The thing to remember about TJ's is their entire inventory is based off the concept their target demo is affluent middle aged people that are single or DINKs/empty nesters. From ready to bake appies, for the cocktail hour with friends, to the two person sized entrees that are their staple, it all makes sense.

I think their demo is bougie, not affluent.

I was being kind. "Special flowers" is how I usually think of their target demo. They like Mini Coopers.

We shop at TJs a couple times a month but mostly because our kids love a few things there that I cannot get at other places. While I don't have a Mini, I am wearing a Patagonia Deep Pile Retro-X fleece while typing this...

I'm wearing a bespoke dress shirt, bespoke suit, bespoke shoes, with my AP RO watch as I type this at work.

I'm not that bougie. I only have a Mini Cooper and a Porsche 718 GTS 4.0. It's not like I have a real PEAK PORSCHE!!! or a Volvo XC 90

@Texasmade hitting the slammer for a few years?

Please... Like I would ever use the funds to pay off a home loan. I'd use the funds to make more tendies.
