JUST saw on my Facebook page that WESH news is reporting that Trader Joe's is coming to Winter Park (one of the "Winters" anyway).

Back in Maryland, there was a Trader Joe about 8 blocks from my house. I would only go there once in a great while for some frozen food or their Triple Shot Expresso coffee in a can.

If I wouldn't bother going 8 blocks to Trader Joe, do you think I am going to go 1 or 2 hours to Trader Joe? Quick answer: NO.

$3 now. As to how good it is that is a matter of opinion. We bought a case last December, in Gainesville, and gave away the wine to 12 of our friends and asked their candid opinions. Only one person said he liked it.

I don't go there for the wine. Too many other good things, I never get around to the wine.

I personally don't care if Trader Joe's comes here, but will fight tooth and nail.....to keep out Costco.

Those people have a direct connection to my brain, and have somehow developed the ability to make me purchase copious amounts of items....that I never knew I wanted/needed.

I think Costco should be investigated.....for utilizing illegal mind control equipment.
