Actually, the local store here will sell just about any quantity to me if it's in stock.  If they don't stock it, then they may have a minimum on very small screws, etc., but typically it's a very reasonable quantity (not like a $25 minimum or anything like that).  I've started using them more as the store is right on my way to work and, like you say, they have just about any kind of fastener.

Watch out which kind of stainless fasteners you order, though.  One grade is vastly more expensive than the other.
