Caldor was my go-to store for buying albums new. Each album would have a sticker with a letter on it. H was for most new releases. E (I think; it could have been D) was for "nice price" older releases. They frequently had sales, and you could get H new releases for about $5.99 and the E's would be $3.99.
I worked at Suncoast at the mall where Caldor was an anchor store and even though I could get a discount at Sam Goody, it was usually cheaper to find albums at Caldor.

My parents used to go to The World's Fair quite a bit since they lived so close, thank you for the link!
I've played a lot of systems in my time, but never the Fairchild. I was born in '76 so that could be why, and also.... Atari!
Great post, cheers!
Thanks, it is worth chasing down if you can. I had some notions about it because of the unusual joystick, but I was wrong even about that.
