My latest shopping haul:

Pumpkin cranberry crisps which I top with slices of the apricot cherry cranberry goat cheese roll.

Pumpkin cheesecake brownie bar (not sure of the exact name) -- basically a brownie layer topped with pumpkin cheesecake.

Pumpkin spice almond beverage

Apple cider caramels - four in a box for $1.99

Brioche loaf - makes amazing French toast as it's very rich and tender.

Curried Cashew Carrot Dip and Uncured Bratwurst were sold out so will have to look later.

I resisted the pumpkin ice cream for now! Can't wait to see all the new stuff they start rolling out.

We never shop there. We've gone in and browsed a few rimes and here and there grabbed some things that looked interesting, but we didn't ever find a reason to go back.

I may have a piece of pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving but I pretty much walk past all the 'pumpkin spice' this and that.

One of my favorite things that was introduced as a holiday item but they now carry year round is the Chocolate Brooklyn Babka, good stuff!

I like the pumpkin cranberry crisps (and all other similar crisps). The only other thing you mentioned that I've tried was the curried cashew carrot dip, and I was not impressed. I couldn't taste any curry, only carrots, and it was watery. I mixed some with sour cream and it was considerably improved.

My kids like the pumpkln granola bars ("This Pumpkin Walked into a Bar"). Frozen pumpkin cheesecake is good; the pumpkin bread mix is good.

Pumpkin ice cream is usually good, although I'm not sure I've tried the TJs version. I want to try the pumpkin Joe-Joe's, too. My Keurig doesn't recognize their brand, so the one time I bought the pumpkin spice coffee, I had to give it to someone else.

I love TJ's and am probably in there 3-4 times a week. But it's also right across the street; actually the nearest grocery store to me.

I love TJ's and I hate everything that has to do with pumkins other then actual pumpkins to carve into jack o lanterns. This year's pumpkin season has just about got me to stop shopping there at least until spring. You can barely buy anything in the store now that's not pumpkin related

Chruschiki? Those are good. Haven't been to TJs in a while so I haven't seen them there.

Pecan Pie ice cream - it tastes like eating a very cold bite of pecan pie

Not sure if you realize, but most of the "pumpkin spice" products (in general, not just at TJ's) aren't really pumpkin flavored. "Pumpkin spice" contains no pumpkin, but rather refers to the combination of spices that are usually in pumpkin pie (typically cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, and clove)

I do realize that. I hate pumpkins and pumpkin spice
