Well, Boulder, actually (shakes fist), but I trust others will follow … #ddtb

Is Trader Joe's finally coming to Colorado? Public records indicate the possibility is very real. Would you forsake all others to shop at Trader Joe's? How far would you drive?

Trader Joe's coming to Colorado, state records show – The Denver Post
Trader Joes is planning to come to Colorado this year, and a source close to the situation said the California grocer is "most likely" coming to Boulders Twenty Ninth Street shopping center.

We’re still trying to figure out were it would fit at 29th Street Mall. There are area’s around the mall that are both empty and big enough.
Not empty for long, I’ll wager. Hope they have good parking.
According to the Denver Business Journal (http://www.bizjournals.com/denver/news/2012/01/18/trader-joes-coming-to-colorado.html) TJ's has signed deals for three locations in Colorado, so presumably we'll have something more in the metro area (at a guess — Downtown / Cherry Creek and Tech Center / Park Meadows areas).
As has been pointed out by a number of people, one regrettable area in all of this is the crazy no-multiple-liquor-licenses restriction in Colorado laws. Which means only a single TJ's will be able to have a wine shop in it. Feh.
We have one here in Ann Arbor that we drop by from time to time. We like it, but it's not a great general purpose super market. We still do the bulk of our shopping at the local Kroger's or Meijer depending on what we're shopping for.
Oh, definitely, I'd never do my major shopping there. But they have some very nice specialty items.
Yeah, the news last night said Boulder, Highlands Ranch and Parker.
@BD: Interesting. I’m surprised nothing more central. Parker is waaaaaay south-east (though growing — good strategically). HR covers, of course, a multitude of areas — hopefully none too far away.
But no Cherry Creek or Downtown love? Well, maybe for Phase 2.
