The B&M markup on cables and adapters bothers me enough that I'll eat the downtime and buy from Monoprice or Newegg. For the price of one HDMI at Walmart, I was able to get HDMI, optical, and a display port->HDMI adapter from Monoprice.

However, if you want a thinner cable, smaller connectors, or different jacket for environmental or aesthetic reasons, they're probably not going to have what you want. They do have a wide selection of colors for HDMI and Ethernet cables, though, so even when buying a cable that needs to look good, I always check Monoprice first.
