    Definitely one of my favorite grocery stores…read more I like the app they have. If you are looking for an item and can't find it - you always can look it up there. it will give you the aisle number. Also, the staff is very attentive. Yesterday I was looking for a dairy product and the dairy section is pretty big. I guess I was looking lost - staff member came up to me asking what I was looking for and took me right to the shelf I needed. And it wasn't the first time. Lots of discounts throughout the store. They all work if you have a membership card. Sometimes you can find "double" sales. The store would have a sale and you can use an extra coupon. Make sure to clip the coupon in the app before you go to the register. I usually go to self-checkout. You can run your membership after you scan all the items, but coupons have to be clipped before you do that. Overall a nice and clean store with friendly staff.

    Deceptive practices. Was at Freddy's in Tumwater again to check out the sales rack I've been…read morewatching for weeks now because they had a shirt on the upto 70% off sale. Well today I decided to ask about the sale price of the shirt but was showed where it was 40% off. I asked the salesperson about the price. I looked at a few of the items on the rack and all items were on sale at 40% to 60% not 70% off not one single item on the rack. Talked with 2 Managers. One agreed with my respective along with the sales girl. Went to other 70% off sale racks in the store and there wasn't 1 item with 70% off. Again 60 to 40% off. What a racket. Watch out for them. Oh by the way did I say I looked at the rack for several weeks. Same clothes there. Nothing for 70% off.

    This used to be my favorite store to shop at. It had the feel of a neighborhood grocery store…read morewhere everyone knows the checkers names and they know yours. Yes, the prices have always been higher than other stores around but you used to receive amazing customer service so it was worth it. Not anymore. Every time I go in there now the employees are rude, short, abrupt and act put out to help you. They have a ton of self check out lines now and usually one or two actual checkers working. So either you are doing the work yourself or waiting in a long line. It is without fail that something rings up more than it should and I ask the employee working in the self check out line to help. I am usually met with annoyance and a "cant you figure this out" attitude. No, I haven't been trained in your system and don't know the nuances of being a checker. Lets talk about prices. They are over the top more expensive than Winco or Walmart and often, Fred Meyers. They have digital deals but they are a pain in the arse to use and half the time they don't ring correctly at the check out stand. So, why come here? That is the question. Rude employees and high prices. I don't know what has happened with management because the culture used to be kind employees and now, I feel like I would get better service at Walmart, which is saying a lot. I will choose other stores from now on to shop for groceries.

    This is my nearest market so is always a wonderfully quick stop for pharmaceuticals, and even…read morebasics like milk bananas apples, etc. I do not do any of my "big" shopping as the store prices seem quite high for the quality of the products sold, not to mention it's more of a small-chain "corporate" feel. Less than .2 miles north of this Safeway is a fantastic GEM of a grocer by the name of Spud's Produce Market: in this locally focused find they can replenish your growlers with local craft brews, they represent local bakers artisans and farmers (I bought 9 varieties of apples at the end of my last stop), and they have the best intense variety of coolio condiments I had never heard of quite literally went through the store loading my shopping cart to overflowing, and did the same with a second cart... it was like Christmas in November! So sorry, Safeway: my vote will always go to Spuds. Note: I would have assigned only 2 stars so unimpressive and unremarkable the location and what I've seen of "professionalism" among the floor staff, but Safeway Cleveland Ave PHARMACY? Big HIGH-FIVE and MANY THANKS and public recognition for the efficiency speed accuracy determination and the positive attitudes of pharmacists and pharmacy techs... seriously YOU ROCK!
