100%

The Giant in Olney is new and fine, but I still prefer Safeway.


The Giant in Flower Hill is gross. The Giant on Shady Grove is on its way to gross.

Seriously! OP, should no stores exist that you don’t personally like?

We cannot afford to shop at either HT or Wegmans. Safeway is so much lower cost for same quality.

Our Safeway is the 2nd lowest cost (Lidl has lowest prices but variable quality). Our Safeway is lower cost than Giant or Wegmans or Whole Foods (the other options near us). It is large, clean, bright, well stocked and well staffed. So we shop there all the time.

It sounds like OP lives near a dud though. Maybe OP should complain to the Corporate office - complaints directly to the local store are a waste of time.

Instead of reducing the price to encourage people to buy produce nearing the end of its life, they let it all rot and throw it in a dumpster out the back.

Safeway produce is notoriously the absolute worst. It’s so weird, it’s all the same brands as other stores yet it’s horrible. Tasteless or a mouthful of chemicals or just plain old and gross. Consistently terrible

We much prefer the Kensington Safeway to the Giant up the street in Wheaton.

Who don’t grow their own vegetables and fruits.

The Giant in our neighborhood is awful. I don't know how that location stays in business.

The Giants in much nicer neighborhoods are respectable.

Safeway Bethesda Sangamore is the same. Like the staff couldn't be more surly and unhelpful if they try. Avoid.

It’s the union and/or how Safeway deals with union demands

I thought Safeway was already run by Albertson's.
