Globe Discount City and Globe Shopping City was a chain of discount department stores that operated beginning in 1960. Globe stores were located in the Southwest United States and were operated as a "big-box store" retail arm of Walgreens for much of the chain's operational lifecycle. Massive financial losses led to the dispersal of the entire chain through a combination of liquidation sales and transferral of individual store locations in 1978. An independently-run Globe Discount City Store continued until its closure in 1999.
