Thrift Company was purchased by JCPenney in 1968, and was expanded greatly thereafter, serving as the flagship chain of JCPenney's pharmacy group. One enduring legacy of Thrift Drug was in the 1977 movie Slap Shot, when a Thrift Drug located in downtown Johnstown, Pennsylvania was shown in the background during a shot of downtown Charlestown (the town that Johnstown portrayed in the film), alongside other now-defunct retailers such as Woolworth (which still exists today as Foot Locker but closed their namesake chain in 1997) and competitor Revco (which was later acquired by CVS Pharmacy). Also shown was a location of Thrift Drug's nominal successor (through Eckerd) and fellow Pennsylvania pharmacy, Rite Aid. Due to Rite Aid's connection to Thrift Drug through Eckerd, Rite Aid, as well as CVS which also purchased many Eckerd stores, accepted JCPenney credit cards despite having otherwise had no corporate affiliation with JCPenney, In 2023, Rite Aid filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.[5] Despite Thrift Drug shutting down 26 years prior to Rite Aid's bankruptcy filing, Thrift Drug was still listed in the filing PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PRICE IS FOR FOUR(4) DIFFERENT NOSTALGIC FIGURINES HARD TO COME BY
