Do they really need help concocting new tangents, lol? Um, no. 
I asked today, it’s only the mango candle that has a problem.

Better news.
Other than the rock bottom wines, I don’t think TJs has good beer, wine and spirits prices. Grocery Outlet, same story, except EVERYTHING alcoholic there is overpriced.
Might depend where you’re located.

I’ve had a few nice wines from TJs.
Sure, and maybe what other seller choices you have. Where I am, TJs is not an alcohol bargain except for the low-low wines.
Oh, yeah, don’t get me wrong. TJs curates its wines just fine. Probably better than do the conventional grocery and beverage superstores.
