It is with any business that things can go wrong, how it is handled is where a business has the oppurtunity to make things right, that being said : I went to Albertsons , walked the aisles, hit up the deli, made my rounds. It did not seem busy but I stood in line for what seemed longer than usual. As the cashier completes her ringing up of my cart she then informs me that the system is down and cash tranactions are all they can accept. Well I was card carrying this particular night but was given the option of going to the ATM where my fee would be reimbursed. If any question was answered it was why I had waited so long, and now my wait is going to be longer because now I have to go to the ATM which had a line also. It would have served me better had I known this earlier , maybe as I entered the store, a sign on the door perhaps. That was not what happened as I suppose Albertson's went with the ' get them inside first' as that would suit them [ Albertsons } better, rather than the paying guest. I have other grocery store options and shall utilize them to show you Albertsons that I do not agree with the way that was handeled. Thank you and goodbye
