With new Everyday Low Prices, Safeway is more affordable than ever! And to celebrate, Safeway is generously hosting a $50 gift card giveaway right here on Bonggamom Finds. Read on...
I got my first taste of fresh cow's milk at age 6, on my first visit to the US. It was Lucerne milk -- creamy, delicious, and oh-so-different from the tinny evaporated milk we drank in the Philippines -- and I've been a Safeway fan ever since. When I first came to live in the US, as a grad student, I would bike to Safeway and squeeze my groceries into my little bike basket (the Safeway near Stanford is always full of students around midnight!). Now that I'm a parent, Safeway is like a second home to me. I'm always there, buying cartfuls of groceries or dropping by for one or two items we ran out of. Last year, when gas prices soared and the prices of basic items like milk and bread were dragged up with it, Safeway was the only place we could afford to shop. Safeway continues to appeal to this budget-conscious mom with their low prices and quality products.
And now, with their new Everyday Low Prices program, Safeway customers in Northern California and Western Nevada will enjoy price reductions on thousands of items. Just look for the new yellow tags around the store! I was at Safeway doing the weekly grocery shop and decided to take a photo of some of the new yellow-tagged items. Here's one of our breakfast staples, Life cereal, now with a new everyday low price:
We're also big on yogurt, so I'm glad to see that yogurt is one of the product categories that they dropped prices on. Other new everyday low price categories include ice cream, frozen snacks, cat food, pizza, refrigerated cheese, salad dressing, pasta, and frozen novelties.
If your favorite product isn't one of those included in the price cuts, or you don't live in Northern California or Western Nevada, you can still save big by using your Safeway Club Card. You don't even have to have your card with you -- I just type in my phone number into the card swipey-thingy. I like to apply the Safeway Club Card discount right at the very end, because I always get a kick out of seeing the total price drop, drop, and drop some more. Most times I shop at Safeway I save at least 20% as a Safeway Club Card member.
Near the checkout stand I saw this neat display that shows how much you can save using Safeway brands. $95 versus $63 -- that's huge!
Okay... NOW it's giveaway time! Safeway and Bonggamom Finds are giving one lucky reader the chance to experience the thousands of new everyday low prices at Safeway -- for even less money. How would you like to win a $50 Safeway gift card? Who wouldn't want a $50 Safeway gift card!

Thank for changing it! I'm not much of a facebook person. I am a Safeway lover, though! I love their green line and their milk prices are the best around here. Plus, that they offer store coupons and manufacturer's coupons, make the deals great!

My kids love the Safeway organic milk! Not only does the store have a great selection, but it's also in a very convenient location (down the street!).

I love the baked goods at Safeway. Their Boston cream cake is the best!
Since I would consider it "FREE" food, I'd get some of the higher priced items I normally wouldn't buy such as an expensive cut of meat or gourmet dips or spreads, etc.
Thanks so much!

I work right next door to a Safeway, so I'm in there almost every day picking up my lunch stuff. They have great deals on their meats, and have lots of wonderful sales each week. You just need to check out the sales paper.
I am a Safeway fan. Ours has the best fruits and cakes around.
We buy all our groceries at Safeway they have a great deli and they really do a good job in their produce section but one of the things I like the best is the 'day old bread rack' everything from canned foods to cakes are cheap.

I know that it sounds dorky, but I love Safeway's candy selection. They seem to carry the exact items and brands that I love. For example, they always have Brach's Bridge Mix in stock, and some of the other stores have stopped carrying it.
