"Blithely driving off down the road in some little
low-rent touring machine, showing up again in
something from an assistant buyer's sale at Zody's
...." (VL, Ch. 9, p. 155)
Zody, Zoyd ...
Zody's - (1960s-1986) Discount department store chain,

To those who don't know what a Zody's is. Well, it was
the first of it's kind selling far east crap cheap (I
think you could get a living room set made of bamboo
for a buck seventy from Taiwan)....
