I imagine liquor stores that sell pull-tabs. I'm unaware of stores dedicated to selling pull-tabs but there are a lot of corner liquor stores that are more or less frequented by people purchasing pull-tabs and cigarettes more than anything else.

You can buy these in most newsagents, and as far as i know there aren't dedicated shops for them.

There are indeed dedicated stores for selling them in some areas. It probably varies by state.
