### Step 2: Sign In or Create an Account To view and clip digital deals, you must sign in to your Safeway account. If you do not have one, you can register for a free account directly within the app using your email address or phone number. This links your account to the Safeway Deals & Rewards program. ### Step 3: Select Your Local Store Allow the app to access your device's location, or manually enter your ZIP code or city to select your preferred Safeway store. Because weekly specials vary by region and individual store locations, this step ensures you are viewing the correct circular and pricing. ### Step 4: Navigate to the Weekly Ad or Deals Section Once logged in and located, look at the navigation menu, which is typically located at the bottom of the screen. Tap on the tab labeled "Deals," "Weekly Ad," or "Just for U" (depending on the current app version). * To view the traditional printed flyer layout, look for a link or button labeled "Weekly Ad" or "Weekly Circular." * To browse individual discounted items by category, select the "Deals" or "Coupons" section. ## How to Use the Weekly Specials in the App
Once you have located the weekly specials, you can interact with them to plan your shopping trip: * **Clip Digital Coupons:** Many weekly specials require you to "clip" a digital coupon in the app to receive the discounted price at checkout. Tap the "Clip" or "Add" button on the offer. * **Build a Shopping List:** You can add items directly from the weekly specials page to your in-app shopping list. This list can be referenced while shopping in-store or used to place a delivery or pickup order. * **Search for Specific Items:** Use the search bar at the top of the app to see if a specific product on your list is currently featured in the weekly specials. ## Troubleshooting and Alternative Methods If you experience issues loading the weekly specials on the mobile app, try the following troubleshooting steps:
* **Update the App:** Ensure you are running the latest version of the Safeway app by checking your device's app store for updates. * **Check Location Permissions:** Verify that the app has permission to access your device's location, or manually re-enter your ZIP code to refresh the local store database. * **Clear App Cache:** If the app freezes, clearing the app cache or reinstalling the application can resolve loading errors. * **Use the Mobile Website:** If the app remains unresponsive, you can access the weekly specials by opening a mobile web browser, navigating to the official Safeway website, and signing in to your account there. ## Verifying Accuracy and Terms Weekly specials typically run on a specific cycle, often starting on Wednesdays and ending on Tuesdays, though this can vary by region. Always check the expiration dates listed on individual digital coupons and weekly ad items. Because pricing and availability are subject to change, verify the final price at the register or during online checkout. For the most accurate and up-to-date policies, refer to the official Safeway customer service page.
