The T.J.Maxx Clearance Event happens twice a year — typically in January and then again at the end of June into early August. That means clearance is happening NOW. It’s among the best ways to save at T.J.Maxx (though certainly not the only way) and the closest thing the retailer has to a sale since their merch is priced so low at the start. But the true hero of their clearance is the "Yellow Tag," which shows that an item has reached its absolute lowest price, with savings of up to 75% or more (we spotted sweatpants for 77% off) in stores and online
And good news for T.J.Maxx fans — the Yellow Tags are here!

The T.J.Maxx Yellow Tag Sale is a twice-a-year, multi-week event with massive markdowns, indicating the end of clearance season.
The T.J.Maxx Yellow Tag Sale happens twice a year, with the winter sale typically lasting two weeks and the summer sale extending to a whopping six weeks. It marks the end of the T.J.Maxx clearance season. Shoppers can expect savings of up to 75% or more on a wide range of items both in store and online. We’ve seen $12 men’s tees, $5 slippers, and $15 wine glass sets on clearance.
Red tags mean clearance, and yellow tags mean final clearance.
So what do the red and yellow price tags mean at T.J.Maxx? The red tags indicate a clearance price, while the yellow tags indicate a final clearance price — meaning that it’s the lowest price you’ll see for that item at T.J.Maxx.
The T.J.Maxx Yellow Tags officially hit stores on Jan. 8, 2025.
T.J.Maxx never officially announces when yellow tags hit stores, and we have to be eagle-eyed to spot them. With that said, we've checked EVERY. DAY. and finally spotted them in stores as of Wednesday, Jan 8, just one day earlier than our original prediction date.
Does Marshalls also have a yellow tag sale?
Yes. As a store brand under the TJX parent brand, Marshalls also offers yellow tags in January. HomeGoods does too. As with T.J.Maxx stores, selection will vary, and you can expect to see the yellow tags throughout January, with new additions every day.

What to Know Before You Shop T.J.Maxx Clearance
You have five or so weeks to shop the clearance sale, but you'll only see yellow tags for the last few weeks.
Winter clearance, with the red clearance tags, started Dec, 15, 2024, and will likely run through the end of January. But the clearance tags didn't show up until around the half-way point (Jan. 8). You'll see new ones every day in stores through the end of the month.
Find up to 75% off (or more) online or in stores — but you won't find the yellow tags online.
During the twice-yearly clearance sales at T.J.Maxx, you can shop either online or in stores. If you’re shopping in store, expect to see some clearance signs on aisles with both yellow and red tags in the mix. You'll have to hunt for the yellow tags, and every store will be different. Online, you can shop clearance deals here (you won't see any yellow tag final clearance, though — just the prices).
Get free shipping on orders of $89 or more using code SHIP89.
You’ll get free shipping on your first order when you sign up for T.J.Maxx emails. Otherwise, shipping is free on orders of $89 or more with promo code SHIP89.
