While Albertsons itself might be mostly in western states, the parent company owns plenty of other chains in other states, e.g. Safeway or Jewel-Osco. These chains all run the same promotions, carry the same generic brands, etc.

Thanks. I didn't realize that the parent company of Safeway had gobbled up Albertsons as well. Good to know.

It was actually the other way around. :)
