This store still has its black metal carts, not having switched back to the old plastic ones like quite a few stores around here inexplicably have. However, it many of them are actually old Albertsons models instead of the newer Safeway ones that were here when I used to shop here -- in fact, at least one of them still has an Albertsons cart handle (the odd off-green colored one here -- the blue one is actually just wrapped in painter's tape for some reason). The ones on the left are the newer model, with fixed upper baskets and good cupholders; the ones on the right are the Albertsons model, with folding upper baskets and near-useless cupholders.
If this is anything to go by, I don't want to see the inside
ReplyDeleteJust wait, it gets better... (And this is much better than most Seattle Safeways, or grocery stores in general, for cart selection! They seem to have trouble keeping carts from wandering off... another consequence of our well-publicized housing crisis I guess.)
DeleteHopefully it will. I seen some recent Safeway remodels and they look nice. Hope this store will too.
