The last time I went to Radio Shack was to get small fuse for my garage door opener. The clerk pointed me toward a stand with about 30 drawers and said “I know there’s one in there if you can find it.” I found it.

But I don’t understand how they can stay in business selling fuses. I’ll bet the cost of paper receipts on most of their purchases cost more than the item being purchased.

Lucky you. I went to Radio Shack to replace a 1/2 amp slo-blo fuse for a guitar amplifier that blew out. They didn't have it and I had to order it online (where countless vendors carried it).

If you can't get a simple fuse at Radio Shack, what good are they for?
