How do I earn Points?
It's easy to earn Points just by shopping at participating Albertsons Companies grocery banner store locations or mobile apps and using your registered mobile number or scanning your Member Card in the ACME Markets mobile app at checkout:
Every $1 spent on eligible grocery purchases* = 1 Point
Every $1 spent on qualifying gift cards* = 2 Points

Bottle/container deposits, sales, and other tax payments and bag fees, if applicable, are not purchases and are not eligible to earn points. Only out-of-pocket pharmacy costs (e.g., prescription co-pays) are eligible to earn points.
Is there a difference between Gas Points and Grocery Points?
No, you earn a single type of Points that, when converted to Rewards, can be used for discounts on gas at participating fuel stations or for discounts offered on certain grocery items from Albertsons Companies grocery banner store locations and mobile apps.
Can I use some of my Rewards for gas discounts and some for grocery discounts?
If you have multiple Rewards, you may redeem some or all of them in an Albertsons Companies grocery banner store, mobile app, or website for discounted or free grocery items. You may then use your remaining Rewards at a participating fuel station (up to the maximum allowable at that station).
Is there a limit to how many Points and Rewards I can earn?
No. You can earn an unlimited number of Points and Rewards during each month. Each month is a separate earning period; previous and current months' Points do not combine.
Can I combine earned Points across all Albertsons Companies grocery banner stores?
All Points earned at participating Albertsons Companies grocery banner store locations and mobile apps using the registered mobile number or Member Card, in the ACME Markets mobile app, are combined.
Do Points and Rewards expire?
Yes, Points convert to Rewards in increments of 100 (100 Points = 1 Reward). At the end of each month, any Points less than 100 will expire. Rewards expire at the end of the month following the one in which they were earned. For example, if 225 Points are earned in January, 25 Points would expire 2 a.m. local time on February 1st. The remaining 200 Points automatically convert to 2 Rewards and are available for use until they expire at 2 a.m. local time on March 1st.
How do I keep track of my Points and Rewards?
You can track your Points and Rewards through participating ACME Markets mobile app or website or by reviewing the receipt from your most recent transaction.
Can I pick up the discounted or free grocery item at any store?
Grocery Rewards may only be used at participating Albertsons Companies grocery banner stores. Discounted or free grocery items can be picked up at the participating store you have selected within the ACME Markets mobile app or website.
How long are the Grocery Rewards offers available?
Grocery Rewards offers are valid through the end of the current month. Once you select an offer, you have until the end of the following month to claim that offer in-store.
Where do I see my selected Grocery Rewards?
On the ACME Markets mobile app, tap Rewards on the Home Screen or go to the Member section. On the website, click on Rewards tab and View my Selected Rewards or go to My List.
I shop online. Do ACME for U™ offers apply there?
Yes, your current ACME for U™ offers will apply when you shop online, provided that the account you set up for our online grocery ordering service is linked to your ACME for U™ account. The savings will be reflected on your final receipt at the time of delivery or pickup. If you do not see your ACME for U™ savings reflected on your final receipt, or if you have any questions on this process, please contact our Grocery Delivery Customer Service Center toll free line at 1-877-505-4040.
What is the difference between unlimited and one-time offers?
Unlimited offers can be used in an unlimited number of transactions. One-time offers are limited to a single transaction. Some offers are subject to quantity limits, so please check offer details. All offers are subject to availability as not all items or varieties are available in all store locations.
For offers with a minimum purchase requirement (for example, $5 off when you spend $50), what items are excluded?
Excluded items are listed on the applicable offer description, but commonly excluded items from the calculation of minimum purchase requirement are: alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, fuel, all fluid items in the refrigerated dairy section (including fluid dairy and dairy substitutes), prescription items and co-payments, bus/commuter passes, fishing/hunting licenses and tags, postage stamps, money orders/ transfers, ski/amusement park/event/lottery tickets, phone cards, gift cards/ certificates, bottle/container deposits/redemption values, applicable taxes, and bag fees, if any.
How often are offers updated?
Offers are updated daily. Visit our website or ACME Markets mobile app every time before you shop to get the most savings from ACME for U™. If you subscribe to email notifications, you will be notified when new offers are available.
Can I use offers added to my account in any store?
Once you add an offer to your ACME for U™ account, you can use it in the store selected in your account when you added the offer. To check if the offer is available in a different store, you can change the store in your account. Please note that not all items or varieties are available in all store locations.
Once I’ve added offers to my ACME for U™ account, how long will it take for them to be available to redeem?
Offers can be redeemed at checkout as long as you add them to your ACME for U™ account prior to purchasing or claiming the applicable item. You may add offers to your account while shopping in the store; however, please note that new accounts require 15 minutes for activation. Sometimes a delay can happen depending on the quality and speed of your Internet connection.
What if an item goes on sale for a price lower than my personal price?
Our systems are designed to honor the lowest price for that item at the time of your purchase.
How can I tell if an offer has been added to my ACME for U™ account?
The offer will show as "Added" in your ACME for U™ Deals section of the ACME Markets mobile app. All clipped offers will also display within your Wallet section of the ACME Markets mobile app.
How do I know I received my ACME for U™ offer price for an item?
It will be shown on your receipt. In most instances, the ACME for U™ discount may be combined with other promotions, discounts, offers, coupons, and savings (if applicable) and if such combination is available, your discounted price can be found next to each item AND in the ACME for U™ savings summary at the bottom of your receipt.
What if I add an offer, but I don’t get that price in-store/online or I cannot claim my discounted or free grocery items?
There are a few reasons why this might happen. You might have purchased or attempted to claim the wrong brand, kind, or size of a product (like buying a 12-pack of soda instead of a 6-pack). Also, sometimes there are minimum purchase quantity and/or other requirements that will be noted in the offer description. Accordingly, if you do not purchase the required minimum quantity and/or meet other requirements of the applicable offer, the offer or the offer price will not apply. If you have questions, please check with the store associate at the Customer Service desk. Or you can call our Customer Support Center toll free line at 1-877-258-2799 so they can look into your transaction to determine the problem and to propose a solution.
Why don’t I automatically get ACME for U™ offers?
Our systems use your purchase history to sort through and organize personal price offers, hundreds of coupons, and all our weekly specials. But only you can determine if our systems got it right. That is why we ask that you select offers by adding them to your ACME for U™ account. As you add and redeem offers, our systems are improving their ability to sort through and personalize your offers. This will help us make the ACME for U™ program even more valuable to you over time!
Can I combine manufacturer and store coupons with Personalized Deals?
Yes, you may combine manufacturer or store coupons with your Personalized Deals offers when shopping in store, subject to terms and conditions of each coupon.
