Chances are that if you've been to Trader Joe's, you're already a fan. Shopping hacks at a place that doesn't even have a frequent shopper card may seem unusual, but there are some tips and tricks to save you time and money. Read this before shopping at Trader Joe's again. One of the best unknown perks of Trader Joe's is its samples policy. You might have your standby products that you get every time you visit the store, but Trader Joe's comes out with new products all the time. If you're dairy-free and wondering if the Turmeric Ginger Coconut Beverage will suit your taste buds, or you're feeling on the fence about Bloody Mary Salsa, ask an employee for a sample. You can try it before you buy it.
PopSugar points out that there are some exceptions to this amazing policy. They're not going to let you get sick by sampling raw food, and you wouldn't be able to tell if a frozen food is worth it without heating it up. You won't get to try any of the alcoholic products either, so stick to asking for samples of ready-to-eat foods like boxed snacks, jars of jam, or cheese.
