TK Maxx

With more than 240 stores in the UK and Ireland, TK Maxx is clearly well-frequented by shoppers looking for designer bargains and affordable fashion. One of its most recent openings, TK Maxx on Charing Cross Road, is routinely packed with men and women rummaging through stuffed rails, or scouring the substantial shoe floor for discounted shoes and trainers. Try to leave plenty of time if you're on the hunt for a good deal, as it can take a while to find something worth taking to the till. There are plenty of departments to tackle too, including menswear, womenswear, underwear, handbags, kidswear and a brilliant homewares section, as well as shoes, sports clobber and accessories.
