Advantages: Money savers, Great variety

Disadvantages: 3 per customer

Once a week, commencing on a Wednesday, Safeway issues an offers leaflet. This is a way of saving pounds and pounds, by enabling you to buy items at greatly reduced prices throughout the store.

***UPDATE**
As from Wednesday 22nd August 2001 the free leaflet is easier to read. It is split into sections:
Fresh produce
Less than 50p
Frozen products
Home essentials
Health and beauty
New instore
Beers, wines and spirits.

The leaflet is now 8 pages long and still has great offers throughout the store.

The different Safeway stores have different offers within the same week.

For instance: for week commencing 22nd August 01 savings can be made as shown below.

Tetley tea bags (160) £2.99 to £1.49
Safeway lasagne (600 gm) £1.79 to 99p
Photo processing 1/3 off.

All in all, more than 100 items throughout the store are reduced each week in this way.
The only drawback to this offer is that you only can have a maximum of 3 of each product per customer.

Offers for alcoholic drinks are numerous.
Wines, beers, whisky, sherry are reduced this week, eg:
Bacardi 1 ltr £15.49 to £13.99

Some of the items on these offers are reduced frequently eg Mince beef 454grm £1.39 to 99p.

I definitely buy a lot of these products and am very pleased that Safeway did away with the ABC Card in favour of the weekly offers. I will continue to shop at Safeway.
