sean,
Try an industrial supply house like Grainger or McMaster-Carr. They're not always the cheapest, but they'll have what you want in the quantity you want.

I buy them at the local harbor freight. They have sales on them now and then around $3 for 36. I also buy them on line at ENCO for about $10 for 144. Theres a harbor freight at Parmer and Mopac.

Since I'm ordering from Enco for the first time, anything else you recommend from them that I should take a look at?

Thanks,

Not unless you do a lot of metal work. I have a lathe and mill at home. Their catalog is pretty extensive. Ask for one. Its easier to browze the book than to find things online.

Treat yourself to either a digital or dial caliper if you don't have one. They are handy as heck for so many things even if you don't do metal work.

Lots of other layout and measuring tools as well.
