TL;DR
The Russian Fix Price chain doesn't operate in Hurghada — shops with a similar "Fix Price" sign are local souvenir stores with fixed prices, which aren't always cheap. For everyday goods (not just souvenirs), try the Sokar chain instead.
Shops labeled "Fix Price" in Hurghada are local souvenir stores with set/fixed prices, not branches of the well-known international discount chain. Despite the name, prices aren't always low.
You can spot a "Fix Price" sign from the bus window during a city sightseeing tour — confirming these shops are common and visible to tourists around town.
For a wider range of goods beyond souvenirs, head to the Sokar store chain instead — it offers a broader selection than the souvenir-style "Fix Price" shops.
