***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***
You know we love a deal. Especially around the holidays when it’s so easy to bleed money. Which is why we’re psyched to have two of our favorite discount stores, T.J. Maxx and Marshalls, here to help us kick off the whole holiday shopping scene by handing over two $50 gift cards that can be spent on gifts, festive seasonal decor, or whatever else tickles your fancy.
We’ve always loved snagging cheap finds for our house at both stores – like the nailhead trimmed ottoman in our bedroom (from T.J. Maxx) and just about every pillow in our den (from Marshalls).
But enough about us. Here’s how you can enter to win one of the two gift cards that are up for grabs:
- PRIZE: A $50 gift card good at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “MAXX ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …let’s talk about holiday shopping lists. What’s on the top of your list for yourself? And what are you most excited to be giving?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 1st at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 48 contiguous United States
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
******************************
And our two very lucky winners (as selected by random.org) are… Anna (who’s got her eye on boots for herself and a globe for her bro) and Kellie C (who’s looking forward to the painting and wainscoting being gifted by her husband) Congrats you two!
Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from T.J. Maxx and Marshalls.

MAXX ME! The top of my list is really the only thing on my list. I really would like a remote starter for my car. It’s tough running outside in 2 degree weather to start the car for my kiddos. The gift(s) I’m most excited to give are the photo books of my kids to my in-laws. They live in Ethiopia, so they love receiving pics of the kids.

Niki S. says
MAXX ME!…
I don’t really have a list for myself. There are always things that would be nice to have but my mood dictates where each item lands. I would like a “package” of classes to the local moksha yoga (hot) but since my husand says I need clothes I think clothes should top my list.
As for what I’m excited to give. I sooo desparately want to get my husband James Taylor concert tickets but they go on sale at the same time I’ll be driving out of town. Not sure how I could possibly call the ticket office with my husband riding shotgun but if I can pull this off I’ll be one happy (giddy) girl!!
Melissa N. says
MAXX ME!!
I am making most of our gifts this year, but the one that I am most excited about giving is the care package I am sending to my best friend and her husband who are in the Peace Corps in Ghana. As for me, I really enjoy receiving holiday cards. It’s nice to know we’re being thought of in this digital age and it’s so much fun getting real mail! :)
Erin D. says
MAXX ME!!! At the top of my list is a Vera Bradley bag. I’ve been wanting one of these for years and am so incensed that they’re super popular now and my grad student salary won’t let me buy one for myself! I’m most excited to give my parents a beautiful locally crafted butcher block and give curbside recycling to my boyfriend!
Jenn Clark says
“MAXX ME!”
