Safeway Promo Codes & Coupons

If your promo code isn’t working, try this:

• Make sure you’ve already clipped the “Safeway for U” coupon.

• Check the date to see if the coupon is still valid.

• Make sure you’ve purchased the right items and met any minimum purchase requirements.

• When shopping online, remember to begin by logging into your account.

If there are no promo codes available …

You can try to use expired Safeway promo codes to see if they still work. You can also see if Safeway sells the same product under their “Signature“ label – Signature products usually cost less. You can also search the CNET site for coupons and sales at other supermarkets.

Combining coupons

Combining coupons at Safeway is sometimes allowed. You can combine a store-issued Safeway for U coupon with one manufacturer’s coupon. Make sure that your Safeway for U coupon says that it is store-issued. Some Safeway for U coupons are issued by the manufacturer and can’t be combined with other coupons.

Using online coupons in stores

Safeway will accept any digital coupon that can be downloaded to your Safeway for U account. When you shop in-store, you can also use internet printed Safeway online coupons as long as they have a UPC code that is printed clearly enough to be read by the scanner. Safeway does not accept photocopied coupons.

Public holiday sales

If your holiday involves a special food, expect to find it at reduced prices at Safeway. For example, on Memorial Day and the 4th of July, there will be reduced prices on meat for the grill. St. Patrick’s Day is a good time to get a Safeway deal on corned beef and cabbage.

Sale section

When groceries are near their sell-by date, the store manager may offer savings of up to 30% as a form of Safeway clearance. Look for Manger’s Special stickers, especially in the meat department.
