Goodbye Waldbaums 296!!

[@HplusG]

This was my store. It's amazing how you can feel such a deep sadness for a place, when at the end of the day its just a place. But it was so special, very old school Bensonhurst, very iconic with the D train passing by in the background, so Brooklyn, a real slice of real New York gone. Thanks for the video.

That was seriously well-done. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun at work and that will make it a great job...try to bring that fun with you wherever you work!

I remember I use to live 4 blocks away from Waldbaums.

[@janepiepes2243]

I lived 1 block away from the Waldbaum's in the '60s and 70s as a kid. Man was it difficult to shop there ... ! but I still love it - looking back.

I looked just like the Guy at "7:16" in 1972 , 38 years Full time Dairy , Julia & Ira Waldbaum used to come in the store Ira didn't like my hair . I wish our store did a video . Very Sad to watch .

[@peterbu2817]

I remember walking to Waldbaums with my mother pulling a shopping cart behind us Loading it with weekly groceries in flushing NY

[@StephWinter1289]

I really cried watching this though! 😭

This video is a real tear jerker. I worked for Waldbaums 241 in north patchogue. Luckily we were bought by King Kullen. We're all happy again with King Kullen just like we were with Waldbaums. But we got lucky. A lot of stores didn't get bought and people are out of work. I feel bad for each and every one of them. Hopefully they all find something. Btw did you or any of your coworkers of this Waldbaums find work since your store closed?

[@teresalobiondo4474]

+Ryan Kalata Good for you guys at King Kullen very happy for all of you and some people have found jobs other haven't but we are all looking.

Very sad what happened here. I worked for Waldbaums for 13 years, started as a grocery clerk at 16 years old and left a Co Manager. I never worked for a company with such a sense of family even as a non union manager in my later years. The other companies can say what they will, but how many grocery stores were in business for 110 years (Waldbaums) or 156 years (A&P).

[@KevRalph]

my earliest memories was my mom taking me to wallbaums once a week in Staten island.

[@broward123]

I'll never forget Waldbaums! 💚🥰

[@ParkerPlaza]

A&P should not have owned anything !!!

[@cartooncat9115]

Remember watching this when I was younger I'm 13 and I cried over pathmark I had good memories 😞😞

[@FORZZASICILIA]

I worked at store number 295.

[@MelissaServicePack7Lucky7]

What town is this store in? I haven't been in Waldbaums since I was a teenager I think. I remember shopping there with my grandparents when I was a kid, back in the 80's.

[@miket8223]

296 was in Brooklyn

[@andrewfernandez4609]

if julia and ira was still alive it would still open.

[@ParkerPlaza]

More than likely !!!!!!!!!

[@RapFanatic4ever]

I remember Waldheim’s when I was a kid

[@robertpresar9970]

[@ruthlessawesomenees1204]

A&P You should not own PathMark!

[@ruthlessawesomenees1204]

Pathmark closed because a&p ruined it!

[@jamesfrancistamburojr8180]

[@ruthlessawesomenees1204]

This store had bankruptcy?
