The 9 Stages Of Going To Homegoods, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls For Every Broke College Girl

In This Article:

Like most other ladies my age, I LOVE a good shopping trip. Do I want to redecorate my room or find some new stationery? Off to Homegoods, I go. Am I feeling like getting a new outfit (or twenty)? Off to check the racks of TJ Maxx and Marshalls. These stores have it all for way less than other stores. If you can't find it at Homegoods, TJ Maxx or Marshalls, it doesn't exist.

Here are the 9 stages every lady has experienced while shopping at Homegoods, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls:

Entering the store

You never really go to these stores with something in particular in mind. It's best (and maybe a little dangerous) to go in with an open mind. You never know what you'll find!

But you end up buying new chinaware, chairs and a table.

"Ooooh! Food!"

While Homegoods, TJ Maxx and Marshalls may not have sales, they do have a great clearance section!

You always seem to find a few extra purchases through the line. And who could forget the bags!

You pull out your TJX Rewards Credit Card and purchase all of your newfound treasures. While these stores may not have sales, the everyday prices are low, so your bill is not even close to what it'd be if you paid full price for anything.

Of course I needed a new notebook, felt letter board and throw pillow!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
