If you live in certain parts of the country, Safeway might already be a household name. For many, Safeway has long been familiar — the brand dates back to 1915!

The chain has always focused on helping people save on groceries. In fact, the name “Safeway” refers to the “safe way” to shop: with cash, instead of on credit.

Now, you can use cash, debit, credit or whichever futuristic payment method I can’t keep up with at Safeway stores. Likewise, you have lots of options for shopping your way to get the best deals on groceries.

Get started with these eight tips for saving money at Safeway.

5. Try the Store Brands

As a longtime Safeway shopper, I relied on its house brands to fill out my pantry. Signature-label products are easiest to find, but you’ll also find a nice selection of O Organics and Lucerne dairy products. All offer considerable savings over many brand-name choices.

6. Switch to the Safeway Pharmacy

Want to pick up your groceries and prescriptions in the same trip? Switch to the Safeway pharmacy. You’ll receive a $25 Safeway store gift card when you transfer your prescriptions from another pharmacy or bring your new prescription to Safeway. Then, you’ll get a prescription stamp card. Fill five prescriptions and redeem your stamp card for a $50 Safeway store gift card.

Government-sponsored health care plans are not eligible for this reward, but Safeway does offer a 10% coupon to active and retired military personnel who show their ID card at the pharmacy.

7. Skip the Extra Trip to the Liquor Store

Last-minute trips to the liquor store before a dinner party are a total drag. Stock up at Safeway instead. Mix and match spirits and wine to save 10% when you purchase six items. Or look for buy one, get one free deals on select brands — you’ll be a wine connoisseur in no time.
