    Visited this location for the first time around noon today, and I was able to find parking. I was pleasantly surprised by how organized and well stocked it was. I walked around then realized I started gathering items so luckily the carts are all inside so I was able to grab a cart while holding the items I had slowly started to collect. The dressing room employee was nice and helpful. The cashier was also friendly. I was able to leave my cart while I tried on clothes and came back and it was still there. The bag selection was really nice today. Everything is always first come first serve with stores such as these. They always have good values, but I recommend having a list of things you need, which will help narrow down what you end up buying. They had a good selection of stainless steel pots, and they had these cute mini stainless steel All clad pans!! Also good deals on the glassware for meal prepping! I'd recommend this location I was pleasantly surprised. There is also a trader joe's in the same parking block, but I'd avoid that area. Beware of driving on the trader joe's side, it can get risky from people backing up and not seeing you yikes.

    When you are a ketogenically adapted non-binary, the whole men's/women's clothing divide no longer matters. The simple truth is that "womenswear" is better designed & more stylish than menswear at places like T.J. Maxx. I found great $100 retail Lucky jeans in sizes 6 & 8 that fit me perfectly when nothing in the menswear collection even came close. So, forget about those things and buy what looks great on your keto-toned body. Don't forget to collect kitchen tools for your keto cooking as well. Lodge cast iron. Weber grilling tools. Just scan everything using your ketone-primed augmented mind with an eye for the quality to price ratio that makes T.J. Maxx a welcome supplement to Amazon & other mega retailers like Target or Walmart.

    I have been having the best luck shopping at this tj maxx. I found this amazing GUCCI wallet for $239! Seriously the best deal ever, I had been eyeing it at Nordstrom but it was over $800. The store is organized most of the time, specially when you get there before noon.

    I love this store! Great bargains always! This particular store,here in San Mateo, is well organized, clean and with a nice selection of handbags (not as well as for the shoes). All the time I interacted with people working here, they were knowledgeable and helpful, it never happened to me of returning something, so I really didn't experience their customer service yet. Living pretty close, it's very easy for me to come here first, when I look for something in particular, I have never been disappointed.

    I love TJ Maxx! Just not this store.. The place is a mess, not that all TJ Maxx normally isn't. Just was a combination of a mess and didn't have anything of interest. All they had was the junk that no one really wanted and half the boxes were opened and damaged.

    The stuff I was trying to return, not scanned by the employee because she was lazy. Now they'll only give store credit!

    This is my favorite TJM just because it is clean and neat and people haven't bought everything. There's still some good stuff left to buy.

    Most depressing TJ Max ever. Small as a shoe box and filled with low quality crap. Do yourself a favor and go to ANY other TJ max.

    Nordstrom never disappoints. The store is always clean, organized, and the customer service is on…read morepoint. Every time I walk in, someone is quick to check in and ask if I need assistance without being overbearing. Not gonna lie... this is also my go-to spot when I need to take a dump Their bathroom is consistently clean and well-maintained. Lowkey feels like people are starting to catch on though, so I might need to start gatekeeping that one. I'm also a sucker for cologne, so I always swing by to check out new scents and ask for samples if they have any. Shoutout to Belinda (manager) who helped me out--she seriously knew everything about the store like she's been there forever. Super helpful, great sense of style, and just made the whole experience better. Nordstrom, you've got an amazing employee--give her a raise, she deserves it!

    Attended an early morning Beauty Trend Show in late July. It featured guest speakers talking about…read morecertain featured products, their attributes and makeovers on stage with the specific product reps applying it on models. They had light bites like croissants, yogurt fruit cups, coffee, juice, water and prosciutto wrapped melons. They had a DJ, raffles, free samples, freebies with a purchase and the theme was Hawaiian so we were given plastic leis and a big yellow mesh bag with a goodie bag filled with some samples. The presentation was upbeat and fun except for some ladies who were constantly chatting and even a couple of ladies behind me who just kept talking throughout the whole show so it was hard to hear. I don't know if one was translating from English but I thought it was very inconsiderate. It was already sometimes hard to hear because the speakers had to hold a microphone while trying to do a makeover and/or the music was also loud. Despite the interruptions, the reps and employees kept it upbeat. We ended up getting coupons under certain seats so that was a bonus for those who didn't win a gift basket from the raffle. Those baskets were generous with products!! After the show, women scattered to the respective cosmetic reps to try samples, buy with purchase and take advantage of the extras the reps brought for both the Beauty Trend Show and the Anniversary Sale. I reached out to the Beauty Manager, Belinda as I wanted some tips for eye makeup with a MAC rep. Belinda set up an appointment with a MAC Field Exec Shane Turner who was also a presenter. I showed up for my appointment but he was helping other customers who wanted to take advantage of the sales freebies for the day so I had to wait in the chair for maybe 10-15 minutes. He told me he'd wish there were more associates to help out. He seemed serious and overwhelmed. I told him about the MAC products I use and that caffeine irritates my eyes. He offered one product and said it doesn't have caffeine but I found out it had some in the ingredients list when I got home. I asked about the wear on a satin lipstick and he said it was long-wearing but it wore off later on in the afternoon. He applied a Green liner that was supposed to be long-wearing as well but that ended up smearing by the afternoon when I was still at the mall. He used a too radiant & brown tone concealer so that wasn't the correct shade. He gave some tips that were helpful but was disappointed in the actual products used. Afterwards, I went to 111 Skin and bubbly, enthusiastic, positive & informative Lupe the 111Skin rep was really fun to talk to and l learned about the line. She ran out of eye patches as a ton of women were lined up to try them. I had to leave the line earlier so I could make my MAC appointment so I missed out. I ended up learning about the product line and bought a serum after she applied it on me. I was amazed at the results! She was able to give me samples of their products so I could try before I buy so I was happy with that. I went to try some Jo Malone perfume and wanted to try a sample but they ran out of the tester on one. I was only able to spray some on my arm. When I checked out with a male employee, I noticed he had a few other yellow totes with samples and asked him about that. That was for the Influencers who RSVP'd originally for that day and I happened to be one of them so he gave me one! Afterwards, I went upstairs to look for more Anniversary sale items. The helpful Asian female clerk helped me locate some items that were on my list. I was happy they had a lot of sizes and merchandise at this location. They were well-stocked! This is a convenient location and have online store pickups upstairs which is convenient. The eBar has quick bites and I was able to get a Green Smoothie.
