Fred Meyer 12+

This app, through its various updates, has had the same issues—every time you look something up to add it to the list (in my regulars) sometimes I have to recheck everything, sometimes I don’t. Usually I have to uncheck things I didn’t have checked. I think it confuses the app, but it would be nice if it could remember what was and wasn’t checked. That leads to the second issue—double listing of a product in your list, and if you try to delete one, it deletes both of them, and if you add one back, it adds two separate listings again. The only way I have found to work with this is to just go through the cart and undouble things that it has doubled the amount of. Another problem (and this becomes user/app problems at this point) is that if you’ve had to add a few things, you may have gone back and forth and re-checked items so many times that even though you have really tried to be careful, you inevitably forget something because you _thought_ it was checked.

Don’t get me wrong—I truly appreciate this app and the being able to just pick our groceries up. It makes things so much easier. I think if I were a mom with little kids this would be a fantastic thing—but hopefully not having the issues ordering that I have been. I keep thinking with each update that it’s going to stop, so maybe it’s my phone/tablet. I am grateful it’s here, I just wish the process was smoother.

Ive been using the Fred Meyer/Kroger app for grocery pickup since pre-covid. I have an autoimmune disease that makes going out in the winter difficult and painful, and started ordering my groceries via the app as soon as it was available in my area. The app is very convenient to use and makes clipping store and manufacturer coupons very easy. I can add notes for my substitutions, and i do on most orders. Just like “I don’t care what brand or style for this” or “for a recipe so a substitution needs to be x specific type.” Considering the shortages we’ve been having in alaska for years now, this app has been incredibly helpful. The store shoppers know better than i do sometimes what replacements will work. Incidentally, the actual people at my local store are the reason I use the Fred Meyer app exclusively for my grocery shopping as opposed to any other grocery chain. Their employees are amazing and very helpful and I’m very grateful they offer this service. I know it has to be a pain, especially since it’s free.

Do not get this app. They will rob you blind if you don’t scrutinize each receipt. They lure you w great coupons until you get home to read your receipt to see cheated again. Twice in one week they did NOT apply the coupons at the register. They expect you to wait in line in the store customer service. Last time gal bit my head off. Same day spent $100 cheated AGAIN and after nearly 10 attempts to recover my money from the call center (They could have applied a credit) they still insist I go back and wait in line another 20 minutes and get my head bit off again. THEN I see they completely deleted over 500 gas rewards off my account which was the final straw. In 2.5 months I earned over 1700 points but FM your fun stops here. I will NEVER use your app again. I want to convey to all of your unsuspecting customers Fred Meyer app will siphon money from you if you don’t watch it. BE CAREFUL Kroger is a thief to innocent customers. SHAME on you Kroger. I assure you I will not spend that much money in your store so quickly as I will return to being a sporadic shopper going in only when i absolutely HAVE to. Burning bridges w good customers doesn’t phase you I realize. Oh well at least I’ll never be forced to endure this torture again. Bye forever FM “one sided “loyalty” program. I’m loyal to you, that’s the only loyalty going on here. Kroger cheats!
