About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were browsing the aisles, an elderly gentleman approached the produce section and started humming softly to himself. Suddenly, over the store’s intercom, came a voice: ‘Attention Safeway shoppers—if you see someone singing in the tomatoes, that’s just our regular Mr. Johnson.’ Later that day, when a delivery driver arrived with boxes of fresh strawberries, he heard a familiar tune coming from behind them. Turns out Mr. Johnson had found his new favorite spot among the berries. The manager smiled, knowing that sometimes Safeway's best advertisements come from unexpected sources.
2. One day, while checking out, a customer exclaimed, ‘I just found something strange in my groceries!’ The cashier raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, ‘What did you find?’ The customer opened the bag and pulled out a tiny note that read: ‘Sorry for the inconvenience, your groceries are on us today.’ Everyone laughed, including the cashier who later admitted it was probably done by a friendly neighborhood Safeway employee with a sense of humor.
3. One afternoon, as shoppers were gathering their groceries, an announcement came over the store’s PA: ‘Attention, Safeway family—we’ve got milk that talks!’ A moment of silence fell over the aisles as everyone turned towards the dairy section. A carton of organic whole milk slowly tilted its corner and whispered, 'Just pour me in your coffee.' Before anyone could react, a regular exclaimed, 'That’s not just any milk—it’s talking Safeway!' And ever since then, customers leave with more than groceries—they take home a little bit of mystery.
4. While loading his shopping cart one evening, a regular called out: 'Did anyone else notice that the bananas are waving?' Another customer looked up from her avocados and quipped, ‘They’re not waving, they’re doing the banana dance!’ A delivery driver overheard and laughed, saying, ‘That’s nothing—wait till you see how those oranges sing when I stack them.’ The regular shook his head with a smile, pushing off into the aisles of Safeway, wondering what other strange sights awaited him today.
