Joe is Comming....Joe is Coming.......

Joe is Coming.....

Made you look. :) 

Being from California, I am a HUGE fan of Trader Joe's market.  They have great product and a great atmosphere.  Each and every-time I go home to California, I end up in one of their stores.  No, not for $2 Chuck, (although that is not bad) They have extremely high quality food. 

When I am back home it is nothing for my aunt, uncle and I do hit Trader Joe's for some quick snacks, head to the beach and have a picnic.  They have items specific to them, and my family always says, "why don't you just get it at Trader Joe's back home", to which I respond, ummmm we don't have one in Colorado. 

Well, that is ending. 

It Came across the news wires last night that Trader Joe's has applied with the State of Colorado to do business here in the Centennial state.  Awesome.  Sounds like 3 in the Denver Metro area, and one in Boulder.  Great move.  I feel that Colorado will embrace this store with open arms!  And, by the look of what I am seeing on posts and likes on Facebook, I am not alone. 

I have heard the argument that we don't need a Trader Joe's when we have Sprouts and Whole Foods in Colorado. 

 I beg to differ. 

Variety is always good and competition is even better. If this will keep not only Sprouts and Whole foods on top of their game, but also challenge the big dogs, Safeway, King Soopers and Albertsons, not to mention Super Walmart and Super Target to provide better offerings to all, this is a great thing. 

I am so looking forward to at least having the opportunity to get into a Trader Joe's here in Colorado. 

It's about time!
