If you listened to my podcast T,J. Maxx: You Never Know What Goodies You’ll Find There on Kathleen’s Korner then you will know how much my husband and I love finding different candies and such from Europe in their gourmet aisle. If you haven’t heard that podcast then if you would like you can listen to it after you read this blog. Why do both? Why not?

As I said in my podcast we love to go to T.J. Maxx. We love going there so much that we actually went just the other day and bought some shampoo, conditioner, a pair of pajamas, and the reason for this particular blog, we bought some drink mix flavors along with a new coffee syrup flavor. Before I go any further I will let you know that T.J. Maxx does also sell kitchen needs, shoes, pocketbooks, socks, skincare products, and many other things.

We personally love buying espresso for our Nespresso machine when we can find it there. We absolutely LOVE buying truffle type filled candies from Italy that come in different flavors. My favorite is dark chocolate espresso filled with the cappuccino filled coming in at a close second. We love buying different flavors of coffee syrups. We love buying different flavors for drink mixes like Pina Coladas and we love buying different types of food and candies. We love buying their chocolate coconut macaroons because they are peanut-free and I can eat them. We love it when we find hard lemon candies from Italy. My husband also likes the orange ones. On our first trip to Italy, we came across these and since we can’t go back any time soon we like to buy them at T.J. Maxx whenever we see them there.

I would also like to point out that Marshalls is owned by the same people and you can generally find the same stuff at Marshalls as well. I guess for us it depends on which store we happen to be closest to when we are out and about. And the prices are pretty good! At least to us they are.
