After several hours and a near heart attack I think I have successfully posted the beginnings of a Trader Joe’s and Costco database.  If this thing does not beat me (it may knock me down but it will never beat me!) I will continue adding and building this list.  By far these are my two most visited and favorite spots for Weight Watchers Smart Points options so this is as much for me as it is for you!  I had all my go to foods memorized in Points Plus and then life happened.  WW switched to Smart Points.  Costco food sales reps took out a few faves and added some new ones.  Trader Joe’s added even more yumminess.  So what’s a girl to do?  Start a list!

Preview of the Trader Joe's Database...a work in progress!

Until I figure out a better way to do this the database is housed in the If You Have An Egg…A Weight Watchers Support Group Facebook group under “Files“.  Please…seriously…let me know whether or not it works for you and if you know of an easier or better way.  This is a new path on this fun adventure and let me tell you I need all the help I can get making sure this is easy for me and easy for you.

Lemme know so I can have an excuse to head back to Trader Joe’s again…like I need an excuse right?

    • Awww that’s sweet Amy! I’ve actually had so much fun working in the database today I had to set an alarm so I didn’t forget to go have dinner with my mom!

    • Believe it or not this is fun Amy thanks for your support!

  2. Do you have this database on your blog somewhere or just Facebook? Can you put it on here?

    • Hi April, thanks for asking! Right now it’s only on the Facebook page because I haven’t figured out that technology yet here on the blog. I am working with someone though to see if I can get it into a user friendly form that can be pulled up on mobile devices. It’s a work in progress but I love “researching” at the stores hahaha. Stay tuned and I hope you enjoy the blog!

  3. This is amazing! Is there anyway you can email this database? I’m not on Facebook. Thank you so Much for the motivation!

    • Lisa, I can’t post the database or e-mail it…however, I met with someone today to help me get it in a format for easier sharing. Sit tight…they will start working on that solution soon!
