Perhaps the weirdest change in these super-deluxe mid-2010s refreshes is the ultra-fancy pet and baby sections that sit in front of the health and beauty department. I suspect Safeway wanted to leave sightlines clear to the pharmacy department, but pet food in particular seemed like a weird choice to be highlighted like this! (In Port Angeles, at least, the space in front of the health and beauty department was home to seasonal products prior to the refresh, which seemed like a more obvious choice for a featured department.) The custom category markers for the two departments are an interesting choice too, but I do quite like them. In Port Angeles, these deluxe aisles were swapped out for standard height and width aisles shortly following the refresh, but not here.
