| - Any time I'm looking to move somewhere, one of the first questions I ask myself is: "Does Trader Joe's have a location nearby?"
Love this store. Do 3/4 of my shopping there, easy. I like the small size. And their liquor/wine/beer price + selection ratio usually can't be beat. Except for this location. Not sure if being in "Mormon-town" Mesa has anything to do with, or not, but the selection is less extensive compared to other Trader Joe's I've been to.
Regardless, I'll never forget this party I was at in LA, years ago, where I met this guy who was a beverage distributor. I was raving about Trader Joes and he just started shaking his head. I asked what's wrong and all he said was "Man, those guys beat me up on price so bad, I won't even deal with them anymore." So there you have it. Trader's Joes beats the stuffing out of the evil distributor middle-man and passes the saving on to you.
Other benefits include helpful staff, inexpensive flesh flowers, and the tasty free sample shack.
