I swung by at 9:50 am, as I said I would do. They were setting up a big picnic/BarBQ feed in the parking lot for the employees. I spoke to a manager walking by, and he said they will probably open about 5 pm for the "soft opening" today (Tue. Aug. 25). I am gonna guess that today they'll have the same stuff as some other Fry's (here is
the current ad in the San Jose Mercury), but keep in mind their disclaimer that local newspaper specials only apply
to that area. All the local specials roll out on Friday, as you know.
The address is 800 Garden Ave. N. in Renton
MapQuest map. From I-405 ("the 405", for you folks driving in from Kal-i-forn-aye-eh), take
NE Park Ave, exit 5. Head west (downhill), and take the first light after the freeway, Garden Ave N, to the right (south). One long block, and you'll see Fry's on the left across from the huge white Cirque de Soleil tents.
