Safeway

"I like to go late in the day or before closing. There is hardly anybody there and the shelves are being restocked, it's quiet and the employees are more friendly and willing to help you with any questions and it's just a nicer and cleaner store than the other big grocery chain here in Denver."

"It's like a backrooms horror video game. Walked in, halfway down the aisle heading to the back of the store, the acrid stench of rotting fish and ammonia hits you in the face, the closer you get to the meat section the more face melting it becomes. This is not a one time thing. I went to get a brisket, and the meat had sticky brown blood all over the packages, which got on my hands. No napkins or hand sanitizer was on the meat counter, but I know the bathrooms are filthy so I decided to not wash my hands. Headed over to the bread and milk area and there were already eaten chicken bones just laying on the floor. Is this supposed to be normal? It's crazy in here. I go up to the cashier, oh. There are none. But there's a hunchback boy in a dress. Wonderful. I'll avoid that too. Way to be nuts Safeway. I feel like would have a better shopping experience in Venezuela or perhaps North Korea."

"No cashier lanes were open early Sunday 3/3. Two boys were sitting near the self check machines. I politely asked if I could check out. One boy opened a lane to check my groceries and then asked me if I wanted bags? How would I carry my groceries without bags? He bagged most of my items, but left them on the counter, I had to put them in the cart myself. No work ethic."

"If you want to be racially, profiled look no further, this is the Safeway for you. I tried to purchase some pastrami on sale, marked managers special. The sale price usually doesn’t come up when scanned so I snapped a photo to show cashier just in case. Well, of course it tried to scan full price so I showed Adrianna the cashier the photo of the price. She kindly implied that I was lying and she would have to go see. Although irritated I told her I understood and walked her to the display. Well that was not enough. She looked me up and down as if I had somehow printed the sale sticker on display and asked if I was sure that I didn’t get the meat from the deli counter. I said no. She told me she would have to ask the person at the deli and she did just that. Unbelievable. I think the price difference she was accusing me of trying to grift was about 3 dollars. We walked back to the register, and she grudgingly charged me the accurate price. I reached out to the manager on site and he was helpful but I feel he has no control over the situation. I just wanted to let Adriana know that I had a smile when I walked into the store and I left with a very heavy heart. I have been a Safeway customer for over 35 years.sad."

"Beautiful flower selection. I did buy an arrangement also for a friend. Whoever is putting them together is doing a great job! Thank you!"
