This Trader Joe's in particular is one of my favorites. It's never too crowded except around the holidays, I've never had to wait in line for more than 1 minute (someone always comes around to pull me over), all the cashiers are extra friendly, and the samples in the back keep my belly warm. WARNING THE PARKING will drive you crazy. Come at an odd hour to avoid the extremely stressful experience that is parking here. It's cramped, the spaces were made with ant-sized cars in mind, and you'll often have to wait for a spot by loitering in the middle of the whole lot and blocking people. Coming even a little later in the night will save you the hassle.\n\nTrader Joe's in general: Why must you package all your vegetables? Why do your herbs only come in small, plastic-wrapped bunches? \n\nMy favorites: a bag of four avocados for ~$2.50. Two salmon filets for ~$10.00. $3 wine, \"healthy\" (I'm not really sure, but the ingredients definitely read a little better) frozen food.
