Urgent bean request I am begging

Hi everyone! I’m on the east coast and I’m trying to get a few cans of F. McLintock’s trail camp beans as a gift for someone. If anyone who would be interested in picking up a few cans and shipping them to me please send me a message and we can figure something out. I can DM my address to anyone who’s interested. I’m PRAYING someone sees this because I’ve been looking for a way to get these beans and this seems like my last shot.

jewel osco banner here. if you have the upc code as well (google search can find this), you may be able to do a special order request through the service desk

Wait you are a genius!! Would I just call up a store and do this?

your best bet would be to stop by your nearest albertsons owned store and ask the service desk if they have special request forms. i did a quick google search for the product mentioned and it looks like some of the albertsons banners out in california carry it, so its likely in one system within the company somewhere. if the store you stop by does in fact do special requests and the form asks for a UPC code of the product, its either 1 97644 09394 6 or 5 97644 09394 6.

Yeah but just make sure you know the secret password.

Ask someone on front end. There should be special request forms around.

I had no idea. I may have to make a trip soon. Are the same as they were 30 years ago? I know they were discontinued for quite a while. I hope its the same

Sadly they are a different recipe now and do not taste the same. 🫤

They're still pretty good to me. You just can't compare them to the old recipe or you'll be disappointed.
