...at a place like Walmart or Best Buy and been happy....

The last time I was able to buy a new TV I needed a couple cables. Why is it the place that sells a 32" TV for under $175 needs to charge over $5 per foot for an HDMI cable. I mean it's WIRE and connectors.
I now plan ahead and buy the cables I'll need from:

A 3 foot cable is $2 and I can pick what color I want.
