Is she going to ask her daily armored car pickup to conceal? Is she going to as the police to conceal?
I mentioned that stuff too. She has the mentality that it's different for civilians like so many others do.
I spend hundreds of dollars per month there. I go there because I prefer their meat Department over the one at Winco across the street even though Winco is cheaper. That store has been bleeding customers to Winco, and they just lost another one.... me!

The Store Director called me this morning. I specified I want this interaction in email, but apparently that's to hard for her. When I explained what happened she told me that she thought that in the state of WA it has to be concealed. I told her she is mistaken and informed her of the laws. So basically she told me after talking for a few minutes that Albertsons does not ban weapons, but they have to be concealed. If they are in the open, her staff has the right to ask you to leave. She's got the out of sight out of mind theory going. I asked her what's the difference? I'm following the law either way. She tried to use safety as an excuse. She said she doesn't want to loose me as a costumer, but that when I come in I put a jacket on to cover it up. I told her I would not do that, especially in this weather. Way to hot for that. She said she was going to do some research on OC in WA. I don't think she is really going to. I even offered to bring some pamplets to her. She said I could if I wanted, but would still prefer I CC. I told her that There are other OCers who shop there all the time and no one has problems with it. I even told her that I spend hundreds of dollars a month there. She didn't seem to care. I will bring her a pamplet later. Not like it it will do much though.
Albertson's is based out of Boise. One would THINK their midlevel poobahs don't buy into the bradyite nonsense.
ETA:
little googling found this:
Albertson's Llc Corporate Office | Headquarters
250 Parkcenter Blvd. Boise, ID 83706
(208)395-6200
Was that the store director for the store you shop at or was that a corporate director? Maybe if we all write emails it will get there attention

I absolutely do not shop/or even enter, any Albertsons...haven't for 35 years...MT Vernon Albertsons. Can't cover when you don't have a CPL, and I didn't go back then, don't need them, there are plenty of better stores that don't hassel you.
Even if they give you a written apology from the disgruntled "manager" I still won't step in any Albertsons again.
Never any problem with any Albertsons, here in the city. Never any issues with them in the Portland/Vancouver market either. And as a former manager for Albertsons, never had an issue either. Managers vary, managers come and go, you learn to deal with each of them individually.
Did you point out that she was violating company policy which is to follow state law?
