I went to A&R Paints & Crafts on a Saturday looking for a RC helicopter. I really didn’t know exactly what I needed to get or really what I wanted. When I walked in the door I was promptly greeted by the owner who was very friendly. He asked me if I needed any help. After I told him I was interested in a RC helicopter he asked me several questions about what I wanted to do with said helicopter. After he showed me several model and options, he then let me test fly them. What kind of store nowadays lets you test something out before you buy? I quickly learned that flying a RC helicopter requires a lot of skill that I currently don’t have so I decided to wait to determine what I really wanted. I will definitely be back here to buy when I’m ready. P. S. during my research of trying to determine which route to go I discovered A&R Paints & Crafts’ prices are the same or better than most on-line retailers. This proves why you should shop local.
