Where is the cheapest place to get stuff like wire, terminals, conectors, ect..?

Fry's is a pretty good place to get electronics stuff cheap.  It's not always the best quality, but if you need some connectors or wire or parts right away and you have a fry's in town, it's not too bad.

When I'm looking for electronics construction supplies, I go to HSC, http://halted.com/  They don't have many stores, but one happens to be near me.

I stumbled upon some Radio Shack surplus at a local Cummins Tools.  It would seem that RS is closing a bunch of their stores and seriously reducing their brick and mortar component business. 

I got all kinds of stuff for a buck each.  Several 75 foot spools of 18, 20, and 22 guage stranded wire, little round push buttons, barrier strips, tools, bateries, light bulbs, A/V cords, all kinds of crap.  Just about everything that ought to be on a wall in the back of a RS was in 4 shopping carts out in the middle of the floor.

RS is closing stores all over the USA  if there are a few in your town, there is probably a place selling their surplus cheap near you.
