Where I just moved from in Richmond VA, we had both stores Trader Joe's and Fresh Market. I have to admit I hardly ever look at prices when I shop, I feel as far as food if I like it and want it, I buy it. But, the big difference between those 2 stores is the price. Trader Joe's prices are a lot less then Fresh Market and Charles Shaw(2 buck chuck in California) wine, which is their own brand is excellent wine. With that said, I am going to pour myself a glass of wine!
Fresh Market is more like Whole Foods, but I would describe T.J. as bargin gourmet. We buy their cheese, nuts, chocolate, coffee, and eggs here in MD. Love the quality and prices. I don't know about distribution problems since there is an Aldis near TV. Aldis is owned by the same group that owns Trader Joe's.
