I was comparing everything to Aldi.

I saw I these wrap sandwiches which were $5.79.and are $3.79 at Aldi. Greater variety of fillings at Tj’s though.

TJ’s Chinese dumpling prices /quality cannot be beat. Their fried rice cannot be beat, either.

You can always find sweet potato fries at TJ’s but it’s an extreme rarity at Aldi. The quality at TJ’s is very good. For whatever reason, not even ShopRite can sell a quality sweet potato fry for what TJs can.

I’ve tried to make my own palak paneer, but no more. TJ’s is the only place that sells it without rice. When I made it, it took my entire crop of spinach! I said never again because I’ll just buy mine at TJs.
