Albertson’s is a grocery store chain that started in Boise, Idaho. Way back 30+ years ago, there was a tour train that would drive around Boise and show the sights. The guide would also tell lame jokes. One of them was about an inept hit man named Artie. Artie took a job from a husband who wanted to get rid of his cheating spouse. Because Artie was so bad at his job, he only charged $1 per hit. Well, old Artie follows his intended victim into the local grocery store and chokes her to death. He’s seen by two other witnesses and he chokes both of them to death. On his way out of the store, he’s arrested by the police a carted off to jail. The headlines in the paper read “Artie chokes three for a dollar at Albertson’s.”
We had Albertson’s here until a few years back when Publix bought their Florida stores......................
