The easily redeemable rebates flow
with the Fred Meyer rewards program.
A visit to the supermarket can be a daunting
and stressful task. Between the numerous aisles, frantic customers,
overhead lighting, annoying discount cards, and all manner of
aggravating distractions some all but bawl in their hands at the
mere thought of an evening at the grocery. Not so if one lives
in Seattle. Here we have the greatest supermarket of them all:
Fred Meyer!
Up front I must admit: I love Fred Meyer.
The store that I frequent, off 36th Street in Ballard, is nothing
short of breathtaking. Anything you want will surely be found
at Fred Meyer. From cutlery to fresh seafood, University
of Washington paraphernalia to organic avocados, a chocolate brown
leather couch to delicious bags of Tim’s Cascade Luau
Hawaiian Kettle Style Potato Chips and on and on and on,
all is available, fresh, and delicious at Fred Meyer.
And not only will one find the best prices (by a landslide) but
you don’t even need a Rewards Card to receive their discounts.
Sure, Fred Meyer offers discount cards just like every
other supermarket, but rather than force you to use them to get
discounts off jacked up prices they instead use your swipes and
total monthly and quarterly purchases to determine how much additional
savings certificates they will later send you in the mail.
Besides an ensemble of very generous offers, my latest Rewards
News Letter contained rebates for $7.50 straight up on my next
purchase, no strings attached. Now that’s convenience and
generosity of the highest order!
With Fred Meyer, convenience and
savings go hand-in-hand without the hassle and fuss of most other
supermarkets. From the friendly employees to the great selection
to the revelatory rewards program, Fred Meyer provides
customers with the greatest grocery shopping experience of their
lives. Quite simply, Fred Meyer is the king of all super
supermarkets.
I
being congratulated for spending lots of money!
