TK Maxx challenged me again to shop for five people on my list for under £200 and I was more than up to the challenge. To be fair the biggest challenge of all was not buying lots of stuff for myself while I was there!
First I went looking for ideas for my Lassies Who Lunch girlies. These amazingly soft blankets screamed out Lorz to me as she is always going on about how she loves soft stuff:
RRP: £49.99 TK Maxx Price: £16.99!
Steph has really been getting into baking lately and is always bringing in cakes for us to try at the office. This cake caddy would be perfect to help her carry around her latest confection creation:
RRP: £14.99 TK Maxx Price: £7.99!
I've said it before and I'll say it again--NotBlondeHusband is notoriously hard to buy for. Luckily for me this amazing designer corduroy blazer with elbow patches caught my eye straight away:
RRP: £275 TK Maxx Price: £43!
My Sister-in-Law recently came up to visit from London and was complaining that her purse was falling apart so that made her super easy to shop for this year! I loved the ruffle detail on this designer bag and knew the cream colour would match her winter coat:
RRP: £85 TK Maxx Price: £29.99!
Since retiring my Mother-in-Law has told me she doesn't really have any shoes other than high-heeled work shoes or gym shoes. These super cozy sheepskin boots would fill the gap in her wardrobe perfectly especially as it gets colder day by day in Scotland:
RRP: £80 TK Maxx Price: £34.99!
I should have paid £504.98-my total spend was £132.96--
74% off the RRP!
Not bad for 5 presents for 5 different people! I couldn't help myself (I love TK Maxx!) so if any little elves are reading this I found some amazing gift ideas for myself, too!
I've been experimenting with different ways to style my hair so I'd love this Volume and Shine Airstyler or these Sleep in Rollers!
RRP: £49.99 TK Maxx Price: £19.99!
RRP: £24.99 TK Maxx Price: £14.99!
Nearly £75 worth of styling goodies for under £35! That's not too much to ask for right?
TK Maxx really is the place to shop to get something for all your friends and family. Stock is refreshed daily so you’ll always find something new every time you visit; stores receive an average of 10,000 new products a week!
These are my top tips for shopping TK Maxx this Christmas:
· Have an open mind. Your treasure hunt begins here; have ideas of what types of presents you'd like to find rather than specific items. There is something for everyone.
· Get organised. Grab a trolley or basket and prepare to load up.
· Make light work of the rails and follow this formula:
Department (eg. womenswear). Category (dresses) and size.
· Deliveries arrive every day (sometimes more) and no two stores
are the same, so be prepared to have a new look every time.
· What you see is what they have. There are no stock rooms, everything comes
straight from the delivery to the shop floor.
Remember, when it's gone at TK Maxx, it really is gone.
Be decisive and sharpen your elbows!
TK Maxx has over 277 stores in the UK and Ireland, you can find your nearest here or shop online!
