The closest Safeway depends on where exactly you live on campus.  The updates to the El Camino Safeway definitely make it the bigger of the two, but for Sterling Quad types it is a bit easier to run up than push through the campus or the Shopping Center on the way to El Camino.

Of course, distance is not the only factor.  The shuttles make regular runs to the Wal-Mart in Mountain View off of Showers.  Wal-Mart\'s alcohol selection will be limited but the pricing is going to be better than Safeway.  Costco sells alcohol too, and I bet a lot of students know the way to the RWC CostCo and the MV CostCo off of 101.
