Back down the back

The back wall of the store is lined with meat cases - looks like this store has a rather large meat selection for such a small store. The floor back here is obviously in rather bad shape - I have to wonder how old it might be.

Note also all the Safeway-style promotional signage and price tags throughout this store. The Washington Albertsons stores converted over to the Safeway style very quickly after the merger, as well as merging their sale ads, something which is taking a surprisingly long time in many areas, with some still not having unified like that. (Of course, 20 years on, Fred Meyer and QFC still have separate pricing and ads; that being said, they are quite different stores while Safeway and Albertsons have always been rather similar.)
