Home Delights On Offer At TK MAXX In Their New Oxford Street Store

*I was invited along to the TK MAXX store and given a gift card to spend while I was there. But all thoughts, opinions (and occasional gushing statements) are all my own

TK MAXX has always been a store I’ve been drawn to, a one-stop-shop and somewhere I can lose myself for hours in. Clothes, shoes, accessories, beauty, and most importantly for me homeware. Even when I still lived at home during university I did everything I could to make my space my own. And then when I got my own place homeware took on even bigger importance.

As we’re going to be moving into a house next year *fingers crossed* I always find myself looking for items. Even though I don’t know the layout of what the house may look like. And I don’t know what colour schemes we may have (which does limit my purchasing) I’m still drawn to buy things. Our storage unit is now slowly filling up with things I’ve bought for a house I don’t yet own.

And that’s where the TK MAXX family comes in. We have a pretty sizeable store in my hometown of Watford, but I was invited along to check out the relatively new store which has opened up on Oxford Street. The branch opened up around July so it’s still pretty new. And as I hadn’t hit up Oxford Street for a while I’d not seen it in its full glory before.

Big labels, small prices

Just a minute from Oxford Circus station lies 4 floors of TK MAXX greatness. As you enter the beauty and accessories hit you straight away. And then as you go up through floors of clothing to get to the homeware on the third floor. This is what I’d come to explore.

As anyone who’s been to a TK MAXX will know, every store is different. The stock that appears in each branch differs, and what you may see one day may never come back again. Products don’t hang around for long, and I’ve learned this the hard way after going back for items I’d seen previously to never find them. But for me that’s the beauty of TK MAXX as it makes the items more unique. And there’s a lot of fun walking around as you never know what you may find. You could visit 3 stores in one day and find unique treasures in each and every one. Or at least this is the excuse I use to visit more often than normal.

But of course, the price is one of the biggest draws for TK MAXX as prices are always up to 60% less than the RRP. I’ve gotten some amazing bargains in the branch. And always come out feeling pretty smug when I find some flashy brand I’d been eyeing up on the shelves at TK MAXX. Their motto of ‘big labels, small prices and ridiculous possibilities’ is always spot on and you never know treasures you’re going to find.

TK MAXX Oxford Street

The space inside the Oxford Street branch doesn’t look huge from the outside, but it’s a bit of a Tardis. Each aisle dedicated to a new area from bathroom accessories and bedding to baking and cooking accessories. One of my favourites is the whole aisle dedicated to Tupperware. It’s the kind of thing you rarely ever have on your shopping list, but there’s always something that can help you out. Plus the array of candles. Anyone whose been to a TK MAXX will know the wonder of their candles. And all the Autumn/ Pumpkin candles were out when I visited so I lost about half an hour sniffing them all. Half an hour well spent in my books.

Another thing that TK Maxx do so well is their seasonal stock. At the moment it’s all Halloween based and over the years I’ve bought quite the stash of pumpkins and skulls from TK Maxx. But it’s the same at Christmas, Easter, Springtime etc. There’s always so much great seasonal stock that matches the time of year.

Considering it’s in the busiest hub of London the store was so clean and well laid out. I’m sure the staff ends up running around all day putting items back. But it was so easy to move around, even if I did have to dodge the occasional person with my slowly filling trolley. I had no list or agenda when I went into the store but managed to find some absolute gems during my wander round.
