Default replacement plastic snap fasteners

Does anyone know the best place to buy the replacement snap fasteners for soft tour luggage?

I replaced the plastic one on my helmet strap with a metal one - I bought a small kit with snaps and punch & die at Joan's hand craft shop.
Michaels also has them.

I'm looking for that too. I already made a new leather piece for one of them.

Sporting goods aisle at any big chain store usually has replacement stuff like that. I've seen it by the camping supplies.

I got a buddy that goes through those plastic clips like you wouldn't belive. First he started stealing them off camelbacks and old backpacks he had lying around. I finally got him to break down and buy some from a local camping/backpacking store.
