The Administrative Committee and Participants of
Tandy Employees Supplemental Stock Program
Fort Worth, Texas
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
I have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition
of the Tandy Employees Supplemental Stock Program as of December 31, 1995
and 1994, and the related statement of income and changes in plan equity
for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Program's management. My
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform my audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides
a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Tandy
Employees Supplemental Stock Program as of December 31, 1995 and 1994,
and results of its operations for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994
and 1993 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
My audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of
assets held for investment purposes is presented for purposes of
complying with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974 and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in my
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAM
The following description of the Tandy Employees Supplemental
Stock Program (the "Program") provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the Program Prospectus for a more
complete description of the Programs provisions.
GENERAL
The purpose of the Program is to assist the employees of Tandy
Corporation and its participating affiliates and associates
(collectively called "Company") in building personal net worth
and to encourage ownership in the Company by providing a Program
for regular investment in the Company's common stock after an
employee has reached a maximum salary deferral contribution limit
under the Tandy Employees Deferred Salary and Investment Plan.
The Program is subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) relating to the protection
of employee benefit rights, but is not subject to Title IV,
relating to plan termination insurance coverage, and such
insurance will not be extended to participants in the Program
in the future.
CONTRIBUTIONS
Through authorized payroll deduction a participant could contribute
5% of his or her gross salary or wages to the Program after reaching a
maximum salary deferral contribution limit under the Tandy Employees
Deferred Salary and Investment Plan. Effective January 1, 1996 the
percentage was changed from 1 to 8% of his or her gross salary or
wages after reaching a maximum salary deferral contribution limit
under the Tandy Fund.
The Company makes contributions to the Program equal to 80% of
the participant's contribution.
Cash dividends are added to the participant's account as Other
contributions paid on the shares of common stock credited to a
participant's account. These other contributions are not subject to
matching contributions by the Company.
The participant's contributions and the Company matching contri-
bution are a part of the employee's current compensation, and,
as such, are subject to all applicable federal, state, and local
income, federal insurance contributions act and other taxes. The

common stock with shares being credited to the participant's

as reported for the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions for

</TABLE>
The unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities held for
investment for financial statement reporting prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles differ from that for income tax
reporting.
Generally accepted accounting principles measure unrealized appreciation
or depreciation as the difference between the securities' market value at
the Program's year end and its historical cost. The unrealized
appreciation or depreciation for income tax reporting is the difference
between the securities' market value at the plan year end and its current
value at the beginning of the plan year.
A participant's account is increased or decreased by the unrealized
appreciation or depreciation recognized under generally accepted
accounting principles.
NOTE E - CHANGES TO THE PROGRAM
