A lot of the towns were pretty small.

My "neighborhood" store was on the end of town near Pittsfield, right in with some subdivisions, and a couple hundred yards from a park that was used for little league.
There was another that had them a couple streets over from school but I only went there once or twice.
K mart had a vending machine, and another chain had rack packs usually in a 4x4 display just piled loose. Mom found me a Hank Aaron card there that I really wanted in 74.

The smaller towns - not like Dalton was huge or anything, may not have had much since the stores were pretty far away from where kids would usually be.
