| 101 | Tonda Brown | PLEASE bring TJ's to west Michigan!! I promise to shop there every week if you do!!! Ü |
| 102 | L Staples | Your market research should show West Michigan as one of the fastest growing areas in the COUNTRY! I've been a fan of TJs for years, but need to make a 3 hour trek across the state to purchase. You will find those of us who live on the west side of the state to be more environmentally conscious and in line with your philosophies. What would it take to put a store here? |
| 103 | Anonymous | Please come to West Michigan!! |
| 104 | Kimberly State | Yes, We Want TRADER JOES! |

| 107 | Douglas Swisher | We've been avid fans of Trader Joes for the last 25 years. We have freezer totes specifically for when ever we travel near Ann Arbor or Royal Oaks. If Trader Joe's came to West Michigan, I would be shopping there on a weekly basis. |
| 108 | Sara Morales | Trader Joe's is God. I discovered the awesomeness that is TJ's in Washington state, and was totally bummed to come back to Holland only to realize I would not be near a Trader Joe's. |

| 110 | Brandie | Please please please, bring a Trader Joe's to Grand Rapids. |

| 114 | Anonymous | I travel across state at least once per month to shop at TJ -- and when I see all the amazing things in the freezer section, I just get SO depressed. PLEASE come to W. Michigan -- believe me, there is a market here for TJs. |
| 115 | melanie laperriere | We're transplanting from Northern California to Western Michigan. The shock will be too great without the comfort of Trader Joe's. I promise to recruit and convert everyone I meet. Please help me help you! |
| 116 | Jeremy Bouma | I am moving from DC to Grand Rapids and and bummed there are no TJ's in West Michigan. What gives? Bring at least one please! |
| 117 | george keeley | Kalamazoo would give you a greater market- it would take in batle creek,South bend, Ind, benton harbor, and also grand rapids. Also you will be able to sell liquor, which is not legal in grand rapids |
| 118 | Anonymous | George, what makes you think liquor sales are illegal in GR? Better tell all the bars and grocers this.... |
| 119 | Janet Cocciarelli | We definitely need a Trader Joe's here. THere is absolutely no competition...no health food stores, no gourmet food stores, no whole foods, etc. You would be it. Please come! Janet Cocciarelli |
| 120 | Rob Forsch | Please please please bring West Michigan a store!!!!!! |

| 123 | mary | Please send a trader Joe's to Grand Rapids! |
| 124 | Jane Patsakos | Please bring a Trader Joe's here. I know there would be a great market for your wonderful store. |

| 126 | Anonymous | Yes please a store in Holland Michigan |
| 127 | Leslie | Ok TJ, here's the deal. I'm in So.Cal now and have been a TJ foody for years. BUT we're retiring back to Grand Rapids, Michigan (our original home base) in 2 years. What do you say TJ? Can we make a deal? How about we go to Grand Rapids together? Going into our "golden years" has had it's bumps but going through them without a Trader Joes would be a major calamity. Check the demographics and you will see what a great fit it would be....You'll love Grand Rapids. Here's hoping to see you in 2009 !!!! |

| 129 | Laurie Diggins | Please please please bring a Trader Joe's to this area. I will shop there at least once a week. Right now I take coolers & freezer bags to the Chicago suburbs once every few months. I would spend a lot more money if there was one closer to me. |
| 130 | Peter Dreyfuss | I really think a TJ in the Midland-Bay City-Saginaw area would thrive far beyond the expections of TJ Management! |
| 131 | Suzanne K Jones | If you locate here I will shop at your store!!! |
| 132 | Anonymous | TJ's in Kalamazoo...would be great. The 'sort of' TJ's here is ridiculously expensive and the employees are not happy like TJ's. I would quit my social work job to work at TJ's. |
| 133 | Donna Keith | I love Trader Joe's! Undoubtably Southwest Michigan can more than support a TJ's in Grand Rapids. I've been driving to Ann Arbor, MI from Kalamazoo just to shop at TJ's. If there was a store in GR, I'd make alot more shopping trips to TJ's. Thank you!!!!! |
| 134 | Melanie Kloian | Hurry already! |
| 135 | silvia sommer | One in Lansing please! |

| 137 | Anonymous | I LOVE Trader Joe's. I just back to MI from the San Francisco Bay area and one of the biggest hurdles in my decision to move to grand rapids was the lack of a Trader Joe's. I would shop there every week! |
| 138 | Mark & Gayle Schaub | We shop at TJ's several times per year, filling our trunk with wine and goodies. Problem is, we have to do it in the Chicago area or in Shorewood, WI. We would be regular customers at a Grand Rapids-area, Trader Joes, preferably on the west side (e.g., Walker) or on the north end. |

| 146 | Anonymous | TJ's is a needed resource for WM's organic food demands. There is little else out there for affordable organic fruits, veggies, dairy, and where else can you find their cheese selection? |
