I don't like TJ at all.
There is a Whole Foods within 90 seconds from where my daughter works.
She breakfasts there 3 to 5 times a week.
I stop there with her to grab a scone or muffin or two when she asks for Whole Foods for breakfast.
The store is very clean and at 7:30 am the food is of course absolutely fresh and SOOOO tasty.
I have shopped this store a couple of times.
If my 70 year old mind is calling up the numbers properly the shop fee was $7.00 and the remittance $10.00.
Those shops were pleasant in that the food was really good and the staff personnel were on top of their game knowing the product and the store.
The store and parking lot are always clean and appealing in appearance.
The survey took me about 20 minutes or less and I have had no complaints- from me or the MSC.
I would not do TJs simply because of the layout of the store and the products.
And certainly not for the $3.00 fee.
I really can't imagine anything I would want to eat from them that I could purchase for $4.00.
I have met people whom believe shopping at Tj's is a sign of elevated social class.
What a bs turn off!
