| I love Amazon as a business and investment opportunity, but those Fresh stores are so badly designed. Ugh. |

| I went there once. Never went back. Too insipid, and clinical and calculating of a feeling. I like warmth when I shop. Not the feeling of being watched with every move and transaction and that I’m lining the pockets of a billionaire. Plus I didn’t like the employees there last time I went, either. |

Yes, there is no warm atmosphere like in other supermarkets. Whole Foods feels very welcoming. Giant does too. Costco, despite it's factory size, also feels welcoming. Fresh is so cold, physically and figuratively. |

They have stopped the automatic check out, which I loved. However, the store has always been problematic. Many shelves are empty, there’s not a great selection and they don’t seem to have anyone going around the store to push items to the front of the shelf, which makes it tough for a short person like me.
I really really want the store to work because it’s very close to me but each time I go brings new frustrations. |

| I haven’t been since the reopening, although I’ve been while they were in the process of changing things. They got rid of the not-really-a-butcher counter. They’ve always had milk, butter, and eggs when I’ve been there — usually in the evening. I’ve been frustrated since the opened because they’re very inconsistent , and often out of things. They do seem to have added some things and brands that they didn’t have before. Fingers crossed. I’d rather have a small Giant though, even the one that was there before. |

| I hope there is some other store, aldi, Trader Joe’s (so there seem to be already 2 in Bethesda), anything really except for the useless Amazon fresh. |

| Aren’t there plans for a Friendship Heights Trader Joe’s? |

| Look up next time you go in there. You’ll be shocked at how many cameras and sensors there are. Place creeps me out. |
