The off-price retailer has been benefiting from a disappearing middle class and higher demand for budget options — two factors that have been hurting department stores like JCPenney and Sears. However, our data shows that it is now an underlying constant in terms of what consumers look for when shopping," Neil Saunders, managing director of GlobalData Retail, wrote in a note to investors in August. According to the company , much of it comes down to the way TJ Maxx buys its merchandise.
It purchases stock from manufacturers that make too much and department stores that overbuy, and it jumps on deals at the end of the season. Source: TJ Maxx. For you.

The same is true of Bicester Village. The outlet phenomenon began when designer brands realised that, regardless of season, their goods still had a market — and a value.
Think of them as an extended sale, augmented with influxes of product from elsewhere in the world. A few outlet malls in the United States carry ranges specially created for them - the designer brands I contacted with have a presence in Bicester, as well as representatives of the outlet village itself, deny this is the case there. The shopping experience is also profoundly different. TK Maxx is a free-for-all, high jostling with low, the implication being that bargains await.
The catch? That experience means the clothes generally costs a little bit more. TK Maxx can often feel like a jumble sale. And, as with a jumble sale, you could walk away with a treasure or get ripped-off with some trash. Our buyers are on the hunt throughout the year for the hottest brand name and designer products of the season from fashion for the entire family to accessories, beauty and home.
We buy from all kinds of vendors - big names and designer labels, top brands, up-and-coming labels and vendors known for stylish fashion and exciting gems. We also have some merchandise manufactured for us to bring you exceptional fashion and quality at an amazing price.
Our buyers choose many different colours, styles and fabrics so there is always a great choice for you. Our buyers are opportunistic and entrepreneurial.
So when a designer overproduces, or other stores overbuy, we swoop in, negotiate the lowest possible price and pass the savings on. Unlike other types of retailers that buy seasonally, we buy throughout the year and so have new brand name and designer products arriving several times a week with every delivery containing thousands of items. Our retail website, tkmaxx. Our rapidly changing assortments create the treasure hunt experience that our customers love. So stop by often to see our latest designer finds and fantastic gems, all with amazing savings.
If you love it, grab it.
