Tuesday Morning

I love Tuesday morning stores and so I was glad to find this one (have since discovered there is another one in Kirkland).
However, I was not as impressed with this location as I have been with other stores I have been to.
This store is now closing as they have lost their lease (the Office Depot next door is also closing which makes me think that perhaps the land has been sold or is being developed.
As the store is closing there has been some amazing sales, when I first went in it was 40% off and he second time it was 50% off. I got a comforter for only $ 50 which was originally $ 225 in a department store. It was great also to get stocking stuffers for my daughter so inexpensively.
The customer service from the sales staff was not always great, however I guess that when you know you are losing your job it’s hard to keep a positive demeanour!
I would say I would go to this store again, however, given how little stock was left it seems unlikely that I will get a chance!

If you are a long time customer of Tuesday Morning, you already know that the overall quality of the merchandise has gone downhill a lot over the last few years. No longer available are the fine English bone china cups, the imported crystal glassware, quality dinnerware, well made garden furniture and accessories, and many other items. It seems as if the quality of the merchandise has been on a slippery slope along with the economy. I went last week to find a salad bowl. They had only 1. It was made of orange plastic. The selection of dishes and ovenware has been especially hard hit. One category that has expanded is the food isle… which is not a good thing. Still a good place to look for gift bags and throw pillows.

I grew up a few miles from the Tuesday Morning store in my GA hometown so I wasn’t exactly surprised to see discount goods galore in this shop.
By the way this is in a random location next to an Office Depot.
There is a lot of luggage, purses, linens, and kitchenware here. To my utter amazement they even have MICHAEL KORS handbags in their small handbag section — although granted the purse was still like $ 130, I’m just surprised that Tuesday Morning is hip enough to carry such items.
They have a lot of Cuisinart supplies here. I picked up a mini food processor for $ 25. Cuisinart is not terribly cheap — they have it at Sur La Table for example — but some of the prices are okay here. They also have Capresso coffee/​spice grinders too for $ 17.
The only downsides is, this place does feel a little tired/​old. It feels like I’m in this weird mini warehouse. Also some of the decorative items feel kind of kitschy/​old as well.

This has to be one of the biggest Tuesday Mornings I’ve ever been to. It’s almost overwhelming how big it is. Unfortunately they didn’t have what I was looking for so I left empty handed. On a pretty busy corner in the Bellevue Overlake area. Right next to Office Depot. Prices were decent.

If your list includes gift wrap, christmas ornaments, razors, towels, baby clothes, toys, coffee mugs or art for your home, this is the place to go!
They have killer, super low prices and always a different assortment of stuff. You don’t have to dig quite as much here as you do at Ross or Marshalls.
I always come here for cute gift boxes and wrapping paper, kids toys, scrapbooks and shower gel.
I spend too much time in here!

Great place to go and find a name-​brand item at a steal. They have lots of great kitchen and household items. I found a silicone grill brush, that I saw for $ 18.99 at William’s Sonoma, but it was only $ 4.99 at Tuesday Morning.
Be warned however: The little old ladies that work here will plow right through you as they restock their shopping carts full of tchotchkes. They aren’t very polite.
Also, the last time I was here, the bathroom was out of order, which is not cool if you’re pregnant like me.
I stopped by today to buy this adorable Wedgewood brand, Peter Rabbit porcelain piggy bank that I saw last week (only 7.99, and I’m sure it would be about $ 45 or 50 elsewhere!), but the store is «CLOSED for inventory» from ¹⁄₁ until 1÷8÷2011. This annoyed me.

Where does one go after the «Stuff White People”-like target demographic strips the Goodwills, Value Villages and Salvation Armies in a 50 mile radius clean of ugly Christmas sweaters, leaving only irredeemably ugly sweaters in their ironic wake?
Home?
Spokane?
Tuesday Morning.
(Which is in fact a where, not a when.)
Tuesday Morning in concept is where unsold merchandise, fashion, and practicality go to die, creating a veritable semi-​organized mountain of consumerist carrion that buries a few good finds. If you’ve ever wondered where your parents find home décor that was never in style when it was introduced thirty years ago, it’s probably here.
Pricing isn’t particularly cheap, but on the other hand, it’s Bellevue (although looking around one does get a very different vibe than in the downtown core.) Clothing selection is a bit limited but one can find QVC-​eclipsing randomness including:
— suitcases
— cases for last generation iPhones and iPods
— a wine cooler
— Dyson vacuums
— bedding needs
— bulk greeting cards
— impulse purchase off-​brand chocolate wants
— Monster A/​V equipment
— Swiss Army knives designed for golfers
There’s no rhyme or reason besides a distinct lack of first-​hand love that covers the entire store with a grimy film. Despite that vague air of desperation, the third chance Tuesday Morning offers still compels. Like me, you may come here and find what you needed — even if you never knew that you needed it before wandering the aisles.

The idea of this store is that every Tuesday there is new merchandise and that is usually the case. I have bought holiday wrapping paper, a lamp, a comforter and other things too numerous to mention. This is a little like Ross or TJ Maxx without all the clothes. There is some very junky stuff but many good bargains to be had as well.

Bed, Bath and Beyond met Big Lots and they had a funky little baby named Tuesday Morning.
They’ve got a few decent items, and prices are generally good. Most items, however, are too cheap to bother with. It reminds me of Big Lots as in it has the feel of a big white trash dollar store kind of place, but the items being sold are more Bed, Bath and Beyond type products, just Big Lots quality.
It’s a decent store to go to when looking for a household item, but look carefully to make sure its not a dollar store quality piece of crap. On 75% of items you’d probably be better off spending more so you don’t get something that will die in 3 uses. It’s great for that other 25% though.
Shop carefully padawan and may the force be with you.

This place is great if you need some throw pillows or really just anything for your house! If you wait til the weekend it can get pretty picked over though… know why? Don’t worry baby birds, I’ll feed ya.
The new shipments come on Tuesday Mornings; hence the name. :o)
Word to the wise though, spend some time back at the clearance area. I went in there once and found two boxes of German crystal wine glasses of the same exact style (both originally sets of 6, but were both missing only 1 glass) and they were both marked half off! I don’t know why they didn’t combine them, but I walked out the door w/​10 crystal wine glasses for only $ 15!

At the Tuesday Morning near Miramar, I could spend a content couple of hours browsing the crowded shelves. It will take several more hours to browse through the selection at this location. It’s huge!
As with the other location I’ve frequented, this Tuesday Morning is full of home décor items, a few toys, accessory pieces and linens, all heavily discounted.
There’s also a very long aisle as you first enter for seasonal goods. Right now, it’s all ornaments and Santa figures, but nice ones. I saw some gorgeous glass ornaments that would make great gifts!
The selection of sheets and towels seems somewhat small, as does the number of luggage pieces. Still, it’s a big store and I know I’ll be back for many more hours someday soon!
