Filene's opened its famous "Automatic Bargain Basement" in 1909, which became a much-visited tourist attraction. Goods were marked down according to an automatic schedule; an item that had been on sale for 12 days was marked down by 25 percent, after 18 days by 50 percent, after 24 days by 75 percent, and after 30 days it was given away. Famous for the Running of the Brides which was a one-day sale of wedding gowns, garnering local media attention because of the sight of hundreds of brides-to-be scrambling for bargains. The store stocked thousands of gowns for that day and marked them down drastically; gowns were non-returnable. Prices ranged from $249.00 to $699.00, marked down from retail prices as high as $9,000.

Opened in 1890 by William Filene, the store got its start as Filene's Sons and Company in 1881, selling fancy goods and women's ready-to-wear apparel. Sons Edward and Lincoln made the retail giant into a household name after inheriting the store in 1901.

Founded in 1841 by Eben Dyer Jordan and Benjamin L. Marsh, Jordan Marsh started as a small dry goods store in Boston and evolved into a pioneering department store. Renowned for its innovation, the store moved to its iconic Downtown Boston location in 1909 and introduced concepts such as electric lighting and the department store model. Over the decades, it became a beloved institution, hosting the first Thanksgiving Day Parade in Boston in 1927. However, financial challenges led to its acquisition by Allied Stores in the 1930s, and later, Macy's. The decline in the 1980s ultimately resulted in the closure of the flagship store in 1996, marking the end of Jordan Marsh as an independent entity, though its impact on American retail and the Bo
