I know it isn't Two Buck Chuck anymore but I was thinking it was still at least Three or Four Buck Chuck...
It was never Two Buck Chuck anywhere but in California, where wine is a powerful lobby and laws are different. TJ's there can be wholesaler and retailer, cutting out one of the three traditional "tiers" of alcohol distribution. It chose to pass the savings along to the customer and sold Charles Shaw wines at its wholesale cost. That's not legal in the other 49 states, where the distributors get their "vig."
