Tracking Trader Joe's


We have declared a new financial sobriety in our household. Even though I am finally earning money again, we are still in debt and with the economy in the crapper we've got to cut back even more. So I have decided to brave the crazy lines at Trader Joe's Manhattan for some cheap food, particularly now that the farmer's markets have less and less produce.

Looking for some tips on the best time to go, I happened upon this very cool blog called Tracking Trader Joe's. Featuring recipes using TJ products like quesadillas, plus other random Trader Joe news, it's definitely worth checking out.
