Lucky Supermarkets (1988) commercial

[MrMarkhenry57]

My albertsons in my area used to be a lucky when I was a kid

Lucky sounds better

Like albertsons

Who the hell is Albert lol

I hope here in southern California we get lucky stores again

I still see a lucky truck n some private property area every time I come to visit my grandparents

Brings memories

[calif1mc]

All the Albertson's here in NorCal are now Lucky again. SaveMart bought the Albertson's stores in NorCal, and renamed Albertson's Lucky and Food4Less to FoodMaxx.

[kxmode]

They do it for real!

[olflatop]

Luckys! Totally forgot about that.....wow

[vegas787]

In Vegas, Lucky supermarkets were king... miss those stores!

[herbyverstink]

Luckys was the low price leader.

[JQUiK84]

they came back they dont like the name albertsons any more

[crazyguy1913]

Oh and a computer back then could tell you this lol

[MattTheSaiyan]

@crazyguy1913 I have an Apple 2c from 1984 that could do that kind of stuff.

[rexxdexx]

I shop at winco and it gives

Stater Bros a run for it money

[PetePuma00]

Yay! Lucky supermarket. 9 cents for a store brand soda, and 10 cents for a candy bar when I was a kid.

[mattagogo]

Stephanie Edwards!

[bunnasoo2]

Ah, yes, I remember when there were more than two supermarket chains.

[ZoolTool]

Still true in other parts of the country.

[raichu06]

Better than only having one where I live =[ Damn HEB only grocery store in South Texas!

[loveisok]

hi

there was a lucky commercial where they had this guy named mr fazio(mr fazio refuses to be undersold was a tune on the commercial)

[DJRckwl]

loveisok,

I've been wanting to find that old jingle myself.

I remember it from the 70's in Ohio.

I'm not going to sing it, but here's an idea of how it went.

"Mr. Fazio refuses to be.....Undersold!"

I'm hoping people recognize it from the pause I put in before the word "Undersold"

And I hope someone will post the song one day, if they have it.

[coffycup75]

Omigod, Stephanie Edwards. This takes me back. Our Lucky's is now an Albertson's.

[recto89]

Well Here all Bay Area Albertsons became Lucky again. I remember this in the Bay Area Except the Competitors in the San Francisco Bay Area was Safeway and Pak n'' Save. This Had to be the LA Edition of Lucky's

[herbyverstink]

@recto89

it is.

[ledzep79]

nice graphics. I remember the lady lee products..hahaha

[the06bug]

Ah, Lady Lee... what a gal lol

[mbhfromla]

These type of ads, price fights if you will, no longer for two reasons, consolidation (Kroger, Safeway, and Albertsons practically run the west now) and the strike of 03-04 when workers united against the companies.

[cestevens100]

As a result of consolidation they all have high prices now, except for Stater Brothers. Ralph's is probably the worst of them, followed by Von's and Albertson's.

[TLAGT]

Are you kidding? You can't buy a bottle of Apple Juice for less than 4 bucks at Stater Brothers. Hopefully though we'll get a Walmart Supercenter.

[radicalnation]

Well. She certainly talks a good one.

[stuty1980]

Lucky's return is good, though i wished they still hadf all the bay area stores closed, albertosns was 5 minutes from where i lived, now, its a discount store ran by ross.

[idogcow]

Today's news "Lucky return: Save Mart gambles on revival of storied name -- CHAIN HOPES TO WIN CUSTOMERS BY REVIVING NAME AT 72 BAY AREA STORES"

[mbhfromla]

and who better than Stephanie Edwards to do these ads. For many years, she co-hosted KTLA's coverage of the Rose Parade here in Southern California. BTW, Lucky and Vons were pretty damn expensive, contrary to popular belief. Alpha-Beta, Ralphs, The Boys, and Food4Less were/are the ways to go.
