Default Where to get balsa...on a Sunday?

Planned to go flying, but the weather isnt on my side today. Is there any other type of place that I might be able to get some? Hobby Lobby is not an option, my town is only 10k strong and basically all we have is wal-mart. but the few small craft shops we have are closed. Does wal mart carry balsa wood?

If you have a Michaels craft store, try there.

Looks like the closest Hobby Town is
4418 Gretna Rd.
Branson, MO 65616
Phone: (417) 334-8374

They're open Sunday here but you might want to check before driving that far and get store hours.
