The Best Day Of The Week To Go To Trader Joe's, According To Managers
By Crystal Antonace
Trader Joe’s is so successful due to its one-of-a-kind marketing, wide array of in-house products, and unique shopping experience that includes interactive employees, fun signage, and free samples. However, with its rising popularity and small parking lots, you may be curious to know the best day of the week to shop there, in order to avoid the large crowds.
According to Aisle of Shame, the hours between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are usually the most enjoyable times to shop. Despite the fact that Trader Joe’s fruits and vegetables are restocked every day, most of its popular items (including some non-refrigerated foods) often sell out by mid-afternoon.
Conversely, if you want to steer clear when Trader Joe’s is overflowing with eager customers, you’ll want to avoid the store on the weekends. Large crowds and low inventory will make it difficult to peruse the store and take your time exploring what it has to offer that day, so for the most relaxing and bountiful shopping experience, stick to the early hours of weekdays.
