Yes, the pumpkin butter has been a fav for several years. Don't recall seeing the BODY butter before-is this new?

I didn't see the pumpkin BODY butter last year when our TJs first opened.

The summer coconut version had coconut oil, shea butter & vitamin E. The Pumpkin body butter is made with coconut oil, shea butter and pumpkin seed oil. The pumpkin scent is very fresh, subtle and natural.

Haven't tried TJ's body butter yet, but do love the lotion in the pump bottle. Can't remember the name-maybe Midnight Summer? Has a soft fragrance, emoliient-not greasy and it's in a white pump bottle perfect for kitchen or bathroom to apply to hands.

Re: Trader Joe's-New/Fall Seasonal Items!!!

With everything pumpkin listed here, just wanted to add pumpkin oatmeaI and croissants. I love when they have seasonal items, just adds a little change up to the same ole. Just finished the kringle yesterday. It was a little sweet but delicious. My list for TJ's just seems to get longer.

I got that too...I scraped off about half the frosting...otherwise it was too sweet for me.

This is one pumpkin item I won't be getting again...but it IS tasty!

Picked up the pumpkin Body butter last week. It was on the regular shelf next to the Coconut one. $5.99 (coconut is $4.99). Haven't used it yet, on last drop of BB Beach. The TJ worker said it smells like a candle (?)

I LOVE the Josie Maran body butters. But they are $35 each vs. $5.99 for the TJ Pumpkin Butter!

The TJ version is heavier - but I find it's perfect for knees, elbows and feet. The price is fantastic for the quality of the product, IMO.

I just bought 2, plus the pumpkin oatmeal and pumpkin croissants. Yowza! Just ate a piece of the kringle with my pumpkin spice coffee. I am in heaven.

BTW, since they were 6.99 each, I could have bought 5 for $35 and QVC charges $39 for two, I know they add in s&H, but c'mon. TJ's has to get them shipped from Wisconsin to their stores nationwide and still keep the price at 6.99, why is QVC's price so much higher?

I had NO IDEA the TJ kringles come from the same place as QVC's. I just looked at the label, we have ordered from them directly in the past.

WOW...what a GREAT deal at TJs!!! $14 for 2 vs. $39.

I think TJs all butter frozen croissants are similar to QVC's and Williams Sonoma's version too...at a GREAT savings.
