Add a note of Indianapolis retail history to a desk with this Ayr-Way sticky note pad. The chain began when L. S. Ayres and Company developed a discount-store format in 1961 and opened the first location on October 13 at Thirty-eighth Street and Pendleton Pike. Ayr-Way eventually reached 40 stores, then gave way to a new identity when the locations reopened as Target stores in 1981. A practical desk keepsake for collectors of local history and memorable store names.
Ayr-Way was the discount-store subsidiary of L. S. Ayres and Company, an Indianapolis department-store business founded in 1872. Ayres developed the format in 1961 and opened the first Ayr-Way store on October 13 of that year at Thirty-eighth Street and Pendleton Pike in Indianapolis. It was among the first discount-store divisions launched by a traditional full-line department store, preceding the first Kmart and Target stores. Ayres later operated Ayr-Way locations in other cities and briefly added food stores, but sold its food business in 1970 and focused on general merchandise. Associated Dry Goods acquired Ayres in 1972. In 1976, following federal antitrust concerns, Associated Dry Goods sold Ayr-Way to Stephens Inc.; the transaction closed in early 1977. Dayton-Hudson Corporation acquired the chain in 1980, when it comprised 40 stores and a distribution center. The stores were remodeled and reopened as Target stores in 1981. Ayr-Way thus links an Indianapolis department-store enterprise to the early history of discount retailing and to a later national retail brand.
