Trader Joe's..... must..... stay..... away!!!!

LOL, thanks to all who told me to go there to get my Greek Yogurt. They had it. But now I have a new problem. I think I am addicted! They have such cool stuff. I went in for the yogurt, and walked out with $28 worth of "stuff".

I was there once before and was NOT impressed, but I think it was due to the fact that the store was very tightly cramped. Well, the one I went to just took over the store next to it and now everything is nice and wide open - no more stuffed in a shoebox feelings.

Thank you and Dang You!

Only $28!! I can rarely get out of there for under $60.

That's never stopped me! I have my trusty debit card.

I buy a lot of cereal there. Plus I usuall pick up 4 bags of the Mandarin Chicken. It's sort of like take-out Chinese for us. Their frozen vegetables seem to be a higher quality than what is in my grocery store. The peas taste better.

I also love their peanut butter cups.

My hubby has one right next to his apartment in VA. We will be up there for the summer. I walked in--and when I entered I was like "ooohhhh--so this is the place they talk about on the DIS".

There is a whole foods across the street and it is funny--b/c Trader Joe's pricing signs almost egg at whole foods--I can't remember the wording--but it just made me laugh b/c it was so complimentary of the competition while saying that they were cheaper.

It was VERY small though--are they all like that??

Yes, they are usually smallish stores in strip shopping centers.

I love Trader Joe's...some of the frozen stuff is great, some isn't so good...but they're great for dried fruits and nuts, and whole grain breads...and organic meat and chicken.

That was one of my fave stores when I lived in CA. There were plenty to shop at there but then I moved to MI & NOT ONE! Although a couple years ago we had one open & now a second one & neither are too far from my house (but wish they were a little closer!)

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that store! They are all like little markets. Wish they were bigger & that there were MORE of them!

HI Mishetta!!!

I am SO addicted to the Trader Joe's they just opened up in Northville. I LOVE their breakfast bars and trail mixes. We get our cereal there all the time now, too!
