There are only a couple of TJs in NJ that are allowed to carry booze.
The one near me is on the small side, but still well stocked enough
with their nice brand names of oils, vinegars dried fruits, chocolates
and grains to make me happy. They have begun to bring in a lot more
pre-pack produce of prepared foods, which I can do without, but they
sure do have great prices on orchids.
