Dollar General should just get into the Pharmacy business and take them all out
. Imagine having the prices and variety of a Dollar General with a pharmacy counter!
I believe that was called "Fred's" and didn't work out long-term.
Fred's was a fairly nice Dollar store chain. It was a larger iteration of Dollar General/Family Dollar, plus some stores had a full pharmacy. It did well, but was already in trouble when approached to buy Rite Aid. Had that gone through, the demise of both would have happened much, much sooner.
