- GFG F3 days ago1.0This Albertsons location is my favorite store for me and my family, but recently there is a serious problem. There are people standing outside the entrance asking every customer for money to buy candy. If someone says no, they start mumbling or saying strange words. These people are not part of the store, and the security guard does nothing about it. Even my friends noticed the same issue. This behavior makes customers feel uncomfortable. I hope management takes action to stop these sellers or homeless individuals from standing at the entrance. This is a good store and it should feel safe for everyone.

- TLTerry LeChienNov 14, 20252.0The management needs to do something about their cashiers/employees! They are so rude, unprofessional, unhappy and act just miserable doing their jobs. What’s going on with Albertsons? I think I need to find another grocery store! Also, their ads are so confusing I feel like they do it on purpose to get us to make purchases at what we think the price is and then it comes up a different amount. Deceiving as hell! Here I come Smart & Final and maybe Aldi. With Aldi, there’s no crazy pricing on items, it is marked appropriately. Sorry, bad experience and venting.
- KWKim WyattSep 29, 20255.0Albertsons is a little more expensive than it's sister store Vons but it has a reat selection and you can save money here by timing your monthly grocery expeditures to coincide with their weekly specials. It is always meticulously clean and the produce, dairy and meats meticulously maintained. I like this store in particular, has a comforting homey vide for such a big store.
