T.J. Maxx is planning to open a new store in Lincoln Park, Chicago, in the third quarter of 2026, occupying about 26,000 square feet at 939 W. North Ave., as part of a renovated building owned by Farpoint Development and MCZ Development, adding to the area's vibrant retail scene.
TJ Maxx's parent company, TJX, sees potential benefits from President-elect Donald Trump's proposed tariffs on US imports, as the resulting supply chain disruptions could create opportunities for the discount retailer to acquire designer goods at lower prices. Unlike many retailers, TJX imports a small portion of its merchandise and relies on buying excess stock from brands, allowing it to maintain competitive pricing even if tariffs lead to higher costs for other companies. This strategy contrasts with retailers like Walmart and Lowe's, which may need to raise prices due to increased import costs.
A TJ Maxx customer, Ojedaaa, shared a viral TikTok video showing her disappointment after purchasing what she thought was a $150 vanity mirror, only to discover pieces of plywood in the box at home. The video, with over 1.1 million views, sparked discussion about the likelihood of a previous customer returning the mirror with the wood inside to keep the product while getting a refund. Commenters advised checking purchases before leaving the store, and criticized the store's employees for not verifying returns. Ojedaaa eventually received a full refund after explaining the situation to the store.
