| - Safeway to the rescue! Delivery All The way!
In a time of need, I turned to the interwebs. Ok, and Yelp to guide me. I learned that Safeway delivers groceries here in Phoenix. Neat!
I zipped up and down the proverbial aisles to load my online shopping cart with goodies. As I'm a penny pinching goober, I shopped their sales first. (Of course, this approach had me picking up more items than I actually needed.)
Have no fear, my kitchen is *really* stocked now!
With heavy things. Like soup. And porter beer. (Well, actually, no. I drank the six pack already.)
I liked that they allowed you to jot notes down to your personal shopper for each item. Prior to check out you're also given the choice of what to do if the store is out of an item. A) same type of item, different brand B) same item, different size C) no substitution. (I think I have that right.)
Additionally, coupons can be applied online. Neat!
The first delivery is free! Neat!
Setting a delivery window is painless. My driver was exactly on time during his scheduled window. He was incredibly polite, delightfully pleasant, charming and witty, despite having carried rocks up to my second floor apartment. Tipping is not accepted, however you can call in and provide feedback via the customer service line.
My only gripe with the process is there is no option to view items in a grid. Shopping could be streamlined if more items could be viewed on screen.
Thanks Safeway!
