  This Albertsons in San Clemente off Pico smells like the sewer pipe exploded. You can smell the disgusting sewer smell right as you enter the store. It hits you with a ton of bricks. I thought it was just a one off instance but after coming several times it still smells overwhelming of sewer. The smell gets worse as you approach the meat and seafood counter which makes me very concerned about the sanitation and health safety. I will NOT be shopping at this location because of the concern of the sewer smell. There’s no telling how the food is stored and if sanitation is being properly executed. I will be reporting to the appropriate authorities.

  Think about it, you can see how amazing THIS store is just by noticing the staff doesn't change, you then start remembering employees names and build a great rapport with. If it's a great place to work, it has to be a great place to shop.

  One of the things that I love about San Clemente is how it's a medium-sized town that manages to keep a bit of that small town feel. This Albertsons is great because you get that small town feel as you walk around. It's not huge and open like some grocery stores and you get to know the cashier's a little more because of that. Now to the reason that this location has the rating it has... I've never felt more offput, unheard, and disrespected by a manager before. I purchased something that was on a deal. I thought there was only one kind for this product, but apparently there are two. They were out of the one that was on deal and I ended up grabbing the other one and purchasing it. After looking at my receipt I saw the price and went to stand in line with the manager. She'd just seen me purchase this product, she had to swipe her card on the register. She grabs the paper as she had no clue what the deals were. And then she says she has to go back to the section and check the items. I was a bit confused because I'd already waited ten minutes to talk to her and she looked like she had everything she needed. She insisted she needed to go back as it was policy and I just said sure. She came back ten minutes later. Now I'm twenty minutes behind schedule and I have friends waiting on me. But, it was fine, we're almost all sorted. She says, dripping condescension, you purchased the product that was not on sale. You grabbed from the top, not the bottom. Now I'm confused because I had no idea that there two types of this product. But, my mistake. It's fine. "Do you know if you have the right product in the back?" "I don't know, I don't work for the meat department." "Well can I just switch these out for the correct product and get refunded the difference?" "Sorry, it's store policy not to accept returns on perishables." "So, I'm just stuck with this? You literally just saw me purchase them." "I can't do any more for you" Now, thirty minutes later, I drive up the hill to the other Albertsons and within 3 minutes if entering the store I have the right meat and the money back. I have no idea what store policy she was talking about but I guarantee you I will set foot into that store again. A five minute, in and out, trip to the store became a forthy minute, wholly unnecessary, debacle. I'll be sending a detailed email to corporate about the situation.
