In Eugene and Roseburg, a two-page insert was in the local newspaper explaining in detail all the rules and instructions. If you had a Safeway card, and/or a UAL MP #, and how to go about registering. I've used my Safeway card from Roseburg in Kauai, Hawaii and California.
Some of the Safeways don't accept AMEX, so I'll use my MP visa. And I rarely, if ever, have bought any of the excluded items at Safeway. Allergic to milk, don't gamble, no bus system, and only beer and wine are sold in grocery stores in Oregon (you have to go to the state liquor store for the hard stuff). And with all the microbreweries, and quality wineries in Oregon...
It's groceries.
Too bad Safeway wasn't more like Fred Meyers, with one-stop shopping! I could rack up a lot more miles.
