The 1960s was the time when the supermarket and department store were entering the mass market. Before this, shopping was done at a number of specialist retailers and tradesmen, each covering only a limited range of products. Much retailing was also done by collecting and delivering orders, a practice that is now returning in the form of online shopping.

∙ 10y ago50 years ago grocery stores were smaller and there were no supercenters like there are today. There were less convenience and processed foods and no microwave foods (Microwaves were not invented yet.) Frozen dinners were just becoming popular 50 years ago. Calorie lists were not posted in grocery stores and there were no self-checkouts. At most grociery stores, bag boys took groceries to the car and put them in the car for customers. Grocery stores did not have pharmacies. Organic foods were not as available in grocery stores like they are today and the variety of fruits and vegetables was not as vast. Bags used were paper, not plastic.
