This was from AOL this morning. I couldn't find any article... just pictures.
"Safeway supermarkets, facing a decline in store sales, says it will be lowering prices in 2009, including on milk, and focusing more on store brands."

Their dumping brand names for their less than excellent store brands is one reason I haven't shopped Safeway in over a year now. I doubt I'm the only one - wonder if they factored that into their "decline in store sales?"
use it up, wear it out, make it do, do without
I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.

I shop there. I hate going into KTA because it smells so bad.

Yep I shop there too because KTA smells like rotten stinkies. I will say this Safeway is nothing like others I shopped in, although the layout is familiar. Hopefully the new one will be better.

I shope the sales everywhere.
For those who shop at safeway make sure that you check your reciept. There is something wrong 50% of the time. Either the put the wrong product under the sales item tag or they don't give the right price/discount. I swear they mislead the public by adding the tag on the wrong place or its only on a certain size. Read carefully and check your reciept. I am not exagerating on the 50%. It has become a game to me not to be overcharged.

I thought KTA smelled like a seafood market toward the rear, but I liked the store. When I was there the poke selection was great, if I didn't get there too late. Their miso tako was very good but I can't find anyone to make it here. The cook at a local restaurant said they made it for themselves but wouldn't make it for the restaurant. If anyone knows how to make the sauce and the preparation for it I would love to know. The Safeway is ok too.

Never noticed the smell in KTA before. Hmmm, maybe I'm olfactory-challenged-or just got used to being around fish all the time in Japan. I'm pay attention next time I'm in there.
Smelly or not, if there's a deal, I'm there.

Lowering them from outrageous to ridiculous?
