Safeway Fuel

You gotta get your discount on gas somewhere why not here! plus they always surprise me w/​instead of 3cents 10 cents off my gas!

Every time I come here it’s chaos and there are at least 2 pumps that are out of service. Either people don’t know how to pull into a gas station or the way it’s set up is not conducive to function in an orderly manner.

S’ok

WTF?
I am an intelligent person. I have pumped my own gas hundreds, maybe thouands of times so the machine shouldn’t be so complicated that I can’t understand it, right?
I like the price for Safeway gas mostly– although some stations have a similar price without the 10c discount, I am a Safeway shopper and almost always have the 10c discount waiting for me so that’s not the issue.
Still, why are the machines unable to tell me what order to enter my Safeway card number, my payment and then pump the gas? WHY?

Pretty convienent for me to stop here. Hey Fellow Unilocal friends… I love Safeway gift cards. They are great for using on gas and groceries. I go here often on my way to work.

*shakes fist* Fool me once, Safeway…
Yesterday, while in line at the Roosevelt Safeway, a woman in front of me couldn’t find her club card or remember the right phone number, so I offered mine up. Jokingly, I said, «But I’m stealing all your points!» When she left, the checker informed me I’d gotten a gas discount from her purchase. (Is that legal? Or fair? Sure!)
«So now you have 30 cents total off each gallon!» he said, clearly impressed by my random act of kindness. «But make sure you use it soon, because it expires on the 30^th!»
As luck would have it, my little Ford Focus was on E, so I made a trek to Ballard this afternoon to the new Safeway Fuel for a cheap tank of gas. Except I came to realize (once it was too late, of course) that I was only credited a measly 3-​cent discount.
Oh well, I thought, maybe he really told me I had a 3-​cent and I heard him wrong. Except when I went into the little convenience store to buy a Fizzy Lifting Drink, another guy was complaining of the same problem. The woman said something vague about computer problems…
Bah. It was still cheaper than other places nearby. I’ll just have to go on a road trip this weekend so I can fill ‘er up again by the 30^th. This time I will DEMAND my rightfully earned (sort of) points!
