    What can you say? Fred Meyer has a great selection of everything at Lake City. On both levels you'll probably find everything you need. The bottom level has groceries, housewares, electronics, seasonal items, a deli and a coffee stand. A great selection of shoes, yes, even inexpensive house brands for about $30 in a good range of sizes (in the very back of the store, in the corner). The meats are good, the dairy is good, the veggies are good--not much bad to say about this store, although certain areas of the deli area are in desperate need of deep cleaning (have you seen underneath the hot serving pans when they remove them?). I don't shop here too much any more, though, because of no plastic bags. I always forget to bring my reusable bags INTO the store, because I go to the Safeway Kenmore now instead, but since Fred Meyer is right next to my house, it's very convenient when I don't feel like driving.

    Local pitstop for random consumer knowledge. Exhibit A, the placement of ping pong balls in the frozen aisles. Exhibit B, CAT7 ethernet technology for over-gauranteeing streaming of episodes of Friends. Exhibit C, the realization that Freddies is a deep sink hole of spenditures for Corned Beef and Pepsi, the connections not fully understood, never the less purchased.

I bought 3 items in 3 different transactions, trying to get the right size as the various sizes came in and went out of stock. Then I schlep them all to the physical store, thinking it will be easy to return the 2 that didn't fit. Well, if you pay by Paypal, the only thing Aritzia will do is give you store credit. Extremely antiquated and a totally wasted trip. So, I had to call their "concierge" who at every turn told me about all the exceptions she was making to their policies, the refund back to Paypal was "one time," the price adjustment to the item I kept made this very popular item "final sale." And they couldn't really confidently advise placing the 2 items I'm returning by mail in the same box. In fact, she basically advised that the 7-10 days for them to process a return for items in the same box could actually end up being as much as 20 days. WTH? They have some cute things, but 100% not worth it!

Too bad anything on sale is not returnable per their policy. But I am sure I will enjoy my cute hoodie that was 20% off!

I was disappointed the bigger handicap room was used as stock, so I had to try on clothes with the door open so I can keep an eye on my toddler in the stroller. The sale section is always stocked up and organized.

I noticed when looking at the sale items the employee (young blonde woman with her hair up in white shirt) that came behind me and abruptly asked "finding everything ok?" with attitude and no smile, started to follow me and watch me. It was weird. She wasn't watching other young women as intently as me.... Then before checking out I noticed another young blonde employee wearing black was watching me too as if I was going to steal. I have been a loyal customer to this location for two years now but damn after today I don't want to return if I'll just be harassed by employees judging me and assuming I'm going to do something bad like what... weird experience and highly unpleasant.

I do like Urban Outfitters for its fun accessories, which has me visiting this store whenever I'm in the area. My friend and I stopped by here after lunch since we were already walking towards the bus stop. It's always still a mystery how UO decides to organize and display their apparel. Women's apparel and accessories is on the main floor, with some home and gift items. On the bottom floor is where you'll find more home and gift items, in addition to a small men's apparel selection and where all the clearance is. No matter how many times I visit UO the clearance is always hectic...at all locations. The racks were disorganized and there were different prices for the same item at this particular location. If you're in the area and have some time to browse then stop by this Urban Outfitters. There are quirky gift items, including funny cards/stationary, plush animals and home items you didn't think you needed 'til you visited the store and saw said home item. There's always a sale here, too!

I arrived just before 5:00 PM on a Thursday. An older man with purple hair was leaving as I arrived. I was the only customer in the store for the hour or so I was there. The owner was behind the counter and we chatted for most that time. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. if it were close to where I live, I'd make it my hangout. Named after an album by The Fall, it's maybe 20x35 ft, with racks lining three walls and another rack in the middle. I shop for vinyl but I saw some CDs and cassettes. Hex Enduction has the best-curated selection of new records I've encountered, and by "new" I mean not new releases but records that are not previously owned. (There are also some new releases.) It has a big selection of used records, too. I ended up with new copies of the Buzzcocks' Singles Going Steady, Radiohead's OK Computer OKNOTOK, and Nirvana's In Utero, plus a clean-looking used copy of CCR's Cosmo's Factory, all from my running list of must-haves. Impulse buys included Brian Eno's Discreet Music, which I'd had on cassette in the early 80s but had never encountered on vinyl; Out in the Storm, by Waxahatchee; and Moon Beams by the Bill Evans Trio. I added a used copy of Hackney Diamonds, by the Stones, because I remembered enjoying it when it came out, and the price was good. There were many more options for future trips. I'm not a punk/hardcore/metal guy, so I didn't spend time with that part of the inventory, but based on my conversation with the owner, I'd expect that section to be very well-selected. I also didn't spend much time with the books, because that wasn't my focus, but they, like the records, appeared well-curated. I will definitely go back!

When I contacted the shop, they showed zero sympathy for how important the evening was and offered no apology or compensation whatsoever. They insisted that if the zipper was going to fail, it would have done so in the store -- "never" outside of it. Their solution was to fix the zipper the following day, which was completely unacceptable since the dress was needed that night. To make matters worse, they wanted me to drive over an hour to University Village at 3:30 PM on a Saturday afternoon with my daughter stuck in the broken dress so they could "inspect" the zipper. My daughter was part of a group of 11 seniors headed to professional pictures, dinner, and the prom--time was extremely limited. This lack of understanding and flexibility made a very stressful situation even worse. When I expressed my desire for a refund, I was told it was outside their 30-day window and no refund or exchange would be offered. When we purchased the dress, we were told we had to buy it immediately to have it in time for the dance--essentially protecting them from any responsibility, no matter the circumstances. Adding insult to injury, when my daughter tried contacting the woman for help to get out of the dress, her calls went unanswered and were never returned. We were also wrongly accused of zipping the dress incorrectly and misaligning the zipper teeth. Anyone who has dealt with formal dresses knows it takes more than one person to zip these dresses. None of the teeth were damaged, and the zipper was not misaligned -- my daughter was fully zipped into the dress before it failed. They clearly don't care about your special evening; the money is the only thing that matters. I cannot recommend this shop for formal dresses. There are shops that care far deeper than your pockets. This is not one of them!!!!

I understand if I missed the cash return period (the holidays are busy, I meant to make the exchange sooner), but I was very unhappy that I couldn't at least make an exchange. I also made other holiday returns / exchanges that day at Vuori, Anthropologie and Nordstrom that day, and all of them accepted my returns for cash or exchanges.

I will not be making future purchases from Athleta.
