FreshPass® SUBSCRIPTION SAVINGS CLAIMS
FreshPass® subscriber personalized savings. Individual FreshPass subscriber savings are based on discounts to grocery delivery fees and redemption of benefits listed on the FreshPass subscription page. Savings are calculated from 6/22/2022. If you joined FreshPass® after this date, your savings are calculated from the date you joined.
FreshPass® subscriber hours saved Estimated time saved on a typical FreshPass order is the sum of the average in-store customer shopping time on a basket of 15 or more items (based on a 2017 Albertsons Companies survey of 525 shoppers on "Time Spent Shopping"), and the average customer drive-time to and from Albertsons banners locations (based on a 2022 report which mapped the distance between customer addresses on file and the nearest ACI banner stores where delivery service is available). For DriveUp & Go™ pickup orders, the typical FreshPass order time savings would be reduced by approximately 25% by eliminating average customer drive-time.
