Trader Joes in Corvallis?


Why not? Took the drive down to Springfield this morning (close to an hours drive) to my favorite place to shop for groceries and wine... Trader Joes. I, like many others who live in Corvallis have written to TJs to see if we would ever be lucky enough to be able to shop in our own town. No such luck... It seems that the corporate offices feel that Springfield is a reasonable commute for groceries.

With gas prices up, our town growing, our university thriving... Placing a Trader Joes in Corvallis, Oregon would be a fiscally smart move.
What's the best way to go about getting a TJs here? Letter writing campaign? More blogs? A good barter? Common, work with us... and we'll buy lots of your stuff!!

If you build it, they will come!
