I will admit that I have a weakness for Tj Maxx. Not only can you find some good deals on clothing, but you can also get great finds in the shoes, books, and housewares departments. I have seen Mizuno running shoes for $26 and have purchased 400 sheets for $20 (clearance), a high-quality pasta machine for $15, and a Kim Parker canvas print for $30 (clearance). Their baby books at $3-$6 make great shower gifts as well. This is one of those places where it is best to look often to find the best deals.
