Why I love Albertsons...

I seriously love my Albertsons. I've been shopping there for years and I love the employees there. I've become really good friends with many of them and Trav and I joke that Wayne in the dairy departmnet is now my boyfriend. The other day he said, "Hey I didn't see you last week." (he's always waiting to tell me about the yogurt markdowns!) Every time we go-the girls run to the get their free cookie from Linda, and every time she always comments on how cute they are, I'm stopped by the manager to talk about sales, coupons and my baby bump almost every time we are there, JJ & I hold up lines by talking too much and really annoy the shoppers behind me ( now when we are in the middle of a conversation, I'll stand off to the side so JJ can still ring up other customers, but they still get snotty!) Mark is always in a great mood, Josie has to tickle Willow every time we are there, We love Hillary and share reciepes, Catherine is always talking about my stomach, Angie is always happy to see us, and I'm always talking about yard sales with another worker. I realy love it there. On holidays we take them treats and the girls pass them out to everyone- it's pretty cute. I know about their familes, their kids, grand kids, weekend adventures, marital problems- you name it. Somedays it takes awhile to get out of the store because we are always stopping to talk to the next person on the way out the door. I love it there. I shop there 3-4 times a week, and this is why- the markdowns! (and sales, and employees) I LOVE getting yogurt for super cheap because we go through it like candy. Wayne always points out the items on clearance and I'm happy to get yougurt for .75 to .98 every time. I did get the big 12 pack for $ 1.84. The huge cottage cheese was $ 2.12 and the Oscar Meyer lunch meat was .69 each. I love getting great deals for the family. We love you Albertson's! And we are thrilled that today is the first day of the Sizzlin Summer Giveaway! Hopefully we will get more free donuts, food, toilet paper & cash like last year!
