Stopped in at TJ Maxx on a Friday afternoon to check out the home goods. It was packed with people…read moreand with inventory. That store carries a lot of stuff! I had a hard time taking it all in because I was so overwhelmed. One of the sections I spent some time checking out was the gourmet snacks. I saw lots of scrumptious looking food, like cookie packages with half shortbread clotted cream cookies and half gingerbread with dark chocolate pieces. They also had lots of different types of pasta, coffee, tea, candy, chips, cocktail mixes, and more. I didn't buy anything because I'm trying to cut back on snacks, but I'm still thinking about the shortbread/gingerbread cookies days later. Overall the store was neat and tidy despite the crowded shelves, and the line to checkout was pretty short. In addition to gourmet snacks, the home goods section offers decorative items for the kitchen, garden, and home, as well as necessities like pots & pans, serving dishes, drink-ware, towels, etc. I didn't buy any items, but did make note of some nice home decor I might want to go back for (as well as those cookies).

They are terribly understaffed, however, they have so much selection! Which is why they need more…read morestaff! My daughter and I drove from Monterey, about 1 1/2 hours. We don't rate a TJ Maxx in Monterey. , Our Macy's is always quite empty and very limited selections. It was great. We each got some workout clothes a couple of housewares and some fun nonsense items. Such a good time we spent a couple of hours there and since I had a TJ Maxx credit card well that says it all lol! I decided to do some of my Christmas shopping on a lot of clearance aisles too! It was great. It was worth the drive. I just wish TJ Maxx would think that Monterey was worth the store.

I stopped by Francesca's to check out their closing sale. The store was socked with many nice…read morethings. The sale rages from 30 to 60%. All the costume jewelry was 30% off. Dresses were 40% off. I didn't see anything that was 60% off. I was warmly greeted by the sales associate, when I walked in. I haven't been here in years. I have bought jewelry from here in the past but stopped coming here because the gold items I purchased all tarnished and the quality was just not worth the price. They did have some cute purse charms. I decided to buy one and got 30% off. The sales associate said they may not be closing for good. They are not sure yet. Well the sign out front claims different. I had just read an article that these stores are closing for good. I really wish them the best. I hope that article was wrong.

I like to shop here because i like their cute and girly styles. Me and my friend was trying on this…read morewhite sweaters see how it looks but it turned out so cute so i bought it. I also bought a few items online last month they had really good deals and more sizes. The cashier there was helpful, i was looking for size small but all sold out and she asked if i wanted to order in store and ship to the store for free. I also like their earrings some are so cute. Price is a bit high but good quality.

This place is your cheap version of Forever21. Definitely the place to go if you need a quick,…read morecheap, one time outfit for the club or bar scene. They have a few items that are meant for everyday casual wear, which are sometimes worth it. Similar to Forever21, it's hit or miss every time you go in. Their customer service is lacking, but at least they're not rude.

Avoid this place. I…read morewent there with my wife and we never got greeted and couldn't find any employees to help. Oh there was an employee there at the cash register, but she was too busy texting on the job to care what was going on in the store. We walked out never having even been greeted and left wanting to have made a purchase.

We were shopping at Oakridge Mall today and stopped by Nordstrom Rack before going home…read more It was busy inside, but I have to compliment Nordstrom's team of employees for having everything neat and organized today. All the displays were done so nicely for holiday shopping. They had a huge variety of items and a section for stocking stuffers, which I thought was very clever. I came specifically for a few pairs of the hidden socks/no-show socks. They actually had quite a variety of colors and options. I bought a few pairs of them for a really good price. I also found some gifts to give for Christmas. The checkout line was very long. They did have five employees at the checkout, which made the line move fast. Overall, we had a great experience shopping here today.

I've been wanting to go to Redemption for several months and finally made it to downtown Campbell…read moretoday to check it out. It's a cute boutique offering California-made items such as pottery, clothes, skin care products, jewelry, art, and more. The store is nicely organized and their items are neatly displayed. A table with pottery near the entrance caught my eye right away. I also enjoyed checking out the flavored salts and oils for cooking, room diffusers, wall art, and jewelry. I was surprised to see they carry the wonderful Osea skin care products as I didn't know they were made in California. I ended up buying a ceramic spoon rest, room spray, and a tiny gold "diamond" ring. Their prices were reasonable. The store owner rang up my items and was very friendly and nice. I will definitely be back to shop here again.

This was my first time checking out this cute little store!! I know I did the beer walk a couple…read moreyears ago as well as a wine walk but I think I just stayed outside because I didn't know you could venture into the stores with your drinks in hand! Lol oops! This particular day we were walking around and discovered this cute little store!! I thought these mixed drink bottles were so cute. I had to take a picture!! For 10 or $20 you could buy one of these along with a bottle for your friend or as a cute housewarming present!! They had different sizes, different flavors and different mixes that went for everything!! They even had a fruit punch, one with just fermented, dried fruits inside! I really like this idea! Store had a bunch of other little odds and ends as well as some local soaps, candles, clothes, and baby items and some interesting maps or posters that showed different astrological signs as well as were certain vegetations grow within the state or even the time of year!! I'm not much of a gardener, but I would love to get into it! I also don't have the space but I liked the posters! I also thought I took a picture of the poster, but apparently I forgot! It was still really cute though! The lady in the store was very welcoming and friendly and if you check on the app, you get a discount with your purchase! So I'll have to save that for next time! I definitely wanna come back here and buy little stock for presents for friends and family!

Love Macys backstage! I hate how it's blue, as it looks almost like Sears, Marshalls, or Ross! But…read morefor discounted prices, I'm here! Macy's backstage Oakridge is located on the 2nd floor by the children's clothing and men's undergarments. They have a good selection for all genders, but my favorite is the shoe section. It is well organized and they have lots of designs/styles to choose from. Some of the juniors/women's clothing is not the best price, but they are constantly rotating things in and out. Don't forget, you only have 30 days to exchange/return, unlike the original Macy's!

I love their clothes and their customer service folks are friendly, but this place has lost a…read morecustomer in me. Their business policy about fitting rooms is an epic FAIL. I walked all over the store trying to find an open fitting room and all but ONE were blocked from customer use, as in, closed due to their fears about COVID, I guess. I know we're still in a pandemic, and we need to be careful, but I've shopped at other clothing stores since the post-lockdown reopening and most of them allow us to use ALL fitting rooms in the store as long as we keep our masks on while trying clothes on. Sorry they think so low of their customers that we all gotta be funneled into ONE fitting room and wait our damn turn in a big long line to try on our clothes. I had 5 dresses weighing my arm down and was not gonna wait my turn to try them on when there are 3 other large fitting rooms they could have opened up for their customers. And this is a BIG store and I walked all over the place trying to find the only open fitting room. Totally absurd and I'm sure other shoppers called bs and gave up too. That is potentially a lot of lost revenue for Macy's. The ONE fitting room had a huge line backed up down the aisle so I decided to put the dresses back onto their various racks, (way too nice of me, but again, this is not the fault of the salesforce), and I walked out. What a waste of my time and a bummer since I was so excited to try on the cute dresses. I give them one star for the cute clothes and kind service, (the ladies at each counter were very friendly), but 4 blank stars for the company's stupid policy that put me through this buzzkill, and for them not trusting their customers to keep our masks on in all their fitting rooms.
