Why does TJ Maxx have the right to take 15 dollars of your money if you out clothes on Layaway if your just 1 or 2 days late picking up your layaway items? And, on top of that they take the clothes and put it back storeroom floor and sell i

Yes Mr Guy is right on the money. It sucks true but it's used as a deterrent for non compliance.

Not sure, never have used that system

It sounds like the $15 was your non-refundable 10% you put down on these items to take advantage of their lay away program. You stated you were late picking these items up, this means you violated the 30 day policy by not fully paying for these items within the agreed time. Therefore, you do not get your non refundable money back and you don't get the clothes because you never finished paying for them. They put the items back on the shelf to sell because the clothes are still new and TJ Maxx still owns them. So of course they would try to sell them. I hope this answers your questions.
