An Albertsons Miracle

I am in love with my Albertsons down the street. I've never been a huge Albertsons fan...not sure why. But, with their expertise in kid-friendly shopping they have won my heart and my moola. I don't dread the grocery store anymore...I actually look forward to it as something fun to do with Audrey...a miracle!



They have special shopping carts for those kiddies who LOVE to do things like push baby strollers and shopping carts at home. If your kiddie isn't quite ready for their very own toddler size cart they also have the giant cars attached to the shopping carts (two-seats with two steering wheels). Love the options!


My little customer in training...






At check out they have balloons ready and waiting! AND they have a free scale for the kids to jump on AND they have a wonderful quarter machine area. I love promising Audrey some .25 junky surprises...but not all grocery stores have them and I never can remember which ones do. Also...the quarter machines really are a quarter not a .75 cent rip off.



The end result...I have the happiest gal sporting her .25 cent sparkler instead of a screaming baby ripping open every snack and treat she can get her hands on. Albertsons has it all and I had to share this very important find with my closest friends!

That is one great find! So far, Harrison stays happy with the free juice at Trader Joe's and all the samples at Costco, but if we ever need to mix it up I totally know where to go! Thanks for sharing :)

Actually, I might take Harry over there just as a treat.

I agree, grocery shopping has become so much more kid friendly these days! Who ever FINALLY came up with all these great things to make us crazy mom's shopping easier deserves a prize.

Hi Amy! This is SO CUTE! Audrey looks like such a hip little chick cursing the store in her baby skinny jeans. She must have been loving life.
