    Trader Joe's Opening on Lower Greenville, in Plano

    Trader Joe's​Trader Joe's has finally revealed its plans for the Dallas area. Per Gubbins at Pegasus (via the DMN), the first is slated to open this spring at Preston and Park in Plano, and the second at the old Arcadia Theater location on Lower Greenville, which is scheduled to open in the fall.
    Trader Joe's started out in California in the 1950s as a chain of small convenience stores and the chain has since grown to include much larger stores with a mix of basic and hard-to-find foods at "value prices," many under their own label. Each store offers a variety of products; some locally produced.
    Lake Highlands had been lobbying for the store to go there.

    NOOOOOO! One of those locations is WALKING DISTANCE from my house, but we are moving this spring.

    It's like the universe just gave me the middle finger.

        Awesome. They're going to one of the most dangerous intersections in the state.

          No it will be completely out of the way. The other location is about 20 min from work though, but out of the way. Better than nothing though

            Umm, the nearest one to me, opening in February, will be in Naples, FL. It will be the first in the state and will be 3.5 hours drive from me. I'm still going to go probably once every month or two. I am thrilled it's going to be only 3.5 hours away as opposed to 7! That's HALF the distance, and I will gladly drive it.

                  It is far closer than the 5+ hours I have to drive to get to one. I'll take comfort in the fact that I used my TJs bags at the grocery store today and got compliments on my cute bags. (eye-roll)

                  ETA - soooo green with envy.

                    Thanks, Luanne. I'll wait till Feb 10th when the one in Naples opens. Unforch most of the things I would want are super hard to ship and too many in number. Thanks for the offer. Love you.

                      I so didn't mean to start a debate with that one.

                        Don't hate me it just sucks that it would have been close enough to shop there regularly. So close!

                            I just called DH, in the middle of a surgery, to advise him that he is a cruel, horrible person for moving me away from Texas. He said, "Yeah. I know, I know. Why this time?" I said, "Three words: TJs, Lower, Greenville."

                            His response: "oh, no! I'm never going to live THIS one down."
