Sadly, Safeway \/ Albertsons stoppped doing  their Monopoly game in 2021.  <\/strong>This includes their affiliates like Safeway, Vons, Albertsons, Jewel-Osco, Shaw’s, Acme, Tom Thumb, Randalls, United Supermarkets, Pavilions, Star Market, Haggen & Carrs.<\/p>\n

There is a new Safeway\/Albertsons digital game.  It’s began in June & July of 2023.  I’m expecting it to happen each year around that time.  Win some great prizes now by playing Flavor Adventure!  Go here<\/a> to read all about it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What happened to Monopoly for Safeway\/Albertsons?<\/h2>\n

The Monopoly game at Safeway\/Albertsons usually started at the beginning of March and lasted for about two months.  However, it was quietly missing from their advertising in 2022.  I called their customer service to see what was up.  I was only told that it “has been discounted this year.” 2023 brought a new game called Flavor Adventure.  Updated information about that game is here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

NOTE:  All information below is for 2021.  Monopoly is not happening in 2022.<\/span><\/h1>\n

Do you need the app or cell phone to play Monopoly at Safeway\/Albertsons?<\/h2>\n

You can play online<\/a>, but it will save you from manually entering a lot of numbers if you get the Shop, Play, Win app for Monopoly in 2021.  It’s available for Apple or Android.<\/p>\n

You will also need to have a digital Just for U account to redeem your prizes.  More about Just for U here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How many Monopoly game tickets do you get?<\/h2>\n

You get one ticket for each $25 purchase, up to $100 or 4 tickets per transaction.<\/p>\n

You also get a ticket for each sponsored vendor product you purchase.  These are often tagged in the store or highlighted in their weekly ads.  However, sometimes you’ll get extra tickets and not know why.  My guess is that some store brands produce extra tickets, though they aren’t all tagged.<\/p>\n

Additionally, you’ll get a bonus game ticket for every 10 participating vendor products you purchase.  (Example:  If you purchase 10 qualifying products, you’ll get 11 tickets.  If you purchase 20, you’ll get 12.)<\/p>\n

During the last week of the promotion, stores are varying.  Some people are receiving hundreds of tickets for small transactions (extra are earned when redeeming prizes, so even for totals of $0!).  Others are reporting their stores have run out of tickets.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you’re really ambitious you can get two game tickets by mail with a hand-written, self-addressed stamped envelope sent to:<\/p>\n

What happened to the Monopoly game board & collecting pieces?<\/h2>\n

In 2021, the Safeway\/Albertsons Monopoly game will not have a physical game board.  Everything is kept track of electronically once you enter or scan in your game pieces.<\/p>\n

You will not be collecting pieces to earn specific prizes, as in the past.<\/p>\n

Each ticket stands by itself.  The prizes will be won instantly or through the Match 3 game.  But, even for the “instant win” prizes, you will need to either scan or enter the codes you’re given and the prizes are loaded to your card.  More on that below.<\/p>\n
