Radio shack has been a browse store for at least 15years. Each year seeing less and less real electronics. I miss laughing at the 1.98 blister pack of two 47 bulbs.
I have many fond memories of store though and a few really good deals on those browse trips. Usually on the manager clearance tables or just by talking with the manager.
I can only think of one time RS actually had a pin transistor that saved me from ordering online.
I think out of the thirteen or more stores in my area two are left. So I can still get my browse fix and remember days of free batteries.
