  1. [R1] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Worst app in App Store: Quite possibly the worst UI of any app in the App Store! You’d think Albertsons could hire a competent engineering team to actually create a usable, shopper friendly app
  2. [R4] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US New app update awful: New app update causes the search feature to glitch out and not work without shutting down the app about 20 times. Looks like they have some bugs to fix asap. I will not be using their app or shopping with them until it’s fixed.
  3. [R6] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US Love the app BUT: whenever I try and clip coupons in store it ALWAYS glitches!! I always forget to clip and need to do it last minute before check out and it’s nearly impossible to clip all the coupons when it WONT LET ME
  4. [R7] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Buggy App: Developer focuses on look of UI over functionality. Make no mistake, this app and associated activity are used for marketing purposes. App has issues retrieving information, and errors out. The fix for this “service error” is to remove and reinstall the app. Coupon clipping (which must be done on the app, or face the wrath of the check out clerk) must be done individually, a custome
  5. [R3] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US Who’s in charge of ordering?: Generally like the store but they are always OUT of STOCK on everything!! Want fresh bread on the weekend? -forget it. I don’t know if I have ever gotten everything I wanted in the store or online in 25 years.
  6. [R9] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US Delivery problems: I love Albertsons for their prices and the people in store but I will never have anything delivered again. My first and most resent order was totally mested up. I ordered and paid for 8 family pack steaks which were supposed to have 4 steaks in each pack. Instead I received 4 packs with 2 in each pack. The manager was supposed to send me 4 packs of 4 for being shorted. Instead
  7. [R18] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US Missing items: I’ve had multiple orders with missing items. It’s not on the order, but it was added to the list of items needed for purchase. More recently the app has been dropping more items.
  8. [R21] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Always out of stock: Consistency is key and this app and its inventory aren’t ever correct so it sells you a product that is not in stock and this is constant with these people don’t even bother thinking you’ll get what you ordered
  9. [R13] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Grocery shopping through the app is difficult: I had to shop through Walmart’s app instead. Why is it when you search for something for pick up or delivery, it brings up every item but what you’re looking for?! I searched for “bacon”and the top results were SOUP. I don’t have time to scroll through 259 products to find what I’m looking for.
  10. [R23] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Terrible App: The app was bad before the AI update. Now search disappears. AI presents a list of what you previously searched for but doesn’t allow a new search. You go to home and sometimes search appears. When the items appear on screen and you scroll down the app jumps. You have to scroll back to see all the items that were jumped over. I’ve given up on the app and just go to the website now.
  11. [R16] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 2/5 · US If I could give it zero stars, I would: I consider myself text Savvy and yet this app continually frustrates me over and over again it always disappoints different sections with different coupons. Different types of coupon. Coupons to clip. Just make the app with a list to show what’s on sale and if you put your phone number in, you should get a discount when you’re checking out how simple is that
  12. [R17] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 4/5 · US Time-consuming, but great savings: Please add a “clip all coupons at once” button!
  13. [R12] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US Delays?: It’s great until they delay your dinner order for 2 hours!? :( :(
  14. [R22] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 5/5 · US Late getting order ready: I paid for the fast pickup and it took 1 1/2 to 2 hours. We sat in the parking lot for a hour waiting. I placed order and I have gotten it in 20 minutes before. We stopped about 30 minutes after I placed the order and sat in the parking lot for over a hour.
  15. [R29] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 2/5 · US Takes to long: Pick up time takes too long. Can’t be that hard to put it together.
  16. [R51] Safeway Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Now useless: So full of sponsored content that you can't find anything. Example: search for very specific like Ben & Jerry's Dairy Free. Says 9 results but wrong. There are 19. 17 are not matching and sponsored ads. Only 2 are correct results which seems too low. 90% is SPAM.
  17. [R52] Safeway Deals & Delivery 5/5 · US Great app!: Items are easy to find. I always know before my trip to the store if anything I need is on sale. I did save a lot of money since downloading the app.
  18. [R53] Safeway Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US WiFi in store: It is frustrating to use the app in the store because the Wi-Fi is not very strong and you can’t scan the barcodes to see if you’ve picked up the discount. That’s my biggest frustration. Thank you.
  19. [R55] Safeway Deals & Delivery 5/5 · US Savings!: Love to clip the weekly coupons in the for u deals and the point system that accumulates each purchase. Really helps with the cost of groceries!
  20. [R65] Costco 2/5 · US What’s happening with this app?: The app has become mostly unusable. Can’t look up orders, previous purchases or even shop without it timing out before opening.
  21. [R66] Costco 5/5 · US Costco online shopping: What a FABULOS way to shop big bulky items . Costco makes shopping fast and easy . thank You
  22. [R67] Costco 3/5 · US Buggy: When the app works it's fine. However, I find that it freezes quite often.
  23. [R68] Costco 2/5 · US Orders & Purchases Do Not Work: It’s a good app when it works. You can search items well. However, if you try accessing orders and purchases section from account, it struggles. I can never access it. 2% reward does not update too. Mine is stuck since last few months. Accounts section basically is useless for many things.
  24. [R79] Jewel-Osco Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US App constantly crashing: The app has been horrible as of late. My feedback and complaints are always ignored. I order for pickup at least once a week and lately, I have had issues with every single order. I’m trying to change the information for the person picking up and it does not send the email as directed. Then it doesn’t give me the option to change the car. Very frustrating. I’m just going t
  25. [R80] Jewel-Osco Deals & Delivery 5/5 · US Love jewels fruits: Great and fresh fruits
  26. [R81] Jewel-Osco Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US Not sure how it has 4.8 stars: A mix of bad WiFi in the store, deals that can only be had with the digital coupons and and missing items in the app can seriously erode the in-store shopping experience. Everyone’s walking around with their phones, blocking items to get it to actually work. I’m afraid it also adds to the digital divide. I can’t imagine how many shoppers can’t take advantage of the d
  27. [R83] Jewel-Osco Deals & Delivery 5/5 · US Great App with great deals!: Honestly a great well made app that is fast and useful!
  28. [R93] Vons Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Hard to navigate: I hope they can change to like Stater Bros. Theirs is super easy. At checkout you just put your phone number at time of purchase . As long as you have your phone number plugged in as a member. Please change yours
  29. [R96] Vons Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Horrible: Every time they mess with this app to make it "more efficient" all they do is make 10xs slower! Now it won't even load.
  30. [R97] Vons Deals & Delivery 4/5 · US App: The app needs to have more product pictures and better display of the product.
  31. [R98] Vons Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US Needs some improvements: Updated review. I either shop in store or do pick up orders. The problem with pick up orders is that inventory usually never aligns with current inventory. For example, I buy 6 cases of water, 10 of the same dog food, and 5 packages of fruits. All are in stock via the app. But the order either gets cancelled or heavily modified due to a supposed “out of stock” issues. T
  32. [R107] Shaw’s Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Terrible: Everytime i try to use this app instore to “clip coupons” i end up feeling like an absolute idiot as the clerk attempts and fails to assist me. I will once again be deleting this useless app. Probably wont go to shaws for a while. Thankfully the people behind me in line expressed the exact same complaint when I apologized for holding up the lind.
  33. [R109] Shaw’s Deals & Delivery 3/5 · US Online orders are going wrong: I got all support and it went to the app, but no support page. I have been using there app to shop since 2021 and I have never had an issue with any of those orders. Now, I have had 2 issues. A few weeks ago, items were missing and I had someone else’s items. Today, I got all my items, but received someone else’s order too! I have a small fridge and cannot fit a
  34. [R110] Shaw’s Deals & Delivery 1/5 · US Junk app: Absolutely the worst grocery experience I’ve ever encountered. Can’t get anywhere in the app. Try to go in as guest, brings me to location. Give it a location and it brings me back to login. Continue as guest and repeat. Somebody was sleeping creating this app and there was no QA. useless.
  35. [R111] Shaw’s Deals & Delivery 5/5 · US Love Healthy points: I love this shaws app much more especially this healthy points. It makes me being more active and shop healthy foods often. Thanks a lot for this option.
  36. [R2] Albertsons Deals & Delivery 5/5 · US Digital coupons: So easy to use. I love the savings
