Clairemont still waits for Trader Joe's
I worked in the IT department of Costco for several years. Things I learned are they will never have a "10 items or less lane." There's a lot of science in retail site location analysis. Costco doesn't want a huge parking lot either. Parking is an expense tied to the buildings. If you want a Home Depot sized parking lot you will pay for it in the square footage rate. If you want something bad enough at Trader Joe's or Costco, you'll go. You might just go at non-rush times like at opening or before closing to avoid the crazy crowds.— February 24, 2019 10:06 a.m.
Clairemont still waits for Trader Joe's
Trader Joe’s real estate agent: “How’s the parking lot?” Land owner: “Terrible.” Real estate agent: “Great, we’ll take it.” Building smaller stores with small parking lots is part of the Trader Joe’s business model, it seems, a way to keep costs down and pass the savings on to customers. According to several published reports, TJ’s small footprint — stores and parking lots — translates into to cheaper prices for consumers. “Trader Joe’s sells twice as much per square foot as Whole Foods,” the investment firm JLL reports. “Trader Joe’s sells a whopping $1,734 per square foot…In comparison, Whole Foods sells $930 per square foot.”— February 24, 2019 8:06 a.m.
South Park woman's anti-scooter crusade
Just ban them. They are a public safety hazard and attractive nuisance. They are adding wait time to emergency rooms, poaching public property, not creating any meaningful employment with the exception of the "venture capital" and bankers who will cash in with an IPO and then desert their shareholders. Wherever the Ofo bikes went, these scooters need to follow.— February 11, 2019 6:35 p.m.

South Park woman's anti-scooter crusade
Even less exercise for our society. Ride instead of walk or peddle. More injuries in the short term, more heart disease and diabetes in the long term.— February 7, 2019 7:37 a.m.
Will 13 Point Brewing make Lemon Grove the new La Mesa?
Right next door is Chef John's Fish & Chips. I think if they let customers bring over fish & chips to eat with their beer it would be fantastic. Chef John's makes some of the best English style fish & chips in the county.— February 6, 2019 5:58 p.m.
Oceanside police confiscate fish thumper
Seems like tire knocker could be used for thumping something else. Probably should have kept it in the trunk with the other weapons. This story makes me wonder what happens to people with a Maglite? Those heavy long aluminum flashlights?— February 6, 2019 8:57 a.m.
