My son is on a GFCF diet, and it's one of the places I can find foods for him to eat!

Love Love Love Trader Joes! Did y'all try the Candy Cane Cookies they had? They are the best cookie ever invented! I bought 15 boxes to freeze and eat all year!

I'm all over Trader Joe's. If nothing else, their reusable grocery bags are the best--especially the blue ones with wide fabric handles and circular base. Two buck chuck is a good friend of mine ;) and I love their produce and frozen fruits and veggies--excellent quality for very low prices. When we do eat convenience food they offer very good options at reasonable prices. And the cheese. Ahhh, the cheese.

I always check TJ first for organic/healthier alternatives...they usually undercut WF.

You can't beat their nut/dried fruit prices.

They give my son a balloon, which keeps him happy while I shop.

Whenever I reuse a shopping bag, I get to fill out an entry for a gift certificate - I got a $25 GC a few months ago!

I'd love to try the Two Buck Chuck wines. I live in NY and can't find it in the stores I go to. Where near NYC does a TJ have Two Buck Chuck? Someone told me it's a legal issue in NY, so no NY stores would carry this.

It's the same here in Maryland -- most counties do not allow alcohol to be sold in grocery stores.

Trader Joe's in California sells hard liquor. Man, was I disappointed when I moved up to Washington only to find that they sell beer and wine and that's it! It's against the law to sell hard liquor here because the state sells it.

That being said, 2 buck chuck is 3 buck chuck here because of taxes! :shrug7:

ETA: oops typo

I love Trader Joes!!!! Especially that you can get great snacks or drinks etc with HCFS. I use to go all the time when I lived in California now it takes me an 1 1/2 drive but we make a day of it and go to the museum etc and then shop there.

$3 buck Chuck in Massachusetts now also ! I always bought it just because i liked to say "two buck chuck anyone?" three buck chuck doesn't have the same thrill for some reason !!!
