We only had one car when I was young and mom didn't get her license for a few years anyway. I remember taking the public bus and then walking with mom to the A&P before getting back on the bus to go home.
Almost all of our groceries came from the small General Store in our tiny, isolated farm community. A lot of my clothes and other durable goods were mail-order from the Sears catalogue.
butcher shop for meats, other food items if prices were comparable then it was driven by who was handing out more blue chip stamps (often safeway if memory serves me). certain stores were one and only source for some items-men's underwear-jc penny, levi jeans- victory army/navy surplus store, tools/appliances-sears & roebuck.
