Posted by murderous.intention on January 28, 2009

While out and about today my DS had one of his little gassy spells, I nursed him for a bit and then there was the notorious rumbling and explosion noise that signals he has had a “movement”.  Well it moved right out of his diaper and all over the place – DH was in [...]

Posted by murderous.intention on December 26, 2008

If you need shirts, skirts, jackets or baby clothes – you NEED to get over to Steve & Barry’s at the Fox Valley Mall.  They are out of business on Sunday and every T Shirt is $0.79, skirts $0.50, Jerseys $1.89 and more.  I got sterling earrings for $0.20 and for $60 I bought about [...]

Love the sharp lines of stainless steel? Ever seen a stainless steel wallet?  Well I have an extra one to giveaway so here is my second contest. There is no relation between me and Stewart Stand, but the wallets are unique, conversation starters that make awesome gifts – I know personally.

Posted by murderous.intention on December 14, 2008

Route 59 is now a burgeoning shopping corridor, and right down Rt 59 they have now opened another TJMaxx.  Tons of Sajen Jewelry, D&B Bags, and Coach Shoes.  I also found some interesting pieces like women’s snowboarding boots, they have a far better clearance section in housewares – and they had the Thro Robe I [...]

Posted by murderous.intention on December 13, 2008

DH and I got to talking the other day about a pair of underwear I had bought him in Chicago at Beatnik’s – if you have never been there, you should go.  Especially if you are a person who needs some large sized high heeled boots, shirts with awesome sayings (I bought a T with [...]

title pic Oak Brook TJMaxx Saves the Day Again

Posted by Christopher.Kusek on December 12, 2008

Again, OB TJMaXX saved the day.  Stopped by there because DH husband was in dire need of jeans.  The man is a mammoth and really can’t find jeans anywhere at over six and half feet tall.  He picked up two pairs of jeans on clearance for $12 each, and we even let DS get a [...]

title pic Fill Your Closet with Condoms

Posted by Christopher.Kusek on

I fully endorse safe sex, and condom use for consenting adults, but Condom Clothing is going too far.  Actually, I assume these designers used new condoms in order to guarantee the colors they wanted – too far is the recycling of used condoms to make Hair Ties, etc. sold in China.  I love the music [...]

Posted by murderous.intention on December 6, 2008

My tour of TJMaxx would not be complete without discussing Oak Brook. It is located next to the Nordstrom Rack which may explain why there is always an abundance of Coach, Dooney & Bourke, Juicy and other higher end purses on their racks. In fact I bought my favorite pink soft fabric Juicy Couture purse [...]

Posted by murderous.intention on

Well, I was desperate to find my MIL something for her birthday on Thanksgiving – that’s her B’day not the day I went shopping.  So I hit the Wheaton TJMaxx.  They have just undergone a remodel, new signs and shelves, higher prices it seems.  What they have done that I can appreciate is organize their [...]

title pic Target is right on Target for Savings

Posted by murderous.intention on

Yes, again I am not impressed by the local Bolingbrook Target so while I was out the other day in Oswego I stopped at Target. Again, walked away with some great deals.

Hubby got 2 shirts for $1.78 each with tax $5.05

I couldn’t find much because I was tired and hungry, but there were some great [...]
