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!
I’m hoping for a steam mop to clean our tile floor and giving my hubby a helicopter flying lesson!
Amanda says
MAXX ME!
On the top of my list is finishing out our garage-turned reclaimed living space! We are working on finishing up leveling out our driveway which meant we had to close off entry to the garage (our driveway was *extremely* steep..it needed some leveling out so we could actually park in it!). So the former garage is now another room off our basement – and now the only unfinished part of our basement.
I’m most looking forward to giving presents to my little cousins … especially a cotton candy maker. It turns any hard candy into cotton candy!!
Kat says
MAXX ME! I’m super-excited about all the goods I scored for my city’s social services kids.
Rebecca says
MAXX ME!

I am hoping for a ticket to a football game and I’m also looking forward to buying a concert art print for my boyfriend :) Happy Holidays!
Michele McMahan says
MAXX ME!!! Love these stores. With one daughter’s wedding down (60 days ago), and the 2nd one 260 days away, I could use it on SO many things…OR, I could use it on myself! Who knows!
Lynley says
MAXX ME!! my husband and i are dying for a cuisinart-14-cup-stainless steel-food processor (rolls off the tongue nicely :) we are avid foodies and that would be a Godsend in our kitchen arsenal. i’ve started making homemade cards with scrapbook paper, etc and everybody loves receiving my cards in the mail, so i will be trying to make little ribbon-wrapped packages of notecards for every holiday they can give out :)
p.s. I LOVE THE TREE ART, BAKED GLASS PROJECT! so so creative :)
Deborah says
Maxx Me! Baked goods are my type of gift this year both to give and receive.
Morgan Mayes says
MAXX ME!!
I would really love to have a date night with my husband at Texas de Brazil. We have two kids under two, so a night out would be lovely.
I’m excited about giving ANYthing to my daughter, as this is the first Christmas she’ll be able to really enjoy (she was only 10 months last year). I think we’ll be getting her a book and a fun film like Wall-E or Finding Nemo, but I’m mostly just excited to watch her open the gifts herself and be excited about it.
Emily S says
Maxx ME! I would love some new pillows or cozy throws for my couch as the cold weather sets in.
Courtney says
Maxx Me! I’m actually most excited about giving my sister a rhinestone covered piggy bank. Strange, yes, but it looks really cool. As for me, I’d love a pair of Cole Haan ballet flats!
Lorie Moynihan-Broedel says
Maxx Me!! I’m wishing for some artwork from Etsy, I’ve been emailing the hubby with hints! =)
Michelle F says
MAXX ME!
I am excited to get some new adorable curtains for the family room and I am super excited to give my youngest son his Lego Harry Potter castle and my oldest son his I Pod Touch.
Sarah says
MAXX ME!! MY girls and I have always been a fan of our local TJMAXX. Now the youngest has become a HUGE fan of Marshalls in the windy city. It would be a wonderful extra under the tree.
Britt says
Maxx me! I’m excited to be buying gifts for my 3 month old girl this year. So hard to resist those cute outfits.
Cecelia says
MAXX ME!! Hmmm, for myself I am hoping for a flat screen TV that will fit in my small entertainment center. I am SO excited about giving my mom KNIVES! Her electric knife died last year and turkey carving this year was looking a little dangerous! She also needs (although she doesn’t know it yet) a Santoku knife. HOW is she living without one??!!
Stephanie says

Anna says
I WON!! I can’t believe it.. I enter every give away on here and it finally paid off! I couldn’t be more excited! I’m a student, therefore funds are low and so this TJMaxx card will help so much with giving a few extra special gifts for Christmas! Thank you Sherry, John, Clara, Burger and of course, TJMaxx.
YoungHouseLove says
Congrats Anna! So glad you’ll be putting that gift card to good use!

Jenny says
Is something going on with the site? For the last several days, whenever I click on the “home” button, I keep getting this post but I am seeing on Facebook that you have updated since then. Weird!
YoungHouseLove says
That’s crazy! No idea why that’s happening to you Jenny. We have actually posted quite a few times since this one. It sounds like your computer is having a caching issue (it’s not refreshing something? Or maybe you have bookmarked this post instead of our main site’s home page?). Maybe try restarting your computer or even unlugging/rebooting your modem? Hope it helps!
Is anyone else having this issue? Whenever we click “home” (or the picture in our header), we’re taken to the most recent post.

Kellie says
I WON!!! I can no longer say that I never win anything:)
My husband and I just bought our first home back in April, I’m going have so much fun figuring out what to buy to spruce up our fixer upper! Thank you for doing the giveaways and for all of the DIY advice! We couldn’t have done half of the things we’ve done to this house without your help!
