    What can I say, I'm a ho for homegoods. I went in to get a new hair curler after mine broke, and I came out with not 1 but 2 heated hair instruments, not 1 but 2 pairs of shoes, a duffle bag, and a home decor item lmao. It's better just to not go in because you'll want to buy everything!! But at least most everything is at really great prices.

    For some reason I always get my hopes up for this place but I can never find what I want. And when I do, it's wildly expensive. But the things that I don't need are moderate prices and sorta bland. There are sections for babies, shoes, girls, junior, active, dresses, men, boys, intimates, home goods, clearance, bedding, bath, dining and more. I guess it's an okay store. And if you're looking to stage a house or decorate a room based off of a photo you saw on Pinterest then you'll be happy with this place. Generally think you could find some cooler stuff at Ross down the street. At least the bathrooms are well maintained. And the people working the store smiles and says hello.

    Receipt proving our item was purchased from the Carmel Mountain TJ Maxx on Dec 12th (1 week to the day before we tried to return it).

    I had the worst customer service experience of my life with "manager" Michael Lynch at the TJ Maxx in Carmel Mountain Ranch. I bought a pair of boots for $35 on December 12th. I wore them literally TWICE before the soles on both shoes fell apart completely, leaving my toes completely exposed and the soles flapping with every step. I have always had good experiences with TJ Maxx in the past, so my fiancé and I were certain the employees were reasonable and would be as shocked and appalled at the product defect as we were and readily issue us a refund. I am not one to ever rock the boat, but I agreed this was a clear cut case so I stepped out of my comfort zone and agreed it made sense to get a refund on these boots. We were out of town for a handful of days, so we returned to the TJ Maxx as soon as we got back--exactly one week from the day I purchased the boots (Dec 18th). I brought the disintegrating boots in the original TJ Maxx bag with the receipt (clearly showing the date of purchase (Dec 12th) and the store location (Rancho Carmel Dr. Rd.) and the purple size 8 sticker still in tact. The cashier we initially spoke to was appropriately shocked and understanding. She called the manager over to help us, which is where everything turned into a dumpster fire plummeting downhill. I started to tell him that the boots fell apart after just two wears, but before I could even finish my sentence, manager Michael Lynch, abruptly exclaimed "Absolutely NOT. We will not take these back. They've obviously been worn". I told him "yes, that's what I'm saying- I wore them just twice and they completely fell apart." He just said "No, absolutely not." He didn't even look at the receipt. Before we could say anything more, he started spouting one outlandish lie after another (peppered with stern "NO"s): "You didn't buy these at TJ Maxx" (I have the receipt. They're literally still in stock- I can go grab a pair and show you). "You didn't buy them at this location" (the receipt clearly states I did-- even the cashier pointed to the receipt and tried to tell him we obviously had, but she was too scared of him to interject loudly enough for him to hear). "You did not buy these a week ago" (again, just look at the date on the receipt, they're obviously defective) "There's no way we're taking them back. This is more than just defective, these are destroyed. (exactly- that's what I'm saying. That's why I'm here) "Absolutely not! We are not taking these back. This isn't even how we coat our shoes" (are you saying you failed to coat them properly?) etc. My fiancé told him he was going to write a review and he said "That's fine. Write all the reviews you want. I don't give a shit. There is no way I'm hell I'm taking these back. These are beyond damaged". (EXACTLY- I absolutely agree they are unacceptable and useless. I wouldn't be here if they weren't) He didn't once look at the receipt or treat either of us with an iota of humanity or respect. He had made up his mind that we were criminals and he was not going to accommodate us before he even walked up with all his go-to, accusatory, baseless lies ready to throw at us. From the very first moment, his M.O. was to gaslight me and pretend that I had bought the shoes from somewhere else and had worn them for years or thrown them in a blender. He refused to glance at the receipt because that would discredit his lies and wouldn't align with his strategy. It's one thing to say "I'm sorry, unfortunately we are unable to issue a return", but words can't describe how rude and callous he was and the dehumanizing way he spoke to me. I am embarrassed to admit I literally left in tears from the way I was treated. (I'm genuinely concerned he's going to read this and get off at the satisfaction of knowing he made a young lady cry). After reading other reviews, it seems many others have had terrible interactions with this boorish man forbidding anyone from making perfectly reasonable returns. He doesn't belong anywhere near customers and my heart cries for anyone he manages. I can not believe the owners have let his crude attitude toward customers go on for so long. I have always liked TJ Maxx, but I cannot in good conscience shop there knowing they sell defective products they won't back up and allow this man to treat customers like they're lying when trying to make perfectly justified returns. Michael Lynch, you made it very clear you don't give a shit, but I hope one day you realize the effect your behavior has on people and on the company that unwisely still employs you for some reason.

    Manager is not customer friendly. Worst customer service ever. If I wasn't Asian she would've been nicer

    They finally come up with a system for looking up receipts although returns are still a bit of a hassle but good on them for trying
