Missing Trader Joe’s

Filed under: General,New Zealand — wm @ 9:28 pm

We had described Trader Joe’s to several people, and they said we should check out Moore Wilson’s. Well, not quite. Sigh, there really isn’t any place like Trader Joes. It is probably the only store I really miss here in NZ.

Moore Wilson does have quite a few interesting things, but they are more like Costco in that they cater to the wholesale trade. They do have many things that Trader Joe’s has, like wine, cheese, dried fruit, nuts, orange juice, etc. But many things you have to buy in huge quantities (like Costco).

I went back to Moore Wilson’s today, after my first visit yesterday, and I found more interesting stuff, so I’m feeling a little better about them. But they still aren’t Trader Joes.
