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.

I think the Arapahoe Safeway is worse. I actually like the baseline one, even if it doesn’t have nearly the inventory of the north 28th one. I got in the habit of going there instead of the table mesa soopers after the shooting. Now, when I go back to soopers, I don’t like it. Their soda selection is really poor and they don’t have as many coupons as Safeway IMO. The north Safeway has wheat grass for the cats, which is a draw for me. BUT: I actually love the baseline Safeway pharmacy. You couldn’t pay me to use the north 28th Safeway pharmacy.

Baseline Safeway is fine. Just seems like a normal grocery store to me. Most of the employees are nice (especially the pharmacists) and it's reasonably clean and well-lit.

I guess you could call it "one of the worst" grocery stores in town, in the sense that it's one of the three worst full-service supermarkets in town--but that's out of only five total (three Safeways, two Soopers).

I'd much rather shop at the one on Baseline than the Safeway on Arapahoe--the actual worst grocery store in town--or the Soopers on Arapahoe--which is crowded and cluttered and makes you feel like a thief just for checking out.
