GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Give your notes a connection to a familiar chapter of American retail history. Rite Aid began in Scranton in 1962 as Thrift D Discount Center, then adopted the Rite Aid name when it became a public company in 1968. Over the following decades, acquisitions and expansion made the chain a fixture in communities across the country. Its recent bankruptcy filings and departure from physical pharmacies mark a striking transition. This spiral notebook suits collectors, former customers, and anyone drawn to the stories behind well-known brands.
Rite Aid began as Thrift D Discount Center, founded by Alex Grass in Scranton, Pennsylvania, on September 12, 1962. The chain expanded into five more states by 1965 and adopted the Rite Aid name when it went public in 1968. It moved to the New York Stock Exchange in 1970 and grew through regional acquisitions, including Read's Drug Store in 1977 and Gray Drug in 1987. A 1996 purchase of the West Coast chain Thrifty PayLess brought the company to 1,000 additional stores. In 2007, Rite Aid acquired the U.S. business of Jean Coutu Group, including Eckerd and Brooks stores, converting those banners to Rite Aid. The chain reached 5,059 stores in 2008. A proposed 2015 merger with Walgreens was abandoned; in 2018, Walgreens instead purchased 1,932 locations. Rite Aid filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October 2023, emerged as a privately held company in September 2024, and filed again in May 2025, intending to sell its assets and close or sell its remaining pharmacies. By October 2025, its remaining stores had closed. Trademark ownership later passed to an unrelated Rite Aid LLC, which relaunched the name as a web-based blood screening business.
