Product Details & Size Guide
GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Mark your bag with a piece of western pharmacy history. Thrifty PayLess brought together Thrifty, which grew from a Los Angeles retail operation opened in 1929, and PayLess, whose roots reach back to a Tacoma store opened in 1932. The combined company formed in 1994 and united hundreds of stores across the West. This luggage tag celebrates that chapter of regional retail, from the merger in Wilsonville to the changing storefront names that followed its 1996 acquisition by Rite Aid.
Thrifty PayLess Holdings, Inc. was a western United States pharmacy company formed in April 1994 when Los Angeles-based TCH Corporation acquired PayLess Drug Stores Northwest and adopted the Thrifty PayLess name. At the merger, Thrifty operated 495 stores and PayLess 543. PayLess traced its beginnings to L.J. Skaggs, who opened a Tacoma, Washington, store in 1932. Thrifty began as a Los Angeles retail operation in 1929, following the 1919 founding of drug wholesaler Borun Brothers. Its parent became Thrifty Corp. in 1977 as it expanded beyond pharmacies. After ownership changes involving Kmart and Pacific Lighting, Thrifty's owners acquired PayLess in 1994. The combined company consolidated its headquarters in Wilsonville, Oregon, and completed the integration of its store and warehouse systems. In 1996, Rite Aid acquired Thrifty PayLess and about 1,000 West Coast stores. The Thrifty and PayLess store names remained in use until locations were converted to Rite Aid in 1998. Thrifty's ice cream tradition, which began in 1940, continued in former Thrifty stores after the acquisition.
