Find the Sheep

There are at least 25 in this picture, taken around 7pm last night.

And just so we’re clear, unlike Dunkin Donuts and McDonald’s last week, Trader Joe’s wasn’t giving anything away last night.

    in the time it took these people to wait, maneuver around the overcrowded aisles where the line to check out is so long that it makes using the last 2 aisles nearly impossible, and then waited on the looong line to check out, they could have taken the train out the queens TJ, shopped, and returned to their east midtown “luxury” apartment.

    I like TJ’s. You just have to have a co-pilot to man the crowd while one person stands in line.

    Some people aren’t tough enough for TJ’s thats all.

    why are you so upset that others want to stand in line. If they want to do it, whats it to all of you?

    Wednesday between 11-1 are the prime TJ shopping time. The NYUers haven’t woken up yet and flooded the place.

    *Red: Great, I’ll keep that in mind next time I’m unemployed and can shop at TJ’s on a Wednesday between 11 and 1.

    What groceries and/or deals are worth waiting just to get INTO a store?! I can’t understand this logic! Even if you save 10 dollars off your grocery bill, is that really worth an HOUR of your time?!

    Chris says:

    Gonz: No, actually, it’s not. That’s sold out of a seperate store two doors down from this one.

    I went to that free McDonalds day. Worst idea ever. Probably because I went to 4 different McD’s to get 4 free sandwiches.
