| - This is the absolute worst grocery store I have ever been to, and based on how scary dead it is inside, I'm not the only one who feels this way.
First, the ad. Nobody seems to have a copy of the weekly ad in the store, which is perfectly fine because as it turns out they do not actually stock ad items. Try finding bacon or any other staple when it's on sale. Nope. Not at this Albertson's.
Now, the staff. Oh, that's right, they don't have any. Just one checkout person at any time of the day, and nobody else to be found. I get it, this place is dead, but my god do they need additional checkout people. Because...
Everyone in here, from customers to employees, is a zombie. I'm not exaggerating. Slow, extremely slow people shop here. Coupon fumblers, elderly escapees, the insane, the confused, hobblers, awkwardly gated people, you can find them all clustered right here in this store. If you only have a couple items to get and want to checkout fast, god help you.
Now look how insanely busy the Fry's a half mile up the street is. You'd think some of them would spill over here since Fry's is so busy. Nope! They wouldn't set foot in here. This location definitely caters to a certain special niche... the one to avoid at all costs.
Here's a true but funny story about my very first time stepping foot in this place. 2 minutes in, we all hear sirens. We go outside, and there's a gun wielding man dressed in a Superman costume in the parking lot. The helicopter spotlighted him, and there he stood in all his glory, gun in one hand and a bag in the other, his cape flowing ever so softly in the gentle wind, and he wet himself before being taken down by a bean bag projectile.
