  1. Just a thought says:

    Only a matter of time before this Safeway is closed. It is a haven for shoplifting and mayhem. The homeless trot in every morning for their booze-aisle fix and walk out. The lovely residents (I use that term loosely) of Antioch use it as the “pick-up” spot for all their needed essentials (and don’t pay). It is disgusting. I watched one guy come out with two handcarts filled – dump the goods in his car and return the baskets inside (so nice of him) I got the license plate of his car but without witnessing anything, Safeway can’t do anything. You all lost your Richmond safeway – this one will go too. Probably why ya’ll moved here and decided to ruin ours.
