Hmm. Yeah. When it comes to extreme deals like that, I can see why you would go to Guitar Center. Though, for more mundane things, like speaker wire or guitar picks, a mom and pop shop could do just fine. There can be other types of perks for shopping at places like them, besides finances. When you become a regular, they really start to keep an eye out for you, often going out of their way to make sure you're happy.
