[TriLUG] OT: Local Store with a good variety of button cells?

Hi all,

I have portable gadgets that need button cell batteries, and some of
them have gotten hard to find.  In particular, the CR1600 series (e.g.
1632, 1620) is really scarce.  The local stores that sell some of them
usually have more empty hooks than product.

I've ordered them online, but it's kind of ridiculous because packs of
eight, ten, or more often cost as much as one or two.  So I have a
drawer that is filling up with spares.  This is the one thing I miss
about Radio $hack, despite them being a buck or two more every visit.

If you know of a local place that has a better than typical selection,
please let me know. 

Feel free to reply off list.  And if you need a 362, 2025, 927, etc and
live near Cary, I've got extras.
