About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when Safeway’s shelves were stocked but empty, a delivery driver noticed something strange. A small, dusty package kept appearing on the counter, wrapped in old newspaper and sealed with twine. Curious, he opened it to find an ancient bottle of aspirin and a note scribbled in pencil: ‘Take one for your troubles.’ From that day on, whenever anything went missing from Safeway, a neighbor would mysteriously replace it—always accompanied by a smile and a wink.
2. Late one night, as Safeway’s neon sign flickered above the entrance, a delivery driver heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention all customers and employees—please be advised that our new self-checkout scanner can now detect lies.’ Intrigued, the delivery driver approached the scanner, scanned his ID, and was asked to confirm his name. The machine blinked red for a moment before declaring, 'Mr. Delivery Driver, you are indeed who you say you are!' Everyone in line burst into laughter, including the cashier, who whispered, 'Welcome to Safeway—where technology meets comedy.'
3. Late one night, as Safeway’s neon sign flickered above the entrance, a delivery driver heard an odd voice over the intercom. ‘Attention, neighbors,’ it said in a scratchy tone. ‘We’re out of everything… except for one item—extra-large bags of potato chips.’ The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but couldn’t see anyone. Shrugging, he thought maybe it was just an old timer playing a prank. The next day, though, when he came back, the same voice crackled again: ‘Hey neighbor, could you bring us some more chips? We’re running low!’ With a smile, the driver shook his head and drove off, knowing that sometimes Safeway had its own unique way of saying hello.
4. Late one night, as Safeway’s neon sign flickered above the entrance, a delivery driver heard an odd sound coming from inside the pharmacy. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only the dimly lit counter, where a regular was counting pills. ‘Did you hear that too?’ asked the man, glancing around nervously. The delivery driver nodded, grinning. They both laughed, realizing it was just the old cash register playing tricks in the quiet night.
