Hi Margaret, I do see them occasionally along top shelves in grocery stores, but I do know I can still buy them at Army/Navy stores - Hunting/Camping stores .. you ARE talking about the Diamond (or blue tip) matches, right? You can also buy them online .. here is an online link you can use as a reference:

Thanks for using Hometalk as a reference point for answers ;)
Some grocery stores sell them.
Well 60 years ago we used to buy our matches for canoe trips from LL Bean. Bass Pro Shops has them too, and any hiking gear store has a variety of wood matches from strike anywhere, waterproof, storm proof, safety, etc.

Some grocery stores, some hardware stores and a good camping store.
Sporting Good store......... camping section.
I have seen them in Walmart, especially in the sports department around the camping gear.
Go to a hunting supply store. They have all the usual things one needs. An army navy store is a good place to find stuff like that too.
Margaret- When you find them they fit good in and old pill bottle and water tight, Take up a small space in your camping gear (pocket).
thanks for all the responses
Most large grocery stores sell them as does WalMart.
