  150. Kristina

    I know this is an ingredient for “insta-crazy” — but I’ve told my boyfriend I’m not sure I can relocate anywhere without a Trader Joe’s. There are a quite a few things I have not loved, but for the most part, its my favorite store and definitely the “most favorite.” An entertaining place to shop, and I’ve never had an experience that wasn’t friendly in every way — right down to “open it now and try it, you’ll like it” from the employees.

    Plus — Aloha! My family lives on the Big Island in Hawaii so I’m always surprised you find so many interesting things to try, yourself, in the Islands, and it gives my mother hope that she can occasionally find the interesting things at grocery stores that we find here, too!

  151. Kristina

    “Most interesting” I meant — and of course — thank you for such a generous gift opportunity! Aloha, Merry Christmas.

  152. Tonya Lewis

    Love Trader Joe’s ! Merry Christmas!!

  153. Craig L.
