Coming from the Midwest I visited Fry's for the first time in early 2020 weeks before COVID. I had always heard amazing things about the store, for years. It was on my short list of places to visit on the west coast. That place was not a healthy operation. Close to half the shelves were empty, the place was generally a mess and needed a deep clean, and worst of all the employees seemed entirely disinterested in helping me.

When news came that they had shut down I was entirely unsurprised.

COVID might have sped things up a little but that location at least was on its last legs.

They were already very much going out of business in 2020. They were dying throughout the 2010's.

It was not healthy in 2015 either, which is around the last time I visited.
