I think that depends on the TJs you go to. Mine is incredibly efficient.

Seriously. Every single TJs I have ever been to. I think it is because they often add a TJs to an already established shopping center (even the new one in North Potomac - they just built a brand new TJs into a shopping center that was already there) rather than using the TJs as the anchor... and they don't add parking when they do it. The city TJs are even worse - they build an underground garage, but getting in and out of the garage is such a nightmare that I avoid those stores at all costs.

I usually walk to metro to a city TJ. Would never want to drive there.

Where can I ask for the French Onion Mac N' Cheese to be made a permanent item?

Yes, I have 8 boxes in my freezer right now.

fyi... a Trader Joe's in MA is the first in the company's history, to vote to form a union. Other stores have votes planned. The company reallllyyyyyyy fought against it, with some majorly shady and likely illegal moves.

some background info...
