Fred Meyer is a pioneer of one-stop shopping, combining a grocery supermarket with a drugstore, clothing, home decor, home improvement, garden, electronics, and more under one roof. Many shop there for groceries almost exclusively, noting the produce is always fresh and restocked, the store is clean, and prices are very competitive. The deli offers fresh salads, sandwiches, and a good selection of meats. The pharmacy is excellent, with cheerful, helpful staff who take time to explain medications. Customer service and positive attitudes are in abundance. However, the store is often packed and aisles can be blocked with restocking or extra merchandise, making it frustrating to navigate. The layout differs from other grocery stores, which can make items hard to find. While significant savings and fuel points are possible, it is better to know your prices. A common complaint is poor cell service and no Wi-Fi, which makes using digital coupons difficult.
