Automatic Safeway coupon clipper

safeway-coupons is a script that will log in to an account on safeway.com, and attempt to select all of the "Safeway for U" electronic coupons on the site so they don't have to each be clicked manually.

Installation and usage with Docker

A Docker container is provided which runs safeway-coupons with cron. The cron schedule and your Safeway account details may be configured using environment variables, or with an accounts file.

Example docker-compose.yaml with configuration via environment variables:

version: "3.7"

services:
  safeway-coupons:
    image: ghcr.io/smkent/safeway-coupons:latest
    environment:
      CRON_SCHEDULE: "0 2 * * *"  # Run at 2:00 AM each day
      SMTPHOST: your.smtp.host
      SAFEWAY_ACCOUNT_USERNAME: [email protected]
      SAFEWAY_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD: very_secret
      SAFEWAY_ACCOUNT_MAIL_FROM: [email protected]
      SAFEWAY_ACCOUNT_MAIL_TO: [email protected]
    restart: unless-stopped

Example docker-compose.yaml with configuration via accounts file:

version: "3.7"

services:
  safeway-coupons:
    image: ghcr.io/smkent/safeway-coupons:latest
    environment:
      CRON_SCHEDULE: "0 2 * * *"  # Run at 2:00 AM each day
      SMTPHOST: your.smtp.host
      SAFEWAY_ACCOUNTS_FILE: /accounts_file
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - path/to/safeway_accounts_file:/accounts_file:ro

Start the container by running:

docker-compose up -d

Debugging information can be viewed in the container log:

docker-compose logs -f

Installation from PyPI

safeway-coupons is available on PyPI:

sendmail is needed for email support.

For best results, run this program once a day or so with a cron daemon.

Usage

For full usage options, run

safeway-coupons --help

Configuration

safeway-coupons can clip coupons for one or more Safeway accounts in a single run, depending on the configuration method used.

If a sender email address is configured, a summary email will be sent for each Safeway account via sendmail. The email recipient defaults to the Safeway account email address, but can be overridden for each account.

Accounts are searched via the following methods in the listed order. Only one account configuration method may be used at a time.

With environment variables

A single Safeway account can be configured with environment variables:

• SAFEWAY_ACCOUNT_USERNAME: Account email address (required)
• SAFEWAY_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD: Account password (required)
• SAFEWAY_ACCOUNT_MAIL_FROM: Sender address for email summary
• SAFEWAY_ACCOUNT_MAIL_TO: Recipient address for email summary

With config file

Multiple Safeway accounts can be provided in an ini-style config file, with a section for each account. For example:

email_sender = [email protected]   ; optional

[[email protected]]       ; required
password = 12345                    ; required
notify = [email protected]     ; optional

Provide the path to your config file using the -c or --accounts-config option:

safeway-coupons -c path/to/config/file
