Fry's

While I was waiting for BlogOn to start, I made a pilgimage to Fry's. While people on the West Coast may take this chain for granted, there's nothing like it in Boston, except perhaps for You-do-it Electronics which is one tenth the size.

Fry's has aisle upon aisle of electronic components:

Obscure tools you can purchase nowhere else:

And, since no geek should need to shop anywhere else, plenty of food to fuel one's creative energies:

how much you drop @ Fry's? It would be very hard for me not to walk out of a place like that with at least of few bags of trinkets.

Actually, the hard part was buying stuff I could bring back in my carry-on bag. As it was, I had to ask a friend to bring back (she was checking luggage) a nice set of tamper-proof screwdrivers, since the TSA seems to take a dim view of tools in carry-on luggage.
