This is my go-to Fry's. I have no conclusive evidence, but I feel like Fry's is cheaper than Safeway. Feel free to argue amongst yourselves.
One word of advice: don't forget to grab a shopping cart outside the doors before you go in. I've been going here for two years and I still forget that until I'm inside, and have to turn around to go get one.
I have had overall good experiences with the meat, produce and dairy products. I've had one ridiculous experience with the deli counter, but I'm going to chalk that one up to what must have been a brand-new employee on the evening shift. I will try again before forming judgement. The cashiers are all very nice, and I've been here enough to recognize which ones to try to aim for if I have the choice. Pretty standard checkout experiences.
One more perk for Fry's over Safeway. They have the traffic technology that analyzes how many people are in the store and estimates how many lanes need to be open right now, and in 30 minutes. The cashiers can plan accordingly, and there are seldom long lines. Nice touch, Fry's!
