We no longer have Safeways. When Albertsons bought Safeway they had to divest themselves of the physical stores in town since there were already 4 Albertsons locations. Polson still has a Safeway since it was the only one in town. If I'm passing through I stop for old time's sake, using the loyalty card a cashier in Ft. Collins gave me. The rearrangement is bad enough but my brain works differently to whoever does the floor plan. Tomatoes are vegetables, right? Why do they sometimes get exiled to the pasta aisle? Why are Monster and Rockstar off in their own universe instead of with the rest of the canned sodas? Aren't protein bars sort of feel good candy bars? Why are Ghirardelli chocolate bars miles from Hershey bars? I usually stick to the perimeter, veggies, dairy, and meat and avoid the endless aisles of pogey bait.
