- [R5] Safeway Deals & Delivery Savings!: Love to clip the weekly coupons in the for u deals and the point system that accumulates each purchase. Really helps with the cost of groceries!
- [R12] Safeway Deals & Delivery Good but…: I like the app, for the most part it provides easy to find information/products. I do wish the “clip deals” feature/function were more prominently placed, it’s not always clear if I’m adding to a cart (which I don’t want) or clipping the deal, pretty frustrating.
- [R71] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Greatest Move By Sam's Ever: Scan and Go as well as curbside pickup are the greatest thing Sam's has ever done! Efficient, Convenient and for customers who buy a lot frequently such an Economical time saver! Thank You! Well Done!
- [R86] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Awesome!!!!: Love the convenience of getting my groceries delivered 😍 a game changer for a busy person
- [R31] Safeway Deals & Delivery Worst App Ever: This is the worst app I have ever seen. It is cluttered, confusing, and full of glitches, esp as it comes to “digital coupons.” Useless, irrelevant popups appear which only tend to add to the cluttered feel and clumsy user interface. Absolutely awful.
- [R50] Safeway Deals & Delivery horrendous: this app is overley complicated too many screens with no logical navigation from beginning to end for the casual user look at amazon simple beginning to end hate this app
- [R81] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Loyal customer: Loved the app but had difficulty with the checkout; which never happens at the Sam’s store.
- [R98] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Excellent app: Super organized things are easy to find. I don’t know what I would do without my Sam’s app. Also, the delivery experience is always good
- [R16] Safeway Deals & Delivery App no longer works: Every time I try to log in I get an error saying they’re having technical difficulties and to check back later. It’s been days.
- [R60] Safeway Deals & Delivery Love the app hate that it glitches out: My app glitches out way too often
- [R67] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Back to useless: Way too glitchy always logged you out improves in one area and fails in others. Keep saying that I need to remove an item, but it doesn’t tell you what item needs to be removed.
- [R116] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Delivery: The app is fine, now I wait and pray for delivery ( which has been left at other people front door). I’m currently trying to decide if I should keep Sam’s membership or not. I’m in a state where theirs no club only shipping. Been a member since the 90’s. I’ve moved since the last review, app itself has gotten much better. Although I do shipping only with the Club it sometime reverse me
- [R2] Safeway Deals & Delivery Great app!: Items are easy to find. I always know before my trip to the store if anything I need is on sale. I did save a lot of money since downloading the app.
- [R49] Safeway Deals & Delivery Great savings tool: The app has literally helped me save hundreds of dollars over the course of a few years. I’m very grateful for Safeway being devoted to offering savings to our communities. I always share the benefits of the app with friends and new acquaintances. I really enjoy how easy it is to find and click savings.
- [R72] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Prices: Prices are to high but the membership is going up
- [R117] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Shipping Cost: Sam’s is great but the shipping costs are too high
- [R57] Safeway Deals & Delivery Great customer service: I shop at Safeway often and I am always met with great customer service, respectful and helpful staff. This makes my shopping experience great.
- [R63] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Reasonable to good pricing, shipping/delivered concerns: Rating generously expresses delivery of purchases. Fairly consistently orders with multiple items arrive with multiple items missing. Our porch has a small overhang where other deliveries place my orders, but Sam’s delivery has yet to place a delivery under the overhang-choosing to place the non boxed or protected items on the furtherest out
- [R73] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Incompetent drivers: They attempted to make a delivery twice first time couldn’t find the address second time delivered to the wrong house way to go Sam’s Club!!!!
- [R80] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Happy Member: I’m so glad to be a club member, I finally get to take advantage of the free delivery service. Now that I’m not able to go shopping in person, this service has come in handy and so convenient. Thank you
- [R93] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery Delivery fee + tipping??: Why am I being asked to tip at checkout… like I’m not against tipping but 1) no service has been rendered yet and 2) you’re already charging a delivery fee anyway (on top of membership fees and being excluded from 2% sam’s cash?) Can you just pay your employees instead of guilt tripping customers and making us guess if they’re paid fairly? I just opted to get the items
