Move to Canada. We still have Toys R Us and "the Source" (which is what RadioShack became here).

Yeah but the source sucks, it's not the same.

Even toys r us isn't the same they don't have game consoles set up to demo (at least not near me). But at least it's kinda close.

Yeah, you can't buy... anything that Radio Shack used to sell at the Source. It's just cell phones and headphones now. It was still pretty ass before Bell bought it, but at least it had, you know, basic things like cables and solder when Circuit City owned it.

yeah, don't enter "The Source" to buy electronic components or kits or whatever. IIRC it is owned by Bell and mostly sell phone plans.
