About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular was pushing his cart through Safeway when he noticed something odd: every time he passed the dairy section, his little daughter would suddenly grab his hand and whisper, ‘Daddy, look!’ As they approached the dairy aisle again, she pointed excitedly at an empty shelf and whispered, 'Look, Daddy, no milk today!' The man laughed and said, 'Honey, it's just Safeway being Safeway.' And from that day on, whenever anyone asked why their groceries were always slightly out of stock, they’d reply with a smile, 'Oh, you know—just Safeway being Safeway.'
2. While pushing her shopping cart down an aisle, a regular exclaimed, ‘I just saw that guy from the deli section stealing himself!’ As she turned around, nobody was there but the deli guy grinned sheepishly and said, ‘Just checking if my lunch looked good today!’ The regular laughed and shook her head, muttering something about delis being full of characters before heading off to pay for her own groceries.
3. In Safeway’s dairy section one day, a regular picked up a carton of milk and found it labeled not as ‘milk’ but simply: ‘Liquid for breakfast.’ Surprised, he showed it to his neighbor who chuckled and said, 'Probably some new intern had a brain fart.' They both laughed, then the neighbor grabbed another carton labeled 'Liquid for lunch'—and they decided never to buy Safeway's dairy again.
4. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Safeway with a truckload of fresh produce. As he unloaded crates of apples, he heard a strange noise coming from inside one crate. Curious, he opened it and found nothing but a tiny cricket chirping away. Smiling, he thought, ‘Must be someone’s pet.’ Later that day, a regular customer asked if they had any organic apples. The manager replied, “Only ones that sing!”}
