2.5" Laptop IDE to 3.5" Desktop IDE converter

I've found a few at online sellers, but tonight I'll be in the Best Buy/Circuit City area and this is an ASAP job so I don't want to wait a week for shipping if I don't have to. My question is, what do you think the chances are of a store like Circuit City or Best Buy carrying an item like this? They usually cost ~$15 or so. If not Circuit City or Best Buy, any other store chain that might? We're talking Lansing, Michigan area here.

Thanks in advance.

Comp USA maybe?

Hmm... CompUSA maybe. Yeah the nearest Fry's is in Grand Rapids which is a 90 minute drive from where I'll be tonight and I dunno if I can swing that. Perhaps I can get down there in the next few days. I'm about to take a drive to an old parts shop I used to go to for PSU adapters/splitters and networking cable, if I get lucky they'll carry it but I'm not holding out much hope.

Thanks again.

Look for a generic electronic parts store - I get those downtown at SWS Electronics - about $7 or so.
