I went to the new Trader Joe's this afternoon

I had some extra time on my way to the gym and I happened to be passing the very location of the new Trader Joe's store in this area so I decided to stop in and check it out. It was certainly busy but not insanely crazy. Navigating through the aisles was manageable and I didn't have to wait long at all to check out.
I didn't NEED anything per se but I did want to pick up a few things of theirs that I like and that might perk up my appetite. Off the top of my head I bought: fresh raspberries, fresh New England Clam Chowder, Tomato and Feta soup, spinach tortellini, Kerrygold butter, frozen fettuccine alfredo, mushroom and truffle flatbreads, frozen hash brown patties, canned cat food, and their Tea Tree Tingle body wash. I think that is everything. None of it is particularly healthy except for the raspberries but I can't 'worry about that these days. I just need to be able to eat and keep it down.
I was happy to spend only $50. Usually I drop at least double that amount and often more during a TJ visit. I was also happy to see that the location is right on my way to the gym so I will pass it multiple times per week. That is very convenient. . . and a little dangerous! ![](/Content/images/emotes/lol.gif)

You did good for $50. It is good that it is in a convenient location for you.

We don't have a Trader Joe's in our town, I am not sure where the closest one is. I will look that up.

We don't have a Trader Joe's or a Whole Foods in our area. You're right, it is dangerous to shop there! ![](/Content/images/emotes/happy.gif)
