Shopper's City was a chain of seven stores in the Minneapolis / St. Paul area in the 1960s and 1970s. It was one of the forerunners of the "big box" store and included discount groceries, home goods and sundries along with a barber shop, pharmacy, dry cleaners and snack bar; it also featured a furniture and appliance department on the mezzanine, at one time run by the Furniture Barn. It was sold to the larger Massachusetts-based chain Zayre in the early 1970s and the Zayre locations in the Twin Cities market were thereafter known as "Zayre Shopper's City."
