Definitely don't take your marital co-pilot with you if you go check out your local Hobby Lobby A&C. You'll go in for balsa and some exacto blades and come out with a basket full of stuff that smells vaguely like Grandma's house.

On the high side, the hobby lobby near my house has a pretty good selection of balsa and for a reasonable price. Just look everything over well as it doesn't appear they grade by weight, its just organized by size.
