3 mins from my house in austin, 15 mins from my house in east texas (there's nothing near my house there... walmart is 15 mins away... literally nothing near my house)

2 within 4 miles. Makes you wonder how they have so many. I've never seen a Radioshack that seems like it's getting a lot of business.

There was...last time I went in there I bought a circuit board for my EE class. It was like $6, and I handed the guy a $10 bill. He held it up into the light to make sure it wasnt fake... :|

I didn't even know they put those security strips in the $10 bills. Anyways, that radioshack was gone the next week. I guess the guy was making sure his last few $$ were going to be real.

2 within 5 minutes easy... one about 8-10 minutes away. At my old house, there was one that was a 3 minute WALK away, and two that were about 10 minutes away.

Yes. Used to be three, but one went out of business, so now two.
