I was just down at my local Michaels, to use my 40% off coupon, and discovered something tragic.
They didn't have any rocket kits.
Not only did they not have any kits, they only had A3-10T's. But then I saw the sign:
"CLEARANCE"
The 4-packs of those little motors were marked DOWN from $6.99 to $3.00. So I cleaned out their stock of those, and mentioned to the cashier that I was sorry to see them no longer carrying the rocket stuff. They had only started selling it a few months ago, and even then only 2 of the smaller Estes kits. The cashier said that they weren't selling well. Go figure, when a 4-pack of A3-10T's was marked at $6.99!
So now I'm left, once again, with nobody in my end of the county who even sells ANYthing rocketry-related.
'Tis a sad day, indeed.
