I use rockauto.com, my local stores don't carry any rotary plugs either. Usually get delivered in a day or two, never had a problem with anything from them.

Any parts store can order them. Get wagner brake pads from advance and the spark plugs. It will take a day at most to usually get the plugs. I haven't seen any store that actually "carries" them on hand.

for sparkplugs, most stores carry them, but some dont have them in stock and they have to order them, which takes like a day or so.
When I get spark plugs I just go to the local mom and pops auto store since they sometimes have it and when they dont, it only takes an hour or two for them to ship it from their warehouse.
As for brake pads, pads from Pepboys, napa and such are fine. But if you want more performance out of the, normally you would have to order them online through mazdatrix, or tirerack.
