Safeway
Safeway makes no effort to order what you want to buy - Odwalla Bars, Talenti Gelato, organic food (including meat)

For months I have been driving to various Safeway s in Berkeley, Oakland, Orinda, San Leandro - anywhere I see one, I pull over to see if they have the items I want. One item I want in bulk is the Odwalla bar - Sweet and Salty Almond. The store on College Avenue in the Rockridge area always had them for me, but they are being bulldozed in a week. There is a gelato by Talenti I want - but they only get mostly one flavor that I don't care for. The list goes on - and no manager is ever able to help, saying "We have to take what they give us." Well I have discovered Amazon.com for everything but the gelato. You pay one shipping fee at the beginning of the year and you can order whatever you want without paying for shipping again. I don't have to drive all over looking for what I want. It is delivered in two days. Same goes for hard-to-find pharmacy items. I've been trying to buy local - but Safeway is not interested in stocking the items I want to purchase. And their vegetables look deader than dead. Between Amazon and farmers markets, who needs Safeway?
