The Thrifty name and logo live on at Rite Aid, as Thrifty Ice Cream is still sold in the West Coast Rite Aid locations, both by the half-gallon carton and by the famous single, double or triple dip cone. The Thrifty brand of ice cream was retained because it had won several important awards in its history. Thrifty Ice Cream is also sold at ice cream shops around California. The ice cream is manufactured at the Thrifty creamery in El Monte, California.
Thrifty Ice Cream is popular in part because of its inexpensive prices. The Rite Aid drug stores have an ice cream counter that is built for serving Thrifty Ice Cream. The scoops are notable because of their unusual almost square shape.
The ice cream comes in several flavors. A partial list is: Cherry Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Chip, Butter Pecan, Chocolate Malted Crunch, Vanilla, French Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry Cheesecake, Medieval Madness, Pistachio, Rocky Road, and Mint Chip
