If I were at my Folsom, Trader Joe's, I would be shoulder to shoulder with shoppers :-). The store was well stocked. Except for cottage cheese. I have found Folsom Trader Joe's to routinely be out of cottage cheese also. It is the best tasting cottage cheese I have ever had. I guess a lot of people feel the same. Additionally, this area, like Folsom and surrounding nearby areas, is experiencing a large population explosion. And I am sure it is a challenge to keep shelves filled.

The shop is set up in an interesting way where you enter through the produce section and snake around to the main shopping area. I thought this was cool at first but realized the way they have it set up to get back to produce you either have to go past the cash registers (which I think they don't want) or loop back around to get up front again. I typically like picking up produce last so it's on the top of my cart/basket so I ended up heading back that way at the end. The rest of the shopping visit was pretty typical and I loved the selection of items they had. I ended up picking up some cheeses, yogurt, noodles, and grapes during this visit. The prepared section did look nice, and if I hadn't already eaten lunch I would have grabbed something here. The staff member who helped me was friendly too.

this safeway is pretty much a homeless refuge. as i was entering the safeway this buttf***** by a homeless gentleman named enrique III. he wasnt very gentle because he left me with with a mix of crabs and hiv. this fine establishment had a wide arrangement of potential toliets and places to disprese my urinary atrractions. i slipped on a used tampon and the manager came over and mentioned pollitley to " not sue us " she precided to quickly grab the tampon scurryed off. a little while later into my journey, a little frail man persuded me with devious intent. when i finally encounter alien hominide he tried tired to sell me a weedwacker. in a panic, i proceeded to dischard my rancid bumb r**** fecicis at the man and his sick looking chuwawa. i had never been more insaulted in my life. i witnessed a man passionatly f****** a avocado in the produce section. when i inquired why the man had taken himself to this level of self pleasure, he assured me that was " preserving the freshly grown produce " for a eliquent and satifying taste for the entire family to enjoy. all in all, i think i took to much LSD last night. read more

I see that Safeway has pandered to the ridiculous and buckled under the saddle of overly political correctness and begun to close at 8 p.m. seriously, does the suit who decided to shut the stores at 8 p.m. really think that is going to affect the transmission of covid-19? Well, it won't... It won't affect the transmission, it won't affect whether or not the virus will be present in the store, in fact it won't affect one single thing other than it ticks off its clients and is a huge inconvenience. I'm sick and tired of this BS... want to get back to some kind of normalcy? Well, we will get back to normal when businesses start acting like they have a spine and can make make decisions based on what is right and good for their clients, not what is popular or what everybody else is doing or what some numb sculled suit decided at a conference table. What about the needs of the people? Life does not end at 8 p.m. and the virus is 24/7 365. Get a clue Safeway and stop forcing us to live in a Nerf world. read more

I like the items available at this store. But they allow the small shopping baskets to run out at the entrance of the store. And if you go get one elsewhere in the store they assume you are shoplifting and give you dirty looks and take out their walky-talkies the whole time you are there and alert the cashiers to give you dirty looks also. So BEWARE!! Also if you shop quickly they will treat you the same way. read more

There's something quietly comforting about grocery stores. At the Safeway in Fair Oaks, people move through the aisles with small intentions: dinner tonight, breakfast tomorrow, snacks for children, coffee for early mornings. The shelves are full of ordinary choices that shape everyday life. Shopping here reminded me how simple routines keep a week moving forward. read more

Its always well stocked, very clean and competitively priced for the area. The majority of the employees are very friendly and treat you like a valued customer. I enjoy shopping here, multiple times a week. I have held off on this review for some time, but i've had enough. Everytime I go in there is a specific employee who just treats me like crap. She will greet the person in front of me, being very friendly, as well as the one behind me, but every single time I'm there she's rude, shes short with me and seems like for no reason I can think of, dislikes me. Like blatantly, it feels bad to be in her line, but there is no other options most of the time. Today I came in to grab a few things and I noticed she was following me around the store. This is a first, but she was on me like a hawk. It made me feel pretty bad considering I spend hundreds of dollars here a week, which she knows because she checks me out in line all the time. Yet tonight I got the feeling she was almost insinuating that I was stealing. Whats odd is another couple in the store were actually acting suspicious, likely stealing, but she disregarded them and went for me. Not sure of her name because shes always rude to me, but she is the only black lady that works there. If you want to accuse me of stealing then just do it, dont follow me around, treating me different than every other customer day in and day out. I spend far too much money there to be accused of being a thief. No other employee has ever treated me with anything but kindness. Guessing its time to check out Amazon Fresh across the way.
