We walked to this TJ Maxx from our hotel while visiting Milwaukee. None of us had any specific…read moreneeds, but we were happy to find some gems at a nice price. We started in the beauty section and I immediately found clearance hair clips/claws that were cute and a great deal. My friends were having a great time looking for items and when one of them decided to try some things on I decided to look a bit harder and found two pairs of jeans- that is not something that normally happens! Not only did the jeans fit great but they were $20 and $24 which in my mind is a great price especially considering they'd be $70-100 regularly. We also browsed the shoes and I happened to find the perfect pair for a wedding I had coming up, so of course I grabbed them. On top of the other finds I also found a small toy for my dog. I ended up with two sets of hair claws/clips, two pairs of jeans, a pair of heels and a dog toy for under $100. While we only interacted with the staff at the register they were also nice and my friends and I all ended up finding a few items here.

Headed in for a throw-pillow and that's all we left with (can you believe it!?). This home store has everything from trendy furniture, rugs, and lamps, to storage, decor, and kitchenware. The prices are spectacular so it's perfect when you need a little home-refresh. We're also currently in the market for outdoor furniture, something they also offer. There were a few options we say that were really great quality -- heavily debating going back to purchase. Love the rocking chair and table set, as it's very modern. The store itself is clean and well-kept. I suppose you could call it organized, though there are just so many items it can feel a little chaotic. Definitely can take some time to pick through and find gems. I'll be back!

Years ago, it was called Lands End Outlet. Then it changed to Lands End Inlet. Now, it's Land's…read moreEnd. I used to shop here regularly when it was the outlet. Recently I visited and the quality of the clothing here is still high. When I was there, they were running a coat special: drop off your old coat for donation and get $20 off your purchase. I knew I had a couple of items I could donate, so I went home, picked up my old coats, and came back for my $20 off. In the back of the store is a "discount room" where you can find items on sale. There is men's, women's and children's clothing here, but the biggest selection is for women. I want to shout out to a couple of employees who provided excellent service recently. I dropped off an elderly relative while I finished an errand a few doors down. By the time I came back (which wasn't too long), they had helped her by bringing her a few items she wanted and had brought items to try on in different sizes, and she was already in the fitting room trying on items. They were wonderful. Dawn and Caroline, I think were their names, so shout out to them for their kindness and attentiveness! They made the shopping experience enjoyable and we are likely to come back because of them. Excellent customer is one way to differentiate yourself. Also, I want to mention that everything in the store was 40% off that day. With the $40 off our purchase with the two donated coats, we ended up with an excellent value. I have been shopping at Lands End for over 20 years. This was our go-to for winter coats for years. The coats are great for kids and adults. The clothing is classic, not trendy, and high quality. So for "Thank You Thursday" today I want to say thank you to Lands End for your excellent service!!

They have it all, somewhere, but it will likely take you 20 minutes to find it. And the checkout lines can be epic on the weekends. Still, where else are you going to go for your craft needs? That's right - there aren't many other places to buy glitter paint, knitting yarn, bedazzling supplies, fake flowers and acres of ribbons under the same roof. So you're stuck. One thing that makes the generally "meh" Michaels experience better is the regular coupons in the weekend papers meaning you can score some good deals. I always forget mine until I'm in the parking lot in desperate need of some supplies.
