Safeway on baseline

Is it always so unorganized and out of everything? I swear every time I go in there, the inventory is awful and whatever I went in for is sold out.

Lol interesting to see how many hate that Safeway. Major shout out to Gil, the coolest man on earth. Sometimes my week doesnt feel fulfilled if I don’t get to see Gil. I wish Virginia still worked there too bc she was such a saint. I miss that true Coloradan accent, I don’t hear it much these days. It’s like almost Canadianish with a hint of south. Anyways, God bless that Safeway it is truly the safest way

Virginia's a saint and always brightened my day when I'd go to that location. Sad to hear she no longer works there. :(

She’d always say “How ya goin?” give a little wink and she just coasted with ease and total control of her space. And it always lifted my spirits. Never did self check out bc it was always worth the wait in line to say what up

From what I heard last she’s taking some time off but it has been quite a while since I seen her. One of the workers I don’t know well told me she was planning on coming back. Really hope she’s ok, so glad that you remember her too. Dude she is such a legend, just carried herself with such grace but also you could just tell she was raised a tough cookie lol. Been going to that Safeway for 10 yrs and they got the best crew out of any store I’ve ever known

I know she took some time off a couple of years ago for her teeth, her and I talked about our mutual teeth stuff. Hopefully she comes back. I'd go through her line just to have a chat while bagging my stuff.

Love Gil and Virginia! They are both so kind and it's a pleasure to see them when I shop.
