12/6/2006 6:46:38 PM

went today.........they didnt have one of the things i wanted in stock


They did take my name and number and said they would call when they restocked the shelves.


now THAT is customer service

12/6/2006 7:55:39 PM

we went today.... i found the a lot of the produce too soft and moldy... no one spoke to us... and they just seemed to keep getting in the way....

i don't think we will be going back

12/6/2006 8:39:15 PM

No one spoke to you?

The wine there is fking awesome. And, the chips are great. I didn't see any ultra ripe looking fruit when I went.

12/7/2006 10:44:53 PM

this is my favorite store....not for all food, but for uncommon food that normally costs an assload since its uncommon...wine is great

12/8/2006 12:30:57 AM

^^nope.

oh, and we bought some muffins... had one this morning and after 1 bite had to throw it away... ugh

12/8/2006 1:08:20 AM

does trader joe's have whole oats??

12/8/2006 1:18:09 AM

I don't know about that, but I just ate a bowl of Trader Joe's brnd oatmeal (blueberry) and it tasted like ASSHOLES. I'm trhwoing that shit away

12/8/2006 1:52:00 AM

you know you can bring it back and get 200% of your purchase price back right?

12/9/2006 1:12:22 PM

I don't know about the hot ciii rals, but the rest of their products are pretty damn good.

They even deck you with a refund if you bring it back, and so you don't feel like a dick, you can use the money to buy "SOMETHING ELSE"

Who knew, life's a gamble?

The Olive oil & Charles Xavier red wine is fking win, and all their beer, I'm convinced, is another brand repackaged.

12/9/2006 2:16:59 PM

Joe-O's: fucking TERRIBLE.
Blueberry Oatmeal: FUCKING. TERRIBLE.
Frozen BBQ Chicken: FUCKING. AMAZING.

12/16/2006 1:10:34 PM

If you go there with your shopping list, you'll leave with about 3 things you were looking for, and about 25 things that looked so good you had to buy them, but that you didn't know existed before you got there.

12/16/2006 10:07:19 PM

MOTHER FUCKERS NO MORE PEPPERMINT BARK, THERE WILL BE MURDER

12/17/2006 5:41:14 PM

1/5/2007 12:26:11 AM

i love this fucking place

i'm eating trader joes chips and salsa right now

mmmmmmmmmm

1/5/2007 12:35:22 AM

additional reports

Orange Chicken, Chicken Chimichangas, Chicken and Rice Burritos, Spinach Lasagna and bagels are good

Most cheeses blow, especially sharp cheddar

1/5/2007 12:38:34 AM

and the Peanut butter flavored Puffins cereal is great

1/5/2007 12:39:32 AM

I love Trader Joes, that is the ONE thing I miss about living in Los Angeles...our house is in Cary, so when they put one here, I was like YES! Now all we need is a few more night clubs and more traffic, and my life is back to normal.

1/5/2007 12:39:42 AM

^^^nice

i just bought the chicken/rice/bean burritos today

lunch for tomorrow





[Edited on January 5, 2007 at 12:42 AM. Reason : and i bought some bagels]

1/5/2007 12:41:52 AM

Went for the first time today. We lasted about 6 minutes before leaving. The lines were almost in the middle of the store and everyone was really pushy.

Though their wine selection did look nice. Not a bad selection of candy as well.

1/28/2007 7:19:13 PM

i went about a week ago. wasn't that impressed. probably will never make a special trip just to go back.

[Edited on January 28, 2007 at 7:55 PM. Reason : ,]

1/28/2007 7:55:23 PM

I went a week or so ago and was completely underwhelmed by this joint.

Beer and wine selection was cool, and I picked up some Almond Clusters cereal that is pretty tasty. But I'll go ahead with Whole Foods and pay a little more for the bigger selection of stuff.

1/28/2007 8:17:19 PM

until they get the cheddar horseradish dip i want, i've got no reason to go there

1/28/2007 10:37:53 PM

TypeA is a fucking idiot

1/29/2007 5:15:34 PM

their foods are amazing

1/29/2007 11:33:12 PM

SUP DAWG!

1/29/2007 11:39:47 PM

yea cheez curd thats whassup representin my cheez boys 919 motherfucka holla

1/29/2007 11:46:11 PM

dropped by last night and they do indeed have the cheese dip i desire

haven't had any from this particular store, but their beers are decent conidering that they're ~$5 a six

the apple-maple chicken sausage was surprisingly very good

final judgement will be made when i try this TJ vodka sauce and pasta

I went today at noon - I felt claustrophobic and had to get out fast - but I did note that their hummus is cheaper than HT by $1, their Kashi cereal prices are lower than HT & Food Lion's sale prices, etc.

My cashier said it's madness at all times of the day - people are coming in from Charlotte, from southern VA, and from South Carolina...he said part of it's the prices & part of it's the cult following that place instills in customers. I'd like to chat with the folks coming in from Charlotte to save $1 on their hummus...

2/10/2007 7:12:22 PM

^^ lol

i would have thought you would be way too pseudo-pretentious for this yuppie dumpster

2/10/2007 8:41:50 PM

I've heard of people going up there from wilmington

2/10/2007 9:31:21 PM

all these people travelling from more than an hour away seems kinda ridiculous

2/10/2007 9:38:04 PM

ppl are strange

2/10/2007 11:16:44 PM

mmmm, this TJ chicken quesadilla is delicious

2/11/2007 12:58:43 PM

How long before the two new TJ's open in Charlotte?

2/11/2007 2:03:15 PM

i went there yesterday (in cary) and it sucked, i will not go again

2/11/2007 3:46:39 PM

your car sucks

2/11/2007 4:03:45 PM

I think that place kind of sucks. It's a small store and a small selection with a ton of people in it. Yes, some things seem cheaper, but not worth the trip over there, nor still having to go to another grocery store afterward to get the rest of the things you need. They did have a good and cheap wine selection though.

2/11/2007 7:33:34 PM

Trader Joes is coming to N Raleigh next year



unfortunately the Chapel hell TJs comes first

3/21/2007 2:19:33 PM

the trader joe's brand amber beer is good (and cheap!)
