Safeway

The first star is entirely earned by Ben in the Pharmacy. He is a gem with the utmost level of professionalism and soft manners and demeanor. The second star is earned for their organization, cleanliness and layout of this small storefront. I've noticed post-pandemic that they're really trying to keep the store clean, freshly stocked and looking bright. But they lose the rest of the points for the way they treat their customers and especially at their Starbucks stand. Employees at this Safeway do not know how to make a single Starbucks drink correctly and when you ask them to kindly adjust or remake, they will give you the stinkiest attitude. They will not honor Just4U coupons at their Starbucks or the store check-out even though you show them right there from your app that it isn't expired and fully active. The staff had the nerve to tell me that it must be an expired coupon as if an app can't update correctly 🤯 on the latest and greatest phone and with the expiry listed right there on the digital coupon for them to see and consider. I mean what rubbish. Sadly, they seem to treat every single customer as if they're going to rob the place and will touch your shopping bags when you're supposed to still social distance. Even if you have the receipt 🧾 hanging out like you would at Costco, they'll still treat you like a criminal instead of focusing on the real zombies not those that are coming in after a long days work for water and meds from the pharmacy. Beware that shoppers will place their carts banged up against your car in the parking lot underneath. They don't have a care to place carts in the proper return area. Several times I've seen a cart against my car, hitting it when leaving, unfortunately. The parking lot is dirty and smelly as well. Be kind and helpful to your loyal patrons Uptown Safeway and take a chill pill. Maybe learn a few pointers from Ben on how to treat your good customers with appreciation and respect.

I was killing time before a meeting. I bought an electrolyte drink with Zero Sugar. It immediately refreshed me. I got some breakfast items that were just enough and would stay fresh until I could get home later on in the evening. The staff were so nice. It was a Trade Mark Safeway experience for sure. It set me up for going into an intense meeting with a genuine smile on my face. Thank you.

The employees that run the cash registers are pretty cool, but the loss prevention people are very judgemental and rude. They basically profile you, and if you have a backpack or a bag of any sorts they automatically treat you like you're going to steal from the store. So they follow you down every single isle you go down, or they standby the end of the isle you're in and just stare at you the entire time you try to shop. I don't know if they realize, but when someone stands and stares at you it tends to make you nerve wrecked. It makes you not wanna shop there.

This Safeway has recently turned into complete and utter garbage. When I went there were no cashiers available at all. You're expected to go through self checkout - customers are now the employees. Great! Where can I pick up my paycheck? Can't tell whether they can't hire right now or just being cheap and trying to save money. Self checkout system is complete garbage - continuously screams at you for not placing an item into the bag even though you did. When you move bag from checkout area into your cart, continuously starts screaming again. Had to get supervisor to unblock the system everytime I put a full bag into my cart. No plastic bags at all. Paper bags continuously broke when I carried the groceries from the car into my home. What a garbage grocery store. Worst of the worst.
