{Giveaway is Closed}
The winner is: Kim H. #319
For many years, I have been a fan of shopping at TJ Maxx and Marshalls. I’ve bought plenty of clothes, shoes, socks, sunglasses, and accessories. Not to mention, all the home stuff that is in abundance in both stores. You never know what you will find at any given time in TJ Maxx or Marshalls. I just know I find bargains and get a lot of bang for my buck!
So, how far will $25 go?
Let me tell you how far. When TJ Maxx and Marshalls contacted me about doing a giveaway with them, I was excited. Sure, I shop there all the time, why not!
They offered me a $25 givecard and one to give away to ONE of you. Doesn’t sound like a lot, does it and at first I was a little bummed that they didn’t offer more? But really I love the stores so much, I agreed to do a little giveaway with them.
$25 at TJ Maxx and Marshalls will get you a GREAT payoff.
On my list of things to buy this month: Undies
Is it just me, or do any of you let your underwear completely wear out before you throw it out? Say it’s not just me, pleeeeease!
My underwear drawer is a sad, sad place. Stretched out elastic, droopy drawers, fallin’ apart, ole’ worn out unmentionables. So, my plan was to head to TJ Maxx and Marshalls (not kidding, that is where I usually buy my underwear, including bras!) and stocking up on a few pair of undies. I already knew that most of them are priced at about $3 each, so you can really and truly buy a whole slew of panties for $25!
And I’m happy to say, I stocked up on 9 snazzy pair of undies!
Wanna see? I normally wouldn’t show off new underwear, but for the sake of this blog story, I’m over sharing! Bear with me.
With brands like Jones New York (who knew they made undies too?), Warners (my own personal fave brand for many years), Rene Rofe, Vanity Fair and many other brands, I’m all stocked up now. Aren’t they pretty?!
Some are sold in pairs for $5.99, but most are priced at a frugal $3. And you know how I love a deal. Now I can throw out the ugly stretched out, no-elastic, worn-out, miserable excuse for underwear that is currently sitting in the drawer and now I have these pretties.
You know, just in case I get in an accident (God forbid!), I won’t embarrass my mother.
Just in time for the white sales, TJ Maxx/Marshalls is letting me give away to ONE of you a $25 giftcard too.
So, tell me.
What in the world are you going to buy with your $25 if you happen to be the fortunate winner?
Do you need new undies too? or do you have something else in mind?
Those duo stores have so much to offer from clothes, shoes, hair products, jewelry, purses, not to mention home stuff too. You will have a ball spending your giftcard as much as I did!
TJ Maxx/Marshalls is such a good way to stretch your bucks to the max. I’m excited about sharing this with you. Even though $25 doesn’t sound like a lot, it got me 9 NEW PAIR of of pretty undies and that makes me very happy!
Are you laughing yet, that I actually posted my new underwear on my blog? I hope no men stop by today.
{I was given a $25 giftcard from TJ Maxx/Marshalls to keep and one to give away to one of my readers. Thanks TJ Maxx/Marshalls! I’m a fan for life!}

You crack me up. lol I would take any gift card for any amount. I think I must have bought all my panties at the same time years ago, because, now I throw at least one pair a week out. It’s getting to be slim pickins’.
Take care and God Bless you Paula
For me, it would be jewelry and accessories. A girl can never have too many pieces!!!
We can always use more underwear, socks, tights, and leggings around my house.
I need new pillows for our living room.
Oh I always seem to want a new purse so I might look for one if I was lucky enough to win $25 to spend at TJ Maxx but then again, I might just have to buy one anyway!
I can’t believe you showed us your undies!! That’s awesome. I would buy shoes or leggings. Thanks for making me smile today!
I love TJ Maxx and Marshalls! I would either put it towards a new bag (been wanting a crossbody one) or new clothes. I always find the cutest shirts/blouses there.
If I won the giftcard the money would go towards some new home furnishings. I’m looking to update my bedside lamp in my bedroom.
I love the aisles that have all the coffee, chocolates, sauces and such. Can’t seem to get out of there without buying something in that aisle!
So for me, gourmet food
I would buy candles to get through the dark and cold winter:) Undies can wait…..
I would look for a new pair of shoes for my son’s wedding.
I would love to purchase a couple of new bath and hand towels for the bathroom that we just repainted. Thanks for the chance to win!!
hubby and I could use some new pillows,
My favorite pair of undies came from TJ Maxx several years ago. They are Calvin Klein, and I’ve looked and looked for more just like them, but to no avail…boo hoo. So, I would spend the gift card on new undies or a new coverlet for our bed. Thank you for the opportunity, Rhoda!
I have an abundance of undies, but do love some of the high-end handbags in the stores. A $25 gift card would make the price even more reasonable. I am always able to find a bargain in the housewares section, too.
You’re so funny! Don’t even get me started on underwear. I think most of us are in the same boat with our disgraceful unmentionables. Once again your blog, refreshing honesty and sense of humor have brightened my day … thanks for the smile!
I am a ‘lil southern school teacher so I probably tights….I love tights. Bright color tights to make the kidos smile on a cold dreary day. Or storage……or jewelry…..naaaa, I’d buy tights!!
Hand towels! I need a few cute ones for the guest bath.
I love TJ Maxx and Marshalls. My son is getting married in April, so I would probably use the gift card to help with new outfits and accessories for parties and wedding showers!
Sweet Deal! I love the fun clothes and Homegoods!!
How fun, my favorite store! And you are so right, $25 goes a long way. I would love a fun new accessory for my work in progress living room.
Plz add me to the drawing I just purchased new undies but could really use new bras and ya I will post them on my blog if I win!!!
I love TJMaxx and Marshalls and would either buy hair products or undies…$25 would be fun to spend there.
New underwear sounds good,.but I could use a blanket for my bed too
Would love to put the gift card toward new towels!
I will combine with a gift card I got for christmas and buy a new quilt for my guest bedroom.
I like to go in to the stores just to see what they have-it is always a treat to come home with something unexpected!
I love T.J. Maxx and Marshalls. There is a Mega Marshalls in Osage Beach, MO that is totally awesome. Love the home goods!!!! Rhoda, thanks for an awesome blog!!!!
I would love to buy something new for my home.
Love your blog and love the giveaway! I would get something to decorate my home with! Thanks kathy
Love your undies!!! I would SO buy something totally for me-myself-I!
Oh, I would love to win this. I need new sheets sooo bad. Mine are Stretched out elastic, droopy fallin’ apart, ole’ worn out!
I need some new cookie sheets and some Valentine decor.
I would use the $25 on something completely frivolous….like Valentines or Easter decor!
I shop there constantly, so I could spend it on anything. Probably would spend it on hand towels right now for my bathroom, they desperately needs some sprucing up!
I would buy something frivolous, too. Maybe more kitchen stuff or a cute apron like I saw just before Christmas at my local TJ.
I love that you posted your new undies on your blog. I’m a sharer, too!
If I won the card, I’d buy baskets and/or boxes for my new pantry closet re-do that I’m about to begin.
Those undies look great, but I got several pairs for Christmas, so I would buy some stretchy pants to wear to the gym. I usually change at my office before I leave work, and my current pair of pants have holes in the crotch. Does my sharing that make you feel better, Rhoda?
I would get a few outfits for my daughter. They have great sets for little girls!
I need some new accessories to go in my home!! Basically ANYTHING. Bedding, picture frames, decor, towels ……..
I love getting new undies! I don’t need any right now, so I would look for something else to spend my $25.00 on. I have been searching for a decorative tray for my console, so I would try to find one. If not, I can always find something. If I’ve got money to spend, I’ll find something to buy.
LOVE TJMaxx /Marshalls!!!
Yep I need underwear, bras and pj’s. But I really need socks, all the ones I have are all holey
tbarrettno1 at gmail dot com
id use it to buy some new socks! Mine are grody.
TJ Maxx/Marshalls are two of my favorite stores! I could spend $25 on some cute new clothes for my sweet baby boy, new picture frames for pictures of my sweet baby boy, some fun decor pieces for baby boy’s first birthday party in feb….can you tell I’m a little obsessed with shopping for my baby?
I love the jewelry department at TJ Maxx. I need a new statement piece.
Yep…new undies for me too. However, I won’t be doing a photo shoot!
Ha-so funny!!! Boy-that $ 25 went a long way-great job! I need a few
Good Luck all and Thanks so much
new dishes-wonder what all I could find?
socks-socks-and more socks
Well, I might like to think I’d buy something like underwear or socks, the truth is I would go straight to the DISHES with that gift card.
I desperatley need undies and socks. I have bought mine at both places for years… would love the gift card… thanks
Oh my I would have a hard time deciding what to buy w a GC. Something for me? the kitchen? the kids? the bathroom…love those stores. Um, yeah, you’re not alone on the panty thing, hubby recently told me I needed new ones, now that’s embarassing. LOL
I would scan all clearance sections and buy the best deal. With 6 kids someone always needs something!
I would absolutely love to win! I’m about to move into my first apartment and the list of things that I want/need is huge. Plus, I’m in lurve with HomeGoods and I believe they’re part of the TJMaxx/Marshall’s family as well.
I just splurged on a brand new bed and I’d love to get some gorgeous sheets for it. Or I’m really looking for a large white vase to use for some decorative branches a friend gave me. I also love the throw pillows that my local TJ Maxx has right now but I definitely can’t justify buying them instead of other necessities. Also, oven mitts, hand towels, lamps, cute kitchen stuff. I think I could probably spend way more than $25 but TJ Maxx has such good deals that I know I could get a lot of good stuff.
I’ve got to say, this post did make me laugh. That takes some nerve to post your new drawers for the entire world to see. lol! They are my favorite stores, second to Home Goods. The rinky-dink town I live in is finally getting a Home Goods, PTL!
Hi Rhoda, Happy New Year!
I’d have to say that I’d buy a nice new comfy pair of pj’s. I have a tendency to wear them out until they’re ratty.
Thanks for the giveaway!

First of all, I am laughing (totally with, not at you) that you posted your new undies on your blog…but that’s probably what I would buy too!
Thanks for the (shop)portunity!

i was thinking the same thing about my undie drawer. I am down to the strange colored ones that I got somewhere. I would have to find a store though. Hopefully, there is one in Athens. Not much in Mt.Airy.
Panties would be good, but looking to score some lamps that I can paint in red to go with my new dresser/buffet (when it’s done, lol)
Thanks!!
I would buy some new home accessories. Thanks for sharing!
Ooooh! Clothes would be nice, but I’d probably go with something for the house. (Or knowing myself, something for the kids!)
Marshalls and TJs are my two favorite stores! I buy everything there! Great find on the undies!! Thanks for another fun giveaway! Beth N.
I love those stores!!! And I get my undies there too!! LOL!
How would I spend my $25? Either on some of their specialty foods or some new face cloths or maybe some new pillows. So much fun! Thanks!
I could find so many things to buy there it’s ridiculous! I love those stores….Need a new pair of slacks for work!
I would like to browse the home decor section for some new accesories!
I didn’t even think a silly thought about the undies. Heck, if anything you inspired me to think of doing a spruce up in my own pantie dept. Ha!
If I won, I’d love to put it towards new boots! I really wanted some for Christmas but didn’t find what I was looking for. I could find “something” at TJ MAXX! Love that place!
I would put it toward a new purse. I love Marshalls!
I am working on improving my kitchen so I would use my $25 on either a knife set, cooking spoons set, pillows, or a mat.
What a genuine person you are! I am too am a TJ Maxx /Marshall’s shopper…been one for years! I don’t really know what I would put the card towards…but it would be fun trying to decide! Thanks for such a great blog…your spirit shines through every word!
I’d love to buy some cute little accesories for my living room. I <3 Marshall's and TJMaxx!
I LOVE TJMAXX!!! I would get some more decor items for our Master Bedroom. I need some wall art…
Great minds, Rhoda, great minds…I always think to replace my underwear (bras, too) in January! I could use that gift card!
i commend you for sharing your *clean* laundry with the blogosphere! i just stocked up too. with the $25 to TJMaxx/Marshall’s, I’d buy a new wallet.
Laughing here. Last count I saw was 373 comments for a $25.00 gift card! I guess we all “need” something, and at least 374 of us would love to have $25 to spend at TJMaxx or Marshalls! Loved your story, most of us won’t admit to stretched out elastic on our panties!!
I need photo frames for my grandkids christmas pictures! I love TJ’s!
I’ve been looking for a pretty new blanket or throw for my bed – this would be a great place to buy it!
I would use the gift card to buy food. I would buy bags of my favorite granola Erin Bakers fruit and nut homestyle granola and jars of Dave’s Gourmet pasta sauce. They are wonderful products that are sold for so much less here than in a market. I’ve also found gourmet pancake mixes and other goodies at TJ Maxx/Marshalls.
I would buy new yoga pants and a top, thanks.
I love TJ Maxx and Marshall’s. I would buy some home decor items for my family room! Thanks for the opportunity to win……
My dog needs one of their adorable dog beds
You must have been peeking in my undies drawer ~ I’m in the same sad shape as you were. Love your newest unmentionables, but if I were lucky enough to win the gift card, I”d run to HG and Marshalls and buy up some glittery Valentine/Easter decorations. Last year I got an awesome BIG glittered house for Easter at Marshalls for a song!!!
Oh I would have to get socks! My new dog that I adopted on Halloween from our petstores rescue adoption days likes to chew my socks. LOL….So, I think I would get some new ones without holes.
I would love to get some new dress/work pants at TJ Maxx or Marshalls. Thanks for the giveaway.
The Midwest is getting SNOW now and I NEED tall, warm socks and desperately need a new purse. The handle on mine broke but since I liked it so much I glued it. No luck tho, just keeps breaking and always at the wrong times. Undies? Naaaa…bought some just before Christmas – little gift for me and my little butt. hahaha You’re just too funny today.
I love Marshalls and TJ Maxx! If I won the gift card, I would probably buy myself a new stock pot because my pots and pans look terrible! Love your blog and thanks for the giveaway!
a pair of boots
I just found your blog on a Pinterest linky and what do I find? A Marshalls giveaway. SCORE!
I am right in the middle of a living room remodel, so lamps, art, tchochkes, you name it, $25 goes a long way at my favorite store!
New set of sheets for the bed. My flat sheet is ripped down the middle.
OK I am building a house and I need everything!! Even toilet bowl scrubbers! (since we seem to be on that subject!) ha!
I LOVE picture frames and wall art from TJMaxx and Marshalls!…Thanks, for the giveaway!….jlk
I would browse and see what strikes my fancy — but I could sure use some new undies too!
hm!!! panties sound good!! or i’d get towels, can never have too many!
I would buy jewelry, baskets, clothes, kitchen stuff…. The list goes on. Thanks for the chance to win. I love shopping here too.
Being a practical girl, and one tired of “picking my seat” so to speak, I would have to concur with you Rhonda and splurge on some brand spanking new undies in all the colors of the rainbow!
I LOVE Marshalls/TJMaxx!!! I’d be shopping for something in the kitchen-tableware section. Or maybe in shoes, can’t go wrong there. Or maybe….. the underwear!!! It’s all good!!
I would buy some decor for my house. My fiance and I are in the process of finalizing the sale of our house, so this would be such great help! I am thinking either a mirror or something to put on a table in the entry way. I just love the prices Marshall’s and TJ Maxx offer!
I would put it towards some wall art or a new clock for my living room. Thanks for the chance!
linda h.
I always find bargains at both places!!! Dishes being one of my all time fav’s !!! Pick me! Pick me!!!!
You’ve inspired me… I think I’d buy some undies too. My drawer is in pretty sad shape. Love ya blog… thanks for the chance at the giveaway!
LOL Rhoda, you’re hilarious! Love that you shared with us all. I’d probably pick out a pair of sunglasses and now that you mention it I definitely DO need some new undies so I’d get a few pair of those too!
