You're not alone in this experience.  You might want to think about mail order.
I realize that some people have had terrible experiences, but there are two
or three mail order companies (i.e., Mac Connection) that have excellent
reputations and that carry large stocks.

Demos are a problem with mail order.  Many vendors, however, will sell you
a demo version for say, $10.  Another alternative is to rent the software
from one of the rental outfits before you buy.  If you decide to keep the
package, the rental usually applies to the purchase price.
