Same here. I dunno where thomsbrain gets his delicious 99c frozen dinners, but I'd like to hear about it.

Their frozen foods are all generally very good, and usually are not loaded with corn syrup like the normal frozen foods you get at the big stores. I usually eat the spinach lasagna and the mini-pizzas (forget the name). Usually the prices on milk, eggs, etc are cheaper than the big grocery stores, so I will generally buy those there.

the trouffles are like crack.

If you are a charcoal griller try their 100% wood charcoal. It burns hotter, more even, and leaves very little ash.

$0.99 for a 33.8 oz bottle, I buy it by the cartload.

I just got back from trader joes and I ended up with the trader joe's brand unsweetened green tea, which is the same deal (.99 for 33.8 oz). The green tea with orange and bergamot is delicious. :thumbsup:

omg.. I just went to Trader Joe's and picked these up.. So good!

I always get the $0.99 tea, hummus, and some pita chips everytime I go.

umm... trader joe's is known for having very cheap prices; they're definitely cheaper than my local safeway. frozen dinners are no exception.

I'll admit it was a senseless spelling...but colombian coffee beans sure are tasty!

Also same here, I could keep the list going on and on.

 

[SmoochyTX]

I sure wish there was one in my area.

 

[Kerouactivist]

Well of the things I picked up....
I've tried the ribs and the Mango Acai berry juice and they were both fantastic...

the only thing that traders Joes sells cheaper is stuff like milk and chips. Everything else is over priced.

i hate trader joes, all the people in that store are stuck up, and the prices are way too high...meh, to each their own.
