3830 Georgia Ave, NW
“Dear PoPville,
Just wanted to share that rodents have made their way into the “new” Safeway in Petworth. Really unfortunate. I’ve reported it to the city but wanted to share with PoPville.
I was grocery shopping and saw one run right in front of me across the cereal aisle. It ran from one bottom shelf to the other. I was so shocked and disgusted that I just left my half-full grocery cart right there and walked out. I tried to tell customer service on my way out, but there was no one there. Also, I figured it was better to report to the city, as I’m sure Safeway must already be aware.
I moved to Petworth about a week or two before the Safeway opened. I had never been to the “Smelly Safeway” but from what I hear, it was pretty bad! I hope that our new Safeway doesn’t go down the same path.”
Ed. Note: The old store was known as the Stinky Safeway.
