Mine's not quite that aggressive in her support of my addiction, but she's pretty good nonetheless. She comes to visit me while I'm working on rockets and asks how they are coming along, and actually pays attention when I'm showing her my progress.

She's even hinted that she's going to get me a workbench for my birthday later this summer!

My girlfriend, when brought into the basement, pulled the "wow, thats cool" in such a way that suggests she doesn't want to hear about it again;)

Neither active support nor criticism, she's still a keeper:)

It depends on the Wal-Mart.

At mine, you'll find a small variety of Estes stuff:
- Several different RTF starter sets
- Several kits (repackaged as the "Launchables" line, but they're pretty much standard Estes kits: Baby Bertha, Fat Boy, #2 SkyWriter, etc.)
- A variety of A-C engines in 3-packs

But, as has been pointed out in other threads, it varies. If rockets don't sell well at a particular Wal-Mart, they'll stop carrying them there.

My girlfriend isn't into the hobby as much as I am but she thinks the rockets are really cool and we are building the Quest Icarus together. I took her to her first rocket launch in Manchester, TN in March and she LOVED it! :D She would always get scared if it was a D motor or higher and she would plug her ears (I tried getting her to just listen to it but she still enjoied it). When I flew one of my scratchbuilt rockets on a G64 she thought it was the coolest thing ever. She liked everything that was there. She it DEFINATLY a keeper (not just because she likes rocket but because she is the best girlfriend I could ask for)!
