fjtorres probably listed ALL of my main sources by mail.
I also belonged? to 2 record clubs, a (open reel) Quad Tape club.
Mail order was King. Especially in rural areas not big enough to support malls.

Speaking of Malls. Many of the ones built in the 70's have failed, are even GONE (torn down). I find it interesting that some of the ones from BEFORE then, are still thriving (at least, in the SF Bay area)
