3/4 of a lb less at home.
Lorraine M.

So fellow shoppers, if you can't get enough of being ripped off by corporate America this Safeway will make your dreams come true! I bought what I thought was 3 lbs of 93% ground beef. But when I took it home, unwrapped it from the plastic wrap and weighed it on my scale (to get 2 lbs for my recipe and put 1 lb away in the freezer) I discovered it was only 2 lbs 15 oz. That's including the store's tray, so it really was less than 2:15. So if you like being cheated, rush down to the meat dept and see if you can be ripped off too! You better hurry. I'm notifying state bureau of weights and measures to see if they care to do anything about it. From now on, it's the local carneceria for me. What was I thinking? I hate corporations anyway!

I really like shopping at Safeway can always find some really fresh seafood in fact today I found some really great crabcakes they were tasty and very fresh and it was even better that they were on sale

THE GOOD 1. This Safeway was renovated after Albertson's, a mile up the road, moved out and the higher priced Haggen's moved in. 2, The smell disappeared. 3. The meat department got a manned counter with happy butchers. 4. Transgendered people will have no possible embarrassment using the single public restroom and toilet. 5. They now have an occasional security guard at the front door. THE BAD 1. They need a security guard at the front door. A year ago, I saw a woman's purse pulled from her arm near the shopping carts. 2. No nearby competition. The neighboring Haggen's store vanished and was replaced by Albertson's after it merged with Safeway. The three large grocery stores on Silverbell Road, including this one, are all owned by Safeway and carry various stocks of the same products. 3. This location no longer carries the best mass produced yogurt in the US made by Tillamook. They dropped Smart Balance® margarine and no longer stock Bumble Bee® Prime Fillet Albacore Tuna with Sun-dried Tomatoes & Olive Oil (according to Anthony). Tillamook ice-cream is rumored to disappear soon. THE UGLY The toilet. I got cut on the door to the restroom. The sharp edge of the push plate is now hammered safely flat. CONCLUSION Because of the good people that work here, I am truly sad to say that this old store is well below average.

Ok place. Too many ragged, drunk people coming in and making scene. Tough to control being there, but still unpleasant.

There are customers line up at the self check-out, yet not a normal check out open. I ask a worker who is chatting with another worker if they are going to open a check-out, she looks at me as if I'm bothering her and says nope then goes back to chatting. Again, WTF? I've got a cart full and already put in my 8 hours for the day. Now they want me to do their job as well. Self checkouts weren't made for that. Originally they were made for the guy who has 2 items and didn't want to wait in the normal checkout. He could get out quickly. Now after 7 they want everyone to use them. Maybe if I got a discount, I would be more willing to self checkout but I'm paying full price. Like I said, I already put in 8 hours at my job, my job is hard physical work. I don't feel like doing their job too. What do you think? Are you ok working for Fry's for free after you worked all day? No other place makes you work when you go there, no restaurant makes you cook your own food, no doctors office make you do your own physical, no bar makes you pour your own beer or make your own drink. What does Fry's think they can make you work for free. I hope someone from corporate reads this and does what's right go back to the way they did it for years and years. Or I'll be driving a little farther to get the customer service that Fry's lacks. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I'm a guy in…read moremy 60s and I've been in a lot of grocery stores over the years, but this place felt a little different right away. The produce section alone is worth the trip. Huge selection, everything looked fresh, and it actually felt like a real market instead of just rows of the same old stuff. I spent more time over there than I expected. The associates were another pleasant surprise. Every person I talked to was friendly and genuinely helpful. You don't always see that anymore, so it stood out. What really caught me off guard was the bulk section. I've never seen anything like it in a regular grocery store. Nuts, grains, snacks, all kinds of things you can scoop yourself. Pretty neat idea. And the vitamin section? Honestly the biggest vitamin and supplement selection I've seen anywhere outside of an actual vitamin store. All in all, a really solid first experience. Clean store, great selection, and good people working there. I'll definitely be coming back.

There's a huge selection of organic fruits and vegetables, and the overall vibe of the store is genuinely pleasant. everyone seems kind and helpful. They were out of the bulk oats I usually get, which was a bit of a letdown, but I was able to find a solid alternative without much trouble. Overall, still a very positive shopping trip.

First things first: this review is not about the employees. They are all awesome and this store is…read moremy go-to Albertsons. This review is for corporate. Albertsons corporate offices clearly have not spent much time in the stores judging by the decisions they make. For example. Today I did some light shopping but big enough to need a cart. When I go to check out there is only one cashier lane open (as usual, even though they need more) and the line was full of several people with large quantities in their cart. So I go to the self check even though it pains me knowing self check just means one more person without employment. Anyway they now have these massive bins holding sale items smack in the middle of the tiny self check square. Total nightmare! If you have a cart you are unable to pass to exit since other people are at a kiosk checking out and there's zero room between them and the sale bins. It is one big traffic jam and the poor employees are forced to move people around while they're trying to check out just to keep the line moving. There was so little space that I am fairly confident this is not ADA compliant. I truly think Albertsons corporate believes that only people with small items and no cart go to self check. If you only employ one cashier however, this is not the case. Especially on a busy weekend. I will never understand forcing your customers to be employees and not paying or even trusting them but that's a whole other topic. Every customer and every employee was frustrated and complaining about these stupid sale bins. It does not take a genius to know this was a bad idea. Remove the bins!

They still have the pizza take out bar with a variety of toppings. They have some items or brands you won't find in other places but may not have brands you get elsewhere. It's nice to discover some new things you haven't tried before. The bakery has some tempting things to look at. The store is large with wide enough aisles so you can browse easily. Prices are a little higher than other places but some things may be worth it. The parking is limited only because of all the other businesses in the area. I'll go back and look around again. I can usually find something I want to try.

I have never eaten at Whole Foods, I've only ever shopped there. But they actually have a huge…read moreselection of to-go foods available in their deli section. They also have ready made sushi, which is what I ended up getting. They have a little something for everyone ranging from your typical American food like pizza, pasta, chicken fingers and salads to Mexican, Indian and Asian food. The sushi I got was really tasty. The spring rolls I got were okay but the dipping sauce is not what I expected which was a tangy sauce. Usually for spring rolls it's a peanut sauce. For sushi they have low sodium soy sauce available which is a plus. There is very limited seating at the store to sit down and eat so most likely you'll have to bring your food home. All in all, it's not bad. Fairly cheap, and a decent selection!

I have to choose this locale, where I went Wednesday, to moan about the severe hike in prices, short cycle of products, and the drift from doing the basics correctly. TJ used to march to a different drummer. House brands with quality for household staples, often with an international flavor and source. There is still a wide variety of decent international staples, but it's highly focused on cult products and flavorings. Prepackaged and ultra-processed foods are becoming standard(s). Protein is down, carbs are up. There's still a reasonable variety of veggies, fresh, but not in wide abundance. Certain common items, like walnuts, go missing for long periods of time, and other items become seasonable and their shelf space is unreliable.
