Grand Opening This Friday
Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the last 12 months, you’re probably pretty excited about Trader Joe’s finally opening in the South Loop. For years, rumors were rife about a store opening here. This Friday is the grand opening and we’re wondering what you’re most excited about. Like Oprah, we have our “favorite things” about Trader Joe’s. They are listed below in no particular order.- Maple syrup—hard to beat the price for pure maple syrup
- Olive oil—again, hard to beat their price on this item, which is often on sale for under $5 a quart!
- Coffee—Joe is a great medium roast, reasonably priced
- Peanut butter—TJ’s creamy salted peanut butter is cheaper than the cheapest store brand from any grocery chain; it’s also the best, in our opinion
- Balsamic vinegar—in the one quart jug is another bargain item that is often on sale and under $4.

So what are you favorite things about Trader Joe’s?
Trader Joe's doesn't have sales.
ReplyDeleteI like the convenience of the pre-cut veggies; especially the frozen bell peppers. Also, veggie chips, red pepper hummus and roasted red pepper soup.
ReplyDeleteThe food is high-quality, well priced, and it will be the closest grocery store to me! I've never had a Trader Joe's close by so I am looking forward to pleasant surprises.
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for pretty packaging!
