$50 Safeway Gift Card Giveaway + My Trip

I headed to Safeway yesterday to pick up some items we needed and I wanted to check out their new lower prices. I was amazed at all the yellow tags I saw showing the new prices. They have tons of them hanging down each and every aisle. When they say they have lowered thousands, of prices, they really mean it. If you live in Washington, Alaska, Idaho, or Montana, your store will have the new lower prices too.

With this trip, I planned on picking up some of the sale items in their ad, the Kleenex deal, and I was also going to buy everyday items that we needed and a few things I needed for some specific recipes. I was able to purchase everything above for $48.68, the regular retail would have been $128.64. I saved $79.95, that 63% savings off the regular prices. Plus, I got back $3.00 from the Kleenex Catalina. I am very pleased! Usually, when I do my "I need things shopping" and not the usual "stock up on sale stuff shopping" my savings isn't usually that large.

Thanks to Safeway, I have been given 5 $50 gift cards to giveaway, so my readers can check out the new low prices at Safeway too. Today is your first opportunity to win one of the $50 gift card (The gift card is good at all affiliate stores, Vons, Dominick's, Genuardis, Randall's, Tom Thumb, Pavillions & Carrs/Safeway.

You will have several different methods of entry, the first is required, and the other ones will earn you additional entries. Please make sure I have a way to contact you, post your email address if necessary.

1. Tell me what you love about your Safeway store (or affiliate store)

2. You are a follower

3. You are a subscriber

4. Tweet or blog about this giveaway

This giveaway will close at Midnight, on Sunday, November 1st. Make sure you check back because I have more to share about Safeway's new lower prices and more $50 gift cards to giveaway.

Thanks, amy

Safeway is super close for me, love their sales !

Rebecca said...

I absolutely love that Safeway allows me to stack coupons! I can use up to 3 e-coupons, a manufacturer's printed coupon, and a Safeway coupon or doubler on just one item! The most fun comes when I stand at the register and watch the screen light up like a slot machine when the numbers just fly off after I slide my club card through! I always thought Safeway was too expensive, but with the e-coupons, it's one of the best places to save for my family!!!

What I love about my Safeway is that I get to give my favorite bagger a bad time! I say,"Watch out for him! He always breaks my eggs!" (He doesn't really) but he always says, "Hey! I do not!" and it becomes a competition! fun fun

Tammy said...

When I lived in Arizona I stopped doing anything but sale shopping at Safeway because their prices had kept rising. I now live in Illinois and when I first went into a Dominicks here I noticed the same high prices. However, since this new lower prices strategy has started I have found myself going back to Dominicks a lot. If only they would offer double coupons I'd be set!

I would love to be entered into the gift card drawing !!
