I would at least call Interstate before making the trip. Unless they
have changed their policy, they have two sets of prices - one if you
order through their catalogue and regular store prices if you physically
go there. I wanted to drive their to test out flutes several years ago
and called first and found this out. I asked if I could at least drive
up, choose a flute, and have them send it to me, but they said (if I
recall correctly) that because of the higher overhead (personal
attention, etc.) they needed to charge the higher prices. I mentioned
that WW&BW didn't have separate pricing policies and they said that they
were aware of that.

The policy may have changed, but at least check it out first.
