We have CVS, Walgreens, and Rite Aid and... I've never heard of this ice cream on the east coast lol, interesting.

Wonder how it compares to Ben & Jerry's

It's more Baskin-Robbins level.

I wouldn't think so. I see thrifty ice cream in the supermarket. Regardless of how many stores are open, that's a viable revenue stream.

Sort of like Marie Calendars restaurants. As far as I know, there's only a few dozen restaurants left. Check the frozen food aisle though and you'll see loads of their food in the supermarket.

I wasn't aware Thrifty ice cream was still around! I can't recall the last time I went to a drug store with an ice cream counter. Probably back in S&H Green Stamp days ... my parents would get me ice cream sometimes when we went to Skagg's.
