Just moved into a new spot that is a half block behind a brand new Trader Joe's, and I'm in love.
I fucking hate cooking mostly because I hate the cleaning and dishes afterward, so I eat out quite a bit. I also try to eat fairly healthy (somehow managed to not eat any fast-food in years, yay, go me), so its kind of a wallet-killer. Now that I've found my new friend Joe, he supplies me with all the quick and easy fixins for half the price I usually spend at Safeway/going out. AND the one by me is the flagship store for Colorado, meaning they are the only Joe's store in the state with a full liquor license... so I can satisfy all my liquor, beer, wine, and drunken munchy needs in one stop, a half block away :D
Their frozen section? A lazy bachelor's dream. Eating one of their $1 chicken burritos right now, mhmm... Gonna defrost some $4 Ahi steaks overnight for tomorrow's lunch and hammer that shit with soy sauce and ginger. Goddamn I'm classy.
Their liquor section? Full of the most amazing, cheap shit you can't find anywhere else (in Denver at least).
Suggestions for the uninitiated:
Simpler Times pilsner- $4 a six pack. Great beer from Wisconsin. No, its not a cousin of Milwaukee's Best; it's actually good beer, for less than a dollar a piece. Didn't even know that was possible.
Charles Shaw (2 buck Chuck)- Bitches love this shit, and it doesn't come in a bag, so you can look resourceful, yet sophisticated, en route to getting shitfaced and peeing in her butt.
Safeway can tongue punch my fartbox. Trader Joe's has my heart, forever and always
