Is Trader Joes opening in Redding a big deal? I can tell you from my perspective this is a big deal! I know for most of us where transplants from other areas the drive to the nearest Trader Joe was long and you always had to plan trips and diversions so that you could stock up on Trader Joe items.
The anticipation for a Trader Joes in Redding has gone on for a couple of years and every time we visited Chico or Sacramento we would ask "when are you coming to Redding?" For those folks who have never been to a Trader Joe's store it will be hard to explain but after one visit you're hooked!
Fresh vegetables, pate's, organic foods, pasta's, bread's, great coffee's, wine, nuts, jams, syrups, breakfast cereal, Fish and frozen vegetables! These are just a few things on my shopping list and the prices are fabulous!
To put this in perspective for me, the last time I was so excited about the growth of one company was in the early 80's while in Fisherman's Warf in San Francisco, I stopped at a cookie kiosk and purchased a chocolate chip cookie. It was a Mrs. Fields milk chocolate chip cookie with no nuts! My best friend and I would make special trips to San Francisco for the amazing cookies. My best friend and I are both right fighters and a dozen Mrs. Fields cookies were often the bet, I always looked forward to my best friend losing the bet. The rest is history you can buy them in the grocery store.
Trader Joes & Mrs. Fields you know how you impact many people but these are the words of one person who will be a life long fan!
Cheers!
