Albertsons on Ambassador and Kaliste

[JMV JustMyView]

Hey, they supported UL better than all the other grocers back when. Now UL went with Super 1, what do you expect from them. I bet Super 1 in Baton Rouge ainÂ’t supporting us like in Lafayette though. In BR , you support Lsu or else suffer, here, itÂ’s different. Albertsons still has Cajun clothing, letÂ’s not give them hell for stirring up business.

UL didn't go with Super One. Super One went with UL.

I’m confused, am I supposed to reach out to Albertsons Communication Dept before posting my opinion on this? Even though I am the consumer, I should probably be concerned with their feelings.

Not at all. But you could worry about how much trashing here could result in no support at all for Louisiana and whether it is worth at. Everything has a give and take and in most instances an all or nothing stance has down sides for both ends.

Rouses is the official grocery store of lsu. It’s ridiculous that Albertsons offered a special for lsu fans IN LAFAYETTE but not UL. And then make up a BS excuse for doing so. Now the Albertsons on ambassador and congress has lots of UL stuff and they wear red on Fridays and game day. This is not trashing. It’s calling a spade a spade.

[CajunVic]

The Albertsons in Broussard got caught up in a short sided promotion if in fact they did what the little girl said. Cancel culture would dictate to never set foot in there again. A more plausible approach might be to see if the faux paw could be remedied for a business who has historically supported the Cajuns. Just sayin.

The Albertson's near Cajun Field also does a good job of supporting the Cajuns. They sell UL gear and wear red on Fridays and game days as well. I shop there and at Champagnes and Adriens.

Wait, are you calling me a little girl because I chose not to shop at Albertsons. I am confused, I called them out for not promoting UL the same way they promote LSU, not getting rid of LSU, which should be done in Lafayette, but I said I would not shop there again because they don't offer the same promo for UL that they do for LSU. How much would it hurt them to do that, in fact it would probably give them more business if they did.

It would hurt them none to have and equal plan for Louisiana, especially in Lafayette stores, and as I said it was a bad decision.

No, I was referring to the little girl that confirmed the positions of Albertsons.

As usual, your positions are well taken.

Question: Does Albertson's who has historically been a supporter of the Cajuns deserve to be subject to cancel culture based upon the representations of that little girl and your experience without giving them a chance to reconsider at a higher level?

Is that the appropriate penalty or would we rather use this instance to get better support, you know, hit while they are down and caught in what should be an embarrassing position on their part?

There’s a difference between cancel culture and choosing to bring your business elsewhere.

They should be given the money students spent at Alberston's/Johnston. That cookie aisle in the mid 70's was always barren as the Sahara late on Saturday nights. Thank goodness for Pit Stop Pizza.
