I love going when it first opens too! In NYC by 4-5pm you literally have to shop while standing in line since the line stretches through the store. I cannot deal with that lol
(With living in Canada, Trader Joe's is like a Disneyland to us when visit the US. I could definitely appreciate the desire to have a ritual like that there)
I love this ritual that you’ve incorporated so much! TJ’s is the perfect spot to be a regular, I’m becoming a reg at my local TJ’s since it’s right across from my work! It’s so fun to bond with the cashiers over random things everyone is always so friendly, always makes my day! Also their pumpkin bread mix is elite!
oh hey neighbor! haha i go to this trader joe’s a lot!
really?? amazing!

My nightmare too!
There's such a presence of peace about this.

Yes! Also, very cool to hear that you enjoy coming to Trader Joe’s when you’re stateside!
I’m also an early morning TJs kind of guy. I go typically during the week, and it’s basically empty and love it
Smart to do this! Also love that you also do early am shopping
It feels like I have the store to myself. Like those early pandemic days where they only let a few people in at a time
I love going to TJ's when it first opens - it's so therapeutic so I get it.
Great minds think alike!

Yes!! Love that you're doing this too and don't mind me because I am adding the pumpkin bread mix to my list for this week!
