The brand new TK Maxx in Bromborough is officially open, with plenty of shoppers visiting the store on the hunt for some bargains, including me!
Known for its 'off-price' form of retail, unlike traditional stores, TK Maxx doesn't generally do promotions or sales and instead offers big brands for lower costs every day. According to the TK Maxx website, their RRPs are obtained from brand owners and suppliers, who must provide evidence of the original price.
A trip to TK Maxx is always a fun one, because you never truly know what you're going to stumble across. Granted, it takes a bit of searching and a bit of an eagle eye, but there really can be some worthwhile bargains on offer.

I visited my new local TK Maxx to see if I could find some high-end products that wouldn't burn a hole in my purse, and it's safe to say, I was pretty successful. As soon as I entered the store I saw the likes of Tom Ford and Clinique on the beauty section, from luxurious lipsticks to summery bronzers. Here's some other bargains to keep your eye out for:
