I'm usually a TJMaxx (aka Winners in Canada and TKMaxx in the UK) girl, but don't mind having Barbie's little sister, Skipper, closer to home now. Merchandise is different every time you go, and you usually have to be prepared to do some rooting around to perhaps find something close to what you were looking for, or things you hadn't budgeted for at all. Don't think I've ever left with an empty buggy. Today I was looking for some frames and/or shadow boxes. No boxes, other than some really big ones that were nice, but far too large for my purposes. Got a couple nice frames. One from the clearance aisle. Managed to get out for under $20. I think that's a first for me. ;) The store was clean and well organized. Couple of associates on the floor pretty much ignored me. I wasn't looking for help, though an acknowledgement would have been good customer service, but the cashier was very friendly. There had been a bit of a lineup at checkout. They quickly brought another staff member up to help out. Good response so people aren't waiting longer than necessary. read more
