Trader Joe’s entrance queue

March 30, 2020

A line of people standing outside of a grocery store.

I hadn’t been out of my house in two weeks. When I finally went grocery shopping, I found shopping a whole new experience. To control how many people were in the store at one time, Trader Joe’s limited entrance to the store. They also helped people remember to stay spaced sufficiently apart by marking the sidewalk with blue tape. Since all shoppers were in the same boat, we all kept our distance once inside the store, too.
