I love Fry's. It is one of those places that I can go and spend the entire day. I go in looking for one .$94 capacitor and leave having taken out a second mortgage.
Taking my wife to Fry's, I believe, has shown her what it is like for me to go shopping for shoes with her. Awesomely enough, our Fry's has a coffee shop and cafe in the center of it and my wife can chill in a coffee shop all day without complaint!
My only complaint is that, much like the Radio Shack of late, the people who work there know absolutely nothing about the actual electronic components other than (kind of) where to find them.
Much to my amusement, I had a guy in Radio Shack just yesterday say to me, "Man, I don't even know what tinned means. I can read the package to you if you want." I said "Thanks."
