The United Family Encourages Guests to Help Stay Protected and Earn Grocery Savings with Seasonal Immunizations

 

Flu, pneumonia and RSV vaccines available now, no appointments needed

 

LUBBOCK, Texas — United Family pharmacies are making it easier and more rewarding than ever for guests to help protect their health this respiratory virus season. Available now, guests can receive flupneumonia or respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) immunizations at any of the company’s locations that have pharmacies including United Supermarkets, Market Street, Albertsons Market, and Amigos.

 

Guests who receive a qualifying vaccination at their local United Family pharmacy will receive a coupon for up to $20 off their next grocery purchase. This offer is available to every individual who receives a qualifying vaccine, making it especially valuable for families who choose to immunize together.*

 

“Building lasting relationships with our customers is at the core of everything we do, and supporting their wellbeing is a meaningful part of our commitment to being a trusted partner in health and wellness,” said Anthony DalPonte, President of Pharmacy and Health at Albertsons Cos. “We are deeply committed to helping keep our customers and communities healthy by providing safe, convenient access to essential immunizations. This seasonal initiative is about more than prevention — it’s about empowering individuals and families to take charge of their health. With the help of our caring pharmacists and personalized support for immunizations, prescriptions, nutrition and overall wellness, we’re making it easier than ever for our customers to take proactive steps toward feeling their best.”

 

Getting vaccinated is easy and flexible with no appointment required. Guests are welcome to walk into any United Family pharmacy at their convenience, where experienced pharmacy teams are ready to assist. For those who prefer to plan ahead, appointments can be scheduled online via the store app or website or directly at the pharmacy counter. Most locations offer extended hours, including evenings and weekends, to accommodate busy schedules.

 

During these visits, pharmacists can administer immunizations including flupneumonia and RSV as well as additional vaccines for shingleshepatitis B, tetanus and HPV. Pharmacists are available to support individuals and families by addressing clinical-related questions, guiding informed healthcare decisions and offering consultations on vaccination history. Guests also benefit from free access to a digital vaccine record.

 

In addition, United Family pharmacies now offer new at-home combined flu and COVID-19 test kits, providing two results from a single sample. These kits help customers monitor their health and prevent the spread of illness throughout the respiratory virus season.
