Trader Joe’s coming to Long Island City (LIC)

[Mr.Retired]

Opinion:the big deal about Trader Joe.
I'll give it ........The employees are trained to be extremely polite,
ring a bell to your fancy, absolutely spotless, great presentation,
fresh products and ample parking. One thing you forget. I came there
for a good price which I rarely find. The local butcher ,fish or vegetable
stores have better products for a better cost. I will say that until the mom
and pops are driven out of town Trader Joe is just another big deal over nothing.....

The problem is that the "local butcher and fish" monger HAVE been driven "out of town."
