Order online, do will-call, and stop by their shop in Eden Prairie, right off of hwy5. 15' HDMI cables for $11, great prices on lots of other stuff. Very similar to monoprice.com but way more awesome, as they are local.

Just thought I'd share :D I just picked up one of these:

I'm installing a LCD TV on a wall and have no way to wire an actual power outlet to this location. You put the male outlet near the floor and run an extension cord to it, then the female end at the top (behind the TV) for power. The low-voltage holes are for HDMI or coax. Turns out I have sheetrock in this section of my house so this is a really easy way for anyone that wants a clean looking wall-mounted TV to DIY w/o much hassle.

Thanks Chris, I always have ordered from partsexpress.com but a metro cable location is awesome.

Considering you can order online and go pick it up M-F during biz hours its freaking awesome. Or just order and pay the $5 or w/e for shipping, its at your house the next day. I was just going to do this but then I went and looked, they're 5 minutes from my office, maybe less.

That is sweet, since I need a few more to hook up various crap to our TV. The 6' one I have now I paid around $60 for. Glad they've come down a lot.
