Bargain Luxury - AJ's Fine Foods


When I walk into an AJ’s, for the duration of my visit I’m engaged in the ambiance of the luxurious gourmet market. And, sometimes when I shop at AJ’s I only spend 50 cents!

What am I buying?
~ a refreshing refill of my favorite iced herbal tea or pop/soda. AJ’s sells cold (or hot) logo cups for $2.99 and then you get unlimited 50 cent refills. If you need even more incentive to visit AJ’s, tell your children that they get to choose a complimentary cookie from the bakery while you’re there (yes, free cookies for children, too!).

The last time I visited AJ’s with my daughter, Ivy, we sat outside on their patio so that Ivy could eat her cookie and I could sip my iced Blackberry Jasmine Green Tea. We had fun taking pictures of my AJ’s cup (shown here!), laughing and enjoying the atmosphere together. There are lots of ways to get bargain luxuries, mini-celebrations and a sense of abundance into our daily lives. This is just one of them … thanks, AJ’s!

PS –
Yesterday my new banker at Compass, Tracy (a mom), told me that AJ’s makes the BEST macaroni & cheese and this morning my friend & running partner, Tresa (a mom), told me that AJ’s has the BEST apples in stock right now (Honey Crisp).
