off-price stores

Besides shopping at the outlet malls, there are other good alternatives such as off-price stores like Nordstrom Rack, Last Call by Neiman Marcus, or department stores such as Marshalls, TJ Maxx, and Loehmann's.

Fitted & Flat Sheets + 2 Pillow Cases at $40
These stores carry a wide spectrum of goods and brands. In addition to clothes, handbags, shoes, and fashion accessories, you can also find home goods at Marshalls and TJ Maxx.



Each of these stores has different product/brand and pricing strategies. And you never quite know what you can find and that's what makes browsing in these stores so exciting! I've seen handbags by Chloe, YSL, Prada at Loehmann's, and Louboutins and Manolos at the Rack and Last Call.  Some shoppers have also reported finding penny items (yes, a penny or 1ct only) such as a pair of shoes or a top.  So really, the fun is in browsing and going through the racks!

I like Marshalls and TJ Maxx for home goods.  Just the other day I was looking at getting new sheets and was surprised with my finds.  And if you are a little more patient and wait a little longer, the goods get moved to clearance and that's when you really got yourself a great deal!
