"Trip to the grocery store" is a fun way to see how prices vary around the country, the differences between similar offerings at various grocery stores, and a rough way of tracking grocery prices. The questions come from a receipt from a recent trip to the store, and this one is from Trader Joe's in San Francisco. I love TJ's because it usually has much cheaper prices than other mainstream stores in the city and it offers good-quality items. How money are you?

I'm so bad at these because I don't shop at TJs.
13 out of 5.
2No worries mondaymoos — it's just for fun!
3I love TJ's hummus! I should have known how much it costs..
4I second guessed myself on the first one, couldn't decide between the crackers and the broccoli. I did surprisingly well, though, considering I'm really bad about paying attention to prices at the grocery store
5How is their hummas? I've tried Athenos and theirs is pretty good. I don't have a TJ in my hood, so I travel after work on Friday and pick up fruit for the next week and food. Do you have a favorite?
6that's a good price for mozz!
7Damn I sucked and I shop at TJ's! I don't know anything about meat or dairy prices though.
80/5!
9Never heard of Trader Joe's. I didn't realize it was the name of a store.
Haha I just bought the hummus last week!!
10I didn't do too well
115/5 - I do shop at TJ's for a few things, but only the hummus is on my regular TJ's shopping list.
12HOLY COW! I just got 5/5 and I've never stepped foot in or even seen a Trader Joe's IN MY LIFE! (Grew up in KY, now live in Nashville, TN). And that's after getting all of the questions wrong on the first grocery quiz!!!
Good news is though, Nashville is getting Trader Joe's this fall, and I CANNOT WAIT! I will be the first one in the store if possible.
13I've never been to a Trader Joe's either, and I guess my 2/5 shows it! haha And geez, things are so much cheaper here in the midwest!
14I hope we get a Trader Joe's around here soon. They sound so great.
15Wow, I guess too high! I love Trader Joe's. The closest thing to Trader Joe's in the UK is Whole Foods ... or Borough Market but good food in Europe is so expensive.
163/5. Not bad, i need to stop second guessing myself.
17LOL I guess that makes sense since I have never been to a TJ's and I am in Canada.
18I love Trader Joe's! Their frozen food section is amazing.
194 out of 5...not too shabby...I'm chalking up the -1 to sleep deprivation. I'm a devoted Trader Joe's shopper!
20It's sad that I only got 4/5 considering I work in a grocery store, albeit not a Trader Joe's.
21Wow -- I had no idea TJ's was that affordable! Too bad there's not one near me
