Fred Meyer

I just got home from my first black Friday experience at Fred Meyer — but only as my daughter’s ‘cart protector’ and token ‘save our place in line’ role. From everything that I have heard from my wife and kids about black Friday shopping over the years, I was pretty impressed with Fred Meyer. A lot of staff walking around to help and suggest what was on sale and when. And the checkers seemed to be having fun too — smiling and super friendly.
There were a few customers shopping who clearly should have stayed in bed for another hour or two — and even those didn’t dent the Fred Meyer crew’s enthusiasm.
A good morning on some great deals and I dare say, I could do that again.

I love Fred Meyer, they have the best balance between quality and prices.
Love the fact they are bringing more and more organic items. And they ate at very good prices. Really in comparison with other grocery stores, here you find the best deal on organic.
Always clean, staff is always nice,

This Fred Meyers has everything we need and more, some of the staff could use a little pick me up on some days, but other than that we love this location!

Only went in once. Had a good experience. Clean, friendly staff. Got what I needed and was even directed when I needed help finding it.

We use Fred Meyer for household items and it’s our main grocery store. I routinely save 7−15% on my bills, because I take the time to use their flyer AND I look at the grocery coupons that come out in the mail. Their selection is not vastly wide but they have lots of Asian foodstuffs, and it’s enough for 99% of my food needs. Their seafood, deli, and booze make it so that I don’t need to do a separate trip. Their gas program is an extra bonus; I always save 10 or 30 cents a gallon, which adds up. I think their prices on groceries are as good as one can get around here, only about 5−10% higher than in Illinois, and I had anticipated more from what I had read about cost of living here before I moved.
All the employees have been great; I have never seen ONE with an attitude. In fact, it’s the complete opposite: they are always happy to help without it seeming like a tribulation.
I have had to return a few items and they were always great about it.
Their clothes are not high fashion but are just fine for what I and my family need.
It’s also really convenient, right by the hardware store and other stops.
Sometimes they are out of sale items, but I think it’s because I have gone in several days later (it’s not like they list a «sale» and only put out 5 items).

Umm, I love this place. If you are local, this is as good as it gets grocery or homegoods shopping-​wise. The lines are never long, there is always someone there to direct you if you are waiting and there is a checker open and the prices are THE best in town in regards to grocery. This is the hub of Monroe, and I am a loyal customer after shopping around. Their customer service is the best I’ve ever seen & who doesn’t like free childcare while you shop if you’re a parent? Also, amazing end of season sales! Buy your next size up kids winter coats at ¼ of the price every year! AND buy your cute boots for next to nothing on clearance! Gas discounts give me the ability to fill up for cheap just for shopping too.
Good job FM’s! We love you guys.

I like this store better than the one by me. Generally have good experiences but i hate the way the store is set up and where the entrances are located. I think it ciuld use some major updating and their produce coukd be a bit fresher.

THIS IS FOR FRED MEYER JEWELERS IN MONROE–
Recently engaged, my fiancé decided to go to Fred Meyer Jewelers-​which I understand-​its convenient. He got me a cute little ring for about $ 1000, 1 month later this ring was on sale for $ 499!!! So I went in to exchange it to get a bigger ring & paid extra to upgrade to get what I really wanted. So, at this point I now have a $ 2000 ring. I have this new ring for 1 month, THE PRONGS BREAK AND MY DIAMOND FALLS OUT! Of course, I was furious! I went in and the girls there are very nice, but the man is SO BEYOND RUDE! Makes you feel like you’re scum, and like you’re a broke because you cant buy a $ 5000 ring! I wish I could just take my money and go to a jeweler who values me as a customer.
THE ACTUAL FRED MEYER STORE IS GREAT!

Just as the star rating says, this location is A-​OK. Nothing special or exciting about this store. Being in Monroe, there is limited resources when it comes to clothes or shoes purchasing and their pricing is higher than average. It’s more like shopping at Nordstom with Walmart quality clothing. I’m not saying that Fred Meyers quality is lacking but rather that their pricing is high. They have a great selection in the grocery department and their staff is great. The store is clean and organized and I have shopped here many times due to their location.

Editing the previous review down from two to one star — sent my kid down here for the midnight sale event for ‘Destiny’ — the FM website says all midnight sales event buyers will get free Redbull, a free $ 5 gift card, and entry for a raffle to win a $ 100 gift card. Monroe Fred Meyer only delivered on the raffle, despite being asked about the gift card, no Red Bull in sight. DO WHAT YOU SAY YOURE GONNA DO FM.
ok original review follows=====
.Love the prices and selection of Fred Meyer chain. Like their online app, downloadable coupons, rewards, gas discounts, etc.
This store is almost as bad as the Bothell store in keeping ad items stocked on the shelves. I mean, DREADFUL. Meal planning at my house usually starts with ‘whats on sale this week’ at Freddies, but at this store very frequently they cant be bothered to keep stuff on the shelf, so I have to re-​plan while in the store. For some reason, the Kirkland, Lynnwood and Snohomish stores seem to do well, so I can only imagine that its management here.
I keep shopping here due to proximity and their prices. I guess we’ll have to wait for Walmart to open here to gird management into doing their job, managing work force and inventory.
I wish Fred Meyer would let their ‘app’ include the paper coupons, its SO ANNOYING trying to get my hands on the weekly ad coupons here.
Oh, and one last thing I HATE BEING ACCOSTED BY DIRECT TV SALES PEOPLE IN THE STORE! Got that? :)

Great!

I usually encounter friendly helpful employees at this store, but not on Wednesday Jan 22, 2014. The checker (Kristi) was unbelievably rude, discourteous, and provided very poor customer service. WHY is someone with such a negative attitude working in customer service? Especially at this store that is known for good customer service. I hope management talks with this employee about her attitude before more customers start complaining about her!

I love this Freddies! Always clean and the lines aren’t long.

My two favorite stores are Monroe and Snohomish Fred Meyer. The employees are always kind and courteous, as well as very helpful. As a customer, I can tell that in both locations, people really like their jobs. Fred Meyer has great prices, inventory, selection and fresh produce and bakery items. I recommend both locations!

Good selection of clothing and 40% off almost everything was fantastic!
I came to Monroe for a weekend for a wedding and had some downt time, so I walked into Fred Meyer for quick shopping. This store is huge and found a good variety of clothing, most of which had some type of discount! Clothing wasn’t cheaply made.
All in all enjoyed this Fred Meyer, especially compared to others that I have been in, it was much cleaner and organized with friendlier people!

Be still my beating heart. Seriously. They have absolutely everything you could ever need or want and then some.
They have gone above and beyond at times and even special-​ordered certain flavors of syrup that they don’t normally stock for me. Besides that, everyone is friendly, the prices are great, and I love that everything is easy to find.
As Olivia Newton-​John would say, «I love you. I honestly love you.»

As a Fred Meyer fiend, this is my favorite Fred Meyer to date (I’ve been to more then 15 of them in Washington and Oregon lol). It’s always clean, its laid out very intuitively and the employees are really nice. The only thing that could make this location better, would be to give it the Fuel Station like Snohomish :) Fred Meyer really is a One-​Stop Shopping!

As good as grocery stores go, entrance is a little confusing with no signage above it. Good selection of candy and clear aisles. Plenty of parking too.
