Yep... I guess since they were bought out by Liz Claiborne they are "cheap" enough to be sold to stores like TJ Maxx and Marshalls. What do you girls think? Is this a good thing or a bad thing? I think its a bad thing because now Juicy doesn't seem to be as nice a product anymore.

I think Juicy is the same product it always was. My store had been getting Juicy for at least 3 years. I think it is a good thing that some of it has landed @ TJ Maxx. From what I have noticed at my local store it is the velour and tweed lines which I think are targeted at young girls who are usually on a budget.
After Christmas my store got a ton of new handbags from Cynthia Rowley, Juicy Couture, TONS of signature Michael Kors and a few of his leather bags. I wish that they had a bag that I wanted...I love to get a good bargain!!

Yeah, they were mostly the velour ones that they had. Oh... I did see a pink leather Fluffy though. I like getting good deals too... but designers just don't seem the same once they allow the sales of their overstock like that. Maybe its just me.

I know what you mean. There is this outlet store here that had Juicy clothing at like 70% off a couple of years ago. It was pretty cool I was able to snatch up some pretty good deals. After that I do not want to pay full price for Juicy for fear that I might find it cheaper there or at Tj Maxx.

TJMaxx offers some really good prices though. The company I used to work for - we had about 2 million in overstock and they called up and were like "yep... we will take it all". While this did feel as if it was a poor reflection on the company (which I later left) - it was definitely a tool that saved our butts from having a GAJILLION jackets/shirts/pants/skirts. It also helped us take that money from TJMaxx to enhance our collection for the next year and hopefully make it more successful.
I like to get a deal on anything, lol. But the TJ Maxx near me hasn't had any, but then I haven't been there for a while. They always have Michael Kors, some Dooney, and Baby Phat ().

I had never been to TJMAXX but when i was living in Tennessee i worked there for a while and they had a couple of nice things here and there. They didnt have much Juicy bags but they had alot of ralph lauren, liz claiborne, dooney, coach... people there wouldnt leave them on the racks they would snatch them up as soon as they came out the back room. i guess there are some good deals.
ive seen juicy clothing at marshalls.. like tshirts and cardigans.. it was $80.. not too bad.. havent seen any purses there tho.. i like marshalls for shoes!
