Like most other ladies my age, I LOVE a good shopping trip. Do I want to redecorate my room or find some new stationery? Off to Homegoods, I go. Am I feeling like getting a new outfit (or twenty)? Off to check the racks of TJ Maxx and Marshalls. These stores have it all for way less than other stores. If you can't find it at Homegoods, TJ Maxx or Marshalls, it doesn't exist.
Here are the 9 stages every lady has experienced while shopping at Homegoods, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls:
Entering the store
You never really go to these stores with something in particular in mind. It's best (and maybe a little dangerous) to go in with an open mind. You never know what you'll find!

But you end up buying new chinaware, chairs and a table.
"Ooooh! Food!"

While Homegoods, TJ Maxx and Marshalls may not have sales, they do have a great clearance section!

I need a new planner!

You always seem to find a few extra purchases through the line. And who could forget the bags!

You pull out your TJX Rewards Credit Card and purchase all of your newfound treasures. While these stores may not have sales, the everyday prices are low, so your bill is not even close to what it'd be if you paid full price for anything.

Of course I needed a new notebook, felt letter board and throw pillow!
