But boy, do I wish that Safeway would prioritize the featureset of their website better... specifically, they need to prioritize "Stuff KC wants" at the top. Their search engine - i.e. the way I find 90% of the things I'm looking for when shopping for groceries online - tries to be smart. It shouldn't.

I looked for 'tropicana' and it found me lots of items with 'tropical' in them. I really don't need stemming for brand names.

I looked for 'raisins' and it listed every single product with any form of dried grape product in them. Perhaps it could have prioritized based on product name length - e.g. put "Seedless Raisins" at the top of the list, and "kraft cinnamon raisin south beach diet cereal bars" near the bottom.

And for goodness' sake, I don't need Sounds Like in a grocery store search engine. I looked for raisins. I do not want RIESEN!

On a related note, last week I looked for "booty" on safeway.com[1] and the second hit was toilet paper. That's all I'm sayin'.

[1] Veggie Booty, in case you were wondering. A perfectly wonderful snack.
