How about Safeway reducing the cost of their groceries by about $100M? A shopping cart of the exact same groceries in the DC metro area costs more than anywhere else in the USA except NYC and Honolulu (where everything has to be delivered by ship). No wonder the remodeling budget is so generous.

Didn't they just re-do them recently with the dark lighting so that you can't see the high prices?!?!
MESSAGE TO SAFEWAY: DONT REMODEL- LOWER YOUR FRICKIN HIGH PRICES ! I for one will not shop there anymore if you don't. In these economic times we don't want decor, we want SAVINGS!!!! Your salad bar price is higher than most, your Morningstar Farms products are so high, even at your "New Lower Pricing" and basically EVERYTHING in the store can be had elsewhere for less! I'm going back to shopping at Bloom.

I agree with the comment about the dim lighting. I hate the new lighting in the Silver Spring store. I feel like I need wear a miner's helmet with a light on the top so I can see what the heck I am buying. Dark lighting does not set the "mood" for shopping. The recently remodeled Giant store in Takoma Park got it right. They brightened up the store with excellent lighting rather than make the place seem like a tomb.

Daily Horoscope for December 20

Aries

There's a lot of tension in the air, with certain people poised to spit the dummy, as Mars turns retrograde in your fifth house of romance, children and speculation. Confrontations are likely. If these are nothing to do with you and you just happen to be directly in the firing line, your best bet is to make yourself scarce. But if you are responsible for their outraged feelings then you need to face the music, otherwise things will only get worse.
