I Love Lucy had Phipps Department Store. You may remember their jingle

When we go on shopping trips,
Where else would we go but Phipps?
From the top floor to the bottom,
If it's bargains, Phipps has got 'em!
Down at Phipps your credit's great,
Ask today for a Phipps-a-plate,
First on your list of shopping tips,

Phipps are a great big bunch of gyps!
