K & B Drugstore Products New Orleans Louisiana

This is from my personal collection of K&B drugstore branded products. K&B was acquired by Rite-Aid in 1998 and the remaining K&B merchandise was sold off at clearance prices. K&B drugs was an integral part of New Orleans retail and one of the most well branded chains that I have shopped at. K&B carried different merchandise in every store to match their customers needs. Some of the strange items that I saw at clearance sales were saw blades, fishing lures and fishing poles (Keep in mind that K&B was a drugstore similar to Eckerds or Walgreens). A few of the former K&B stores still have not been remodeled into the Rite-Aid design, so you can still see the original colors inside of those stores.
