Marshalls

Marshalls

5604 S.Broadway

Opening times: M-S 9.30am – 9.30pm

Marshalls is a store where you can find designer outfits, gorgeous shoes and exciting finds for the home, all at low cost.

Marshalls is a little more upmarket than Ross Dress for Less but they are run on the same principle. They buy in overstocks, end of ranges etc. from famous brands or designer labels for low prices and they pass the savings on to the customer.

A tip for getting the most out of Marshalls is to shop there regularly. You may visit Marshalls on one occasion and find nothing and go again and find something for every member of the family. And if you see something you like – jump on it quickly, you can be sure that it won’t be there next time you visit.

The things I buy most at Marshalls are shoes and sportswear for a very particular teenage boy. Firstly – shoes. They have a wonderful selection of adult and kids shoes and some are on clearance (look on the back wall). Beware with sizing though – some are European makes and the sizing is different.

You can nearly always find trendy labels for teenagers at lower cost at Marshalls – probably on average 40% lower than usual price. Not all sizes may be available in each style, you just have to hope you’re lucky.

Marshalls also has nice sleepwear and lingerie and accessories like purses, belts, hats and scarfs. I like buying baby clothes for baby gifts from Marshalls – you can look really extravagant by buying ‘expensive’ labels when in reality you have paid no more than if you made your purchase at Kohls. There are toys and books too, with extra discounts on items out of season or things with damaged boxes. The home décor section is worth a look. They have bedding, lighting and artwork plus a great selection of photo frames.

Finally, I notice that a lot of people chose to buy their perfume and cosmetics at Marshalls. You can also find unusual food gifts including some items from Europe.

I hope you enjoy your trip to Marshalls and that you have some lucky finds!

Fashion Metro in Tyler

January 18th, 2010

Fashion Metro is a very chic place to shop. The name fits the store …..very Metro. Clothes from all sizes and very nice in my opinion. They are located on Rt 64 West next to Wendy’s and Wal Mart’s I go there from time to time just to see what they have. In fact I went there today and they were having a pretty good sale I think. I spent $23 and ended up with four things from the store. Sales ranging from $3.99 per item to the most expensive one being $8. Nice huh, I thought so. Shoes are also available, the only draw back is that the smallest size is 7 and up. So for the ladies that have small feet…like me. We are out of luck and we have to go shopping for shoes next door to Payless. Even though I can’t find shoes there it’s still very nice and they have my style of clothes.

If you are a jewelry type of girl, than you are in for a treat…because they have all types of accessories and color and size or style you can imagine. Ladies if you are looking for a very nice looking undergarments for very good price…Fashion Metro has a variety of good undergarments and lingerie to make you look good for your husband. Purses galore, belts, watches and a very nice selection of children’s clothes. Don’t worry if you are not a size one they have something for everybody…even carry things for your man also.

If you haven’t had a chance to go in and shop at the Tyler location I would recommend that the next time you are around there, you stop in and look around the store. You might just find something you can’t go home without. Unfortunately it happens to me more than I would like to admit. Make sure you only take as much money that you won’t miss ….or you will do like me and spend it all.

Tyler Hand Me Ups

January 8th, 2010

Tyler Hand Me Ups is located in Tyler Texas close to Tyler Junior College. The store is just a couple of lights down on your right in a little shopping area with another store surrounding that. Hand Me Ups is a used clothing sale where you can find lots of good deals for very low prices.

The clothes are in very good condition and many are name brands. A lot of the time the store runs lots of sales store wide anywhere from 20% – 25% off the original price. There have been many times where I found clothes for $2 or $4 per item on really cute kids clothes. Trust me I love clothes and shoes so I would not lead you astray when it comes to clothes.

Besides clothes you can find shoes and I have seen name brands there and again for a reasonable price. You can also find, purses there, belts and some jewelry. They even have perfume.

If you are looking for baby clothes, usually they have very cute items that you can find there for your children, teens or adults. If you have no money to spend on clothes, then they have an opportunity for you to where you can take your clothes there and they will sell it for you and you give them a percent and you make some also. It’s a win, win situation, I think.

Anyways the people there working are very friendly and always ready to help you find what you are looking for. You can also choose to be put on their mailing list. And anytime they have a sell or something going on they give you a notice and sometimes they send you a card with an extra 10% off. I am truly a fan of this place. I seem to be able to find great deals, nice clothes for a price that I can afford.

If buying clothes that are second hand does not bother you, I would go and check it out. There have been times that I found items that still had their tag on it. Either way you can have fun, just going and checking it out, just to see what they have. It won’t hurt going by and besides you actually might end up liking it and finding lots of new stuff for yourself or for others.

Just like any other place you probably have to go there more than once. What I mean by that is, if you go and don’t find anything to your liking, I would not give up. I would go back several times again before you decide that the place has nothing for you. Like I said in the beginning, I love it and it suits me, and my price range. But you will have to go see for yourself to see if you like it or not. Everybody likes to look nice and I don’t think too many people like to spend more than they have on clothes.

I am a girl and one that loves to be girly but don’t have lots of money to spend on it so I look for good deals and they seem to have it.
