The Brick home furniture store early 80’s in Edmonton Alberta, a complete AKAI system of turntable, cassette deck, tuner, integrated amp, with Hitachi tower speakers, and some cheap stand, all in for $1100 cdn dollars and no taxes back then added on.
As mentioned, Kelly's Records, A&B Sound, Visions Electronics were the places here in Alberta to buy records/music and stereo gear, Visions Electronics is the only survivor, but no longer has records, and I bought hundreds when records cost $7 or $8 dollars, onsale for $3.99 in the day.
