Posted by Joe on January 21st, 2009

We have confirmed that all TJX stores nationwide, including TJ Maxx, Marshalls, The Maxx, A.J. Wright and HomeGoods, will be holding a 15% discount sale tomorrow Thursday January 22, 2009. The sale is part of a customer good will effort following a massive data breach by the company that exposed millions of customer records to hackers.

The 15% discount sale will be open to any shoppers, not just those consumers that were potentially impacted by the breach. TJX will also honor any other discounts on top of the 15% (although this does not include employee discounts). TJX has previously stated that all stores will have extended hours between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m for the special sale day.
