Hidden code on TK Maxx price tags which could save you a lot of cash

TK Maxx has long been known as a place to get quality clothes at a purse-friendly price, and some savvy shoppers say there's a way to get even more bang for your buck. Beauty guru Alex Pavlova, who regularly shares make-up and shopping-related content, recently uploaded a video to TikTok, in which she discussed the often missed codes found on TK Maxx price tags.

According to Alex, there are a handful of money-saving codes printed on the price tags that you need to keep an eye on while shopping at the popular department store chain, which will allow you to get your glam on for even less.

In the video, Alex alleged to know 'what TK Maxx codes actually mean', asking followers to 'thank me later'. The clip shows Alex out shopping at TK Maxx, hunting down specific codes and pointing out what she says they mean.

The TikToker starts off by picking up a product with the number '1' on it, which she says is produced by TK Maxx themselves.

As claimed by Alex, items labelled with the number '2' are 'genuine unsold stock', while those bearing a number '7' are products which have been 'packed away from a previous year'.

The video wraps up with Alex urging her followers to keep their eyes peeled for products labelled with a '2' and '7' if they want to bag themselves the best possible deals.

The clip has clocked up more than 199.2K likes and counting, with many fellow fashionistas vowing to give it a go for themselves.

One impressed follower gasped: "Girl, this might change the game."

Another wrote: "Not me running over to everything I have with a TK Maxx label to read the barcode."

A third person commented: "I work in TK Maxx and didn't know this."

The Mirror has reached out to TK Maxx for comment.
