We were Ralph’s (Kroger) and TJ's shoppers at our former home in SoCal with both just five minutes from us in the same shopping center. We miss them a lot. Costco was a monthly trip if there were items in the monthly savings book that we wanted or needed. That was 15 minutes from home. Maybe we’ll try home delivery with Kroger and Costco.
We shop TJ's occasionally as part of a Disney day trip since we rarely stay at a park for a full day, but back home in SoCal it was our main weekly store, with Ralph’s being just a supplement when needed. We really miss having TJ's close to home.

Our north homes we had 5+ different Costcos, Whole Food TJ,s, Kroger within 15-30 minutes. It a hard adjustment to not have TJs kosher and WFs fresh not processed items, at our fingertips.
80% of our beef, pork and most of our chicken comes from the farm. So our grocery is minimal. We would have Costco & Kroger same day when needed.
Our granddaughter was just visited. She wanted NadaMoo frozen, so we stopped at Publix. Like her Mom she was shocked at Publix prices.
So she scanned to compare Publix with her delivery order. $19.36 more at Publix, (nothing was on sale, but rarely is her food choices) which didn’t surprise either of us.
She is severe lactose intolerant, buys organic, only natural sugar, no processed food. So grocery are not inexpensive for her. She can walk to TJs, WF, from school, Kroger, Costco are same day delivery.
She told me Grandma you will have to move in with me if you had to only shop at this store :$:
