Hardware stores such as Lowe's, Ace, and Home Depot may have a drawer in the fasteners section that is labeled "Science Experiments" and may carry small horseshoe magnets of a size commonly used in science classes. There are many vendors online that will sell magnets, one of which is www.unitednuclear.com, where they sell a wide variety of magnets designed for more complex experiments.
Also, in many Canadian cities Dollar shops have those magnets.
