Trader D'ohs



Spotted at the Trader Joe’s: A note to workers warning them of potential LAPD stings around town.

Seems a 17-year-old girl walked into the Chatsworth Trader Joe’s, managed to buy a bottle of wine without getting carded, and walked out.

Turns out it was part of an LAPD sting operation. As soon as the teen walked out the door, LAPD walked in. They fined the Chatsworth store $1,500, and also slapped the clerk who rang up the girl with a separate $1,500 fine.

$1,500? That’s 753 bottles of Two-Buck Chuck. Yikes. No wonder why I've been carded lately, even with the growing number of greys in my goatee, and the 13-month-old in my arms.
