If you follow any of the RFT coaches on Instagram, you know we LOVE shopping at Trader Joe’s!
Shopping at Trader Joe’s just feels more fun than a regular grocery store! Is it the employees’ Hawaiian shirts? The creative products? Their complete dedication to all-things-pumpkin every Fall?
I mean - who can pick just one thing they love about Trader Joe’s!? NOT US. So, we made a list for you…
“What are your favorites from Trader Joe’s?”
We get this question from clients all the time, so we finally put together a list of our faves!
We polled our STRONGER TOGETHER Training Club members, and all the RFT coaches pitched in to compile a list of things we’re currently buying and loving at TJ’s.
Trader Joe’s has some staple items we’ve been buying for years, but they also have seasonal and limited release products that aren’t available year-round. We’ll do our best to keep this list updated, but keep in mind that availability may vary based on location and seasonal availability.
