The WalMarts/Targets around here don't carry them.
The only place I can get them locally are at the Dick's Sporting Goods stores.
Basegear.com has them for $19.95.

I got mine on campingsurvival.com, but they sell them at sportsmans warehouse here. I actually prefer the boyscout firesteel. The blastmatch is really heavy, and the button you press on the striker is really hard to push.

I was going to suggest Basegear, but Cliff beat me to it. 
Here's the direct link anyway.
