Another Safeway closing.
Based on their low stock and prices up to 70% off, I expect they'll be gone
in a few days. Odd because we just happened upon a man with a sign at the entrance to Albertsons across the street. We had even been in this area prior and saw nothing. Nothing even posted to Facebook, which is how we found the last one closing. Turns out the 70% applied only to greeting cards which I did not need. Most beverages were a measly 15% off, although they didn't have much left. Everything else was 25 or 45% off. I was amazed to find good, fresh green bell peppers. Actually all of the produce was good although the selection was slightly diminished. The annoying thing to me was that I kept seeing all these bargains that my husband would like but he is over towards the East coast to various places for business for a while. Then back here only briefly then headed to the Bay area. So there is no point in buying him food at the moment. But I did buy him some HBA type items as those will keep. Bought some for us too and a very few food items. We are still doing well at eating through the stockpile. I even had to buy more refried beans, corn and olives. At any rate, I am not sure why all the stores are closing. But this one got low Yelp ratings and I am inclined to agree. You can never just get in and out of there. Always some complicated problem with the customers ahead in line. |

Safeway merged with Albertson's last year, looks like Albertson's is jettisoning less profitable/more problematic store sites. -- sf |

That store was always busy but maybe they weren't making a profit. I did see a lot of EBT and WIC purchases/ |
