| - 4 Hass avocados for under $4?? Yes, please!
One of the only places that sells microwaveable artichokes (I cannot properly steam an artichoke to save my life, nor do I have the patience to wait 45 minutes for one to cook).
Always clean, super friendly staff. Every time I'm there I swear I get asked how I'm doing at least 4 times. And no sideways looks when I go up and down the same aisles 20 times because I am indecisive. They are always super quick to help when you need help checking out (say, an ID check when you are buying alcohol). I love that they sell things in individual-sized packages. I live alone, so I really do not need the family size package of chicken breasts. This is one of the few places that has the smaller portion sizes.
I wish people would not complain about F&E employees not helping you bag. That is not part of their job. No baggers, all self checkout, concrete floors - these are all parts of the F&E business model that keep prices low, just the way I like them. Also, you can link your phone number to your friends card, so if you don't have your card on you, you can just input your phone number - you don't need an employee to swipe a store card for you.
My only complaint is that I wish there were a greater selection of fruits. Lots of empty crates (although I guess it is a good thing that people are gobbling up the fruit!). I'd also like to see more fresh cut fruit in packages (I'm lazy). I'd also like to see them sell the little half-packs of eggs and half-loaves of bread.
