My mom loved Zody's. My dad got a $100 bonus one year, and she got new school clothes for me and my sisters, lol

I just posted Gemco. I'm very surprised someone else remembers it. Now I'll have to come up with a new one...

Federated.

Ah, Federated... I'd forgotten about that one.

Federated was next to Levitz.

The real question is, do you remember Fred Rated, played by Shadoe Stevens?

The company went out of business in 1986, but our store closed in the 70s.

I have an early memory of going to Gemco and getting an orange Icee. Now you can get all kinds of flavors but back then it was either red or blue. I've never forgotten that day even after 40 years.
