Catalog Shopping

Does anybody remember being able to go to places like McDades,First or Advance Catalog stores or even Sears on Homan, where you were able to place catalog orders and wait for the orders to be filled? Memories of the anticiaption of watching the packages come down on the conveyor belts. No shipping no waiting for deliveries almost instant gratification.
