To ask if they have something specific you are looking for without you having to physically get there and check yourself?

With products that are in high demand, you can even get stuff reserved.

I'm not even American, and I've done both of these.

And for some reason, stores rarely have an online system for checking inventory. I really don't understand that, because it's literally the main reason I go to a given store, and it's already digitized so it wouldn't cost them much.
