Safeway Weekly Ad - Maximize Savings

Did you know that Safeway is one of the biggest grocery store chains in the United States? With more than 1,700 stores, they have a lot of work to do to keep up with all the different weekly ads they publish. The Safeway weekly ad comes out midweek, but they often also publish a mini weekend ad to draw even more shoppers in and help customers maximize their savings.

Various regions of Safeway publish their weekly ad on different days. The most common days for the Safeway weekly ad to start are Wednesday and Thursday. In case you miss the ad in your mail or newspaper, it is always possible to view the Safeway weekly ad online. The website for viewing the ad is at safeway.com and all you need to know is the zip code or city name for your nearest Safeway.

It is important to remember when shopping the Safeway advertisements, that a "Club Card" will be necessary to take advantage of the sales. Without a "Club Card" membership, you could end up spending an extra 20% or more on your grocery bill! All you have to do is let the cashier scan your "Club Card" each time you shop and the savings are automatically deducted from your total purchase price. The bottom of your receipt will tell you how much you saved on that trip and the numbers can be exciting! The "Club Card" is also good for shopping the Safeway weekly advertisement online via their home grocery deliver service (in limited areas).

Another point to remember about the Safeway weekly circular is that buy one get free sale items are not half-price sales like you might find in other grocery store chains. Safeway requires that each customer buy two of any buy one get one free items in order to take advantage of the weekly advertisement sale price.

Something else to keep in mind when trying to save money on the items in the Safeway weekly ad is that you may not use a coupon on the free item in a buy one get one free sale. While some grocery store chains let you do this, Safeway is not one of them.
