cup of coffee while you're shopping or on your way out, they've got you covered. Bottom line? This is a very good go-to Target in the area. They've got everything you need and actually have decent prices. Don't forget to get the app so that you can get an extra 5% off.

This one was so clean and tidy. It was nothing of what I've experienced in any Marshalls that I've gone to on the east coast. They also have a much larger assortment of most items throughout the entire store. Even the luggage section was expanded two days after my initial visit on Monday 8.24.26 The prices are very good with what you see in any of the other stores. The service is fast, but not rushed and very friendly. I was a little alarmed when I got there and saw at least 15 people or more in that long line. When I checked out the line was as long if not longer but it went better than fairly quickly. Added a Samsonite suitcase to my hardly existing travel essentials. Kudos to all of the staff in this Costa Mesa store. Keep doing the great job you're doing that shines through the entire store from walk in to walk out. Looking forward to my next purchase very soon here, at this location. Until then wonderful staff.

This Marshalls is honestly pretty solid amongst the rank of Marshalls…read more The store itself is massive, they have a good amount of inventory, they have decent beauty/skincare from time to time, tons of stuff on clearance. Most of the time, they don't even have a security alarm going off (honestly this is a flex iykyk lol) also, the majority of the store is very nicely kept and organized (reference my photos) Today I found that they recently received a batch of joes sugar free toasted coconut syrup. I haven't been able to find this anywhere!!! For $5.99. It's a steal! If you also have been looking for it to add to your lattes or make dirty sodas out of, I'd make a trip soon because you just know it won't be there for long!

Really disappointing experience today…read more I stopped by Bloomingdale's on a Sunday evening to shop for a dress for a friend's wedding. We couldn't find anyone to help us get into a fitting room, so I used one that was wide open with no sign indicating it was reserved or unavailable. A few minutes later, a personal shopper named Bing came over and told me I had to get out because she needed the room for her clients. What shocked me wasn't that she needed the room, it was that she expected me to leave immediately without even letting me put my own clothes back on. I ended up walking through the store wearing the dress I was trying on while carrying my outfit and bra to another fitting room. It was honestly humiliating. If fitting rooms are reserved for personal shopping, they should be clearly marked or kept closed. And if someone is already inside, the least they deserve is the chance to get dressed before being asked to move. I've always expected better customer service from Bloomingdale's, which made this experience especially disappointing.

I want to give special recognition to Catherine in Asset Protection at Nordstrom South Coast Plaza…read more I had lost a pair of very sentimental black-and-white scalloped sunglasses that belonged to my late mother. They are irreplaceable to me, and I was incredibly upset thinking they might be gone for good. Catherine treated the situation with real care and urgency. After I spoke with her, she reviewed the video footage right away. She found me on the footage, confirmed the time I was in the store, and saw the key detail that solved everything: I had walked out of Nordstrom with the sunglasses on my head. Because Catherine caught that detail, I realized the glasses were not lost at Nordstrom and had to be at my next stop. I called Free People Movement in Marina del Rey, and they had them. I got them back. Catherine's professionalism, patience, and attention to detail made all the difference. She didn't dismiss the situation. She helped me figure out what actually happened, and because of her, I was reunited with something that meant a great deal to me. I have been a Nordstrom customer for many years, and people like Catherine are exactly why Nordstrom has always stood out to me. Please make sure she and her managers know how grateful I am. She was extraordinary.

Truly amusing how wide of a range one can experience in customer service on a single visit at this…read moreNordstrom. (It was consistently this wildly different during each of my last 6 visits or so.) Some of the associates are extremely helpful, genuinely amiable and make every customer feel valued (today, that was Mimi, from the Trends section on the 2nd floor). She asked about my day, quickly and kindly helped with my transaction and left me with a smile. Unfortunately, just prior to working with Mimi, I had attempted to request help from an associate at the Reformation section, to no avail. Initially, I noticed an associate chatting with other customers while behind the counter (this was around 1:30 pm on a Saturday) and the associate, Julie (I believe), asked me to wait a minute because she would be right back. After waiting at the counter for several minutes I lost hope and went over to another counter. Later, when I came back around I saw the aforementioned associate ringing up other customers at a nearby counter. I'm not one to make presumptions, but it did come across as if the associate cared more about increasing her immediate sales volume than actually assisting customers. At the very least, it would be nice if she had kept her word after telling a customer she'd be "right" back instead of ghosting them. Overall, I would give 5 stars to half of the employees here and 1 to the other half. Consistency is key!
