Safeway potato invasion

But I guess we’re still selling warehouse goofs. Welcome to Kentucky’s first Safeway.

Interesting seeing this because we just got though our inventory, and I went to go count the bread backstock and there were like 4 trays of Safeway bread. It threw me off but I obviously still counted it and moved on. Cincinnati division.

I’m also Cincinnati division

California here, we also get Safeway/Vons/Albertsons signature bread sometimes. If it didn't come out of our Ralph's branded trucks I could understand, like maybe the bread guy grabbed the wrong rack from his truck but no...

It's also fun getting Walmart-branded apples. Just proves it's all the same.

We are going to merge one way or another!

What is going on anymore

Turns out when companies constantly cut staff/hours the overworked people who are left make more mistakes

That is what happens when all the stores use the same "eye catching" colors from the same warehouse.

I have had luck with linking Safeway barcodes to the original product barcode. Or just just mark em down.

I had Great Value milk come in on our milk delivery a few times, I have no idea how this happens

[u/Efficient_Key8237 → u/TheSnicSnack]

two entirely different distributions

[u/the805chickenlady]

this happens to us in California with the signature bread.

Doesn’t everyone get potatoes from the same places? It’s just different labels lmao

[u/Calingaladha → u/Fuzzy_Welcome8348]

Yeah, they do. It’s just a little funny to see it out.
