WF is actually more cheaper these days compared target, and even safeway. often times food items that are nearby date will be half off. plus prime sales are always there.
Yep, same near me. Safeway is the worst with the couponing too. You must use their app for the coupons and if there aren't coupons for exactly what you want you'll end up spending more than if you'd just gone to whole foods. Their coupons in the app also don't always scan correctly. To top it all off, I don't know if this is a problem with my location or Safeway as a whole, but the produce is already halfway rotten. They're truly the worst grocery store chain I know it.
i went there for the first time in almost a long time, because stopped going before the pandemic because the security was too sus. and i was shocked how expensive things are in there, compared to even walgreens, lol, and target. never seen rotten food at safeway, but its just how expensive some items are you would think should be cheap. Im guessing people are mostly using it for Pharmacy instead.
they covid, and competition probably did them in. so many other chains to choose from besides safeway. plus there things like asian food places, like pho, boba shops, not the low quality food of safeway.
