Review from Julie E.

3/24/2012 5 Check-ins Here
First a nod to the previous whiners (I mean reviewers) with the exception of Emily S.
DUH! Gee Albertson's is expensive compared to Winco and Wal-Mart? I never knew! This is why there are other stores.
Personally, I no longer shop at Albertsons for anything except meat, and sale items. But I can say that the Vista location is clean, bright and well organized. PLUS I love that there is a Starbucks there!
If you are a couponer (I am) or just need a few things. this is a great place to shop. And a beautiful location to boot. -

As Boise residents are no doubt aware of the high prices here, this is more for the new transplants or incoming BSU students: if Albertsons was one of the cheaper grocery stores in your previous neighborhood, be prepared for some sticker shock here.
I grew up loving the Lucky supermarket chain-- prices were cheap, and the service and quality were good. Even after Albertsons bought them up, I still found Albertsons to be the cheapest chain store in L.A. What a shock to move here and see things turn 180 degrees. And I thought it would be cheap here given Boise is home to its corporate offices (UPDATE: used to be home as I've since found out. SuperValu bought the company).
I feel guilty shopping at Albertsons. I have a store within a short walking distance, and I only go there if I need to quickly pick up a thing or two, not unlike going to a convenience store (with convenience store pricing too). The rest of the time it's WinCo WinCo WinCo. They try to make up for the high prices with cleaner stores and great service. And in that they succeed for the most part. I also prefer the meat and some produce here to Winco. But only when it's on sale. When many of the items I purchase at WinCo are regularly $.50-$1 cheaper than Albertsons (even when Albertsons has a sale on those items), good service can take a back seat for me. -

Extremely expensive for a retail chain. The average item is twice the price of Walmart or Winco even basic items like bread and milk.
