I was never at Domenic's on Mill. Can't say how Wheeler's (now Domenic's 2 Wheelers) on Rural compares in size. It seems pretty large.

They're just good people. Today I figured out (a different thread) I could replace my nutted rear axle with a hollow one (and quick-release skewer). Took the wheel to Domenic's. The mechanic spent 5 minutes trying different things just to sell me a $13 axle. And, Sean gave me a free skewer from their spare-parts box. All for a bike I bought at Walmart.

I don't think a lot of stores would help a person out like that. (I approached this topic at another local store two months ago. They dismissed it as not worth the time. That's probably true. But, again shows a difference in attitudes.).
