The Other Two Buck Chuck


Trader Joes in Redding had this label over their $1.99/lb hamburger. Get it? Two dollars per pound = two bucks for ground chuck. These people are good.

Regular Trader Joe shoppers know that "Two Buck Chuck" is the Charles Shaw wine which they sell for $1.99 so this play on words is cute and fits right in with the whole store's theme.

This is not a place one goes to for dish soap ___ I tried just to be sure and no luck. Nor mundane margarines. It's more a shopping experience where there is huge selection of good stuff at good prices. Popular lines and each pricing, not per pound.

I inquired if Weed was in their expansion plans but the manager just chuckled. Maybe he thought I meant the product.
