The dollar store ones are kind of flimsy (cheap solder joints, stiff copper, etc.), but work fine as long as you don't need to snake them around a bunch of corners.

The ones you buy from a retail store will be better quality, but have a lot of markup on them.

If you buy cables from NCIX, for example, you'll probably spend half the money ($5-$10) and get an equivalent quality cable.
