. . "4"^^ . . "0"^^ . "0"^^ . "Anyone who knows me, knows I do not like to shop. Not at the mall, not at the outlet center...but especially not at the grocery store. I can't stand the screaming kids (I already have one of my own, thank you), the long lines, and shopping cart obstacle course. \n\nBut......in general, Fresh & Easy is my kind of grocery store. It is never busy. The aisles are wide and free of clutter. Each week they have different $0.98 produce specials. They have great coupons (5 off 25 regularly). Their pre-prepared items are convenient and tasty when I am in a pinch and need something quick. Last but not least, they regularly serve samples of their own F&E branded foods and beverages. It serves as the *perfect* keep-princess-quiet-so-that-everyone-can-shop-in-peace pit stop.\n\nAt this particular location of Fresh & Easy, the parking lot is clean, well-lit and offers plenty of parking stalls. The shelves are well stocked and the staff is friendly. There are enough checkout lanes/stands that I have yet to see a line form. Oh yeah, don't forget to check out the \"Up to 50% Off\" seciton. It is always full of goodies!"^^ . "2011-07-25T00:00:00"^^ . "0"^^ .
