Their availability seems to be regional. If you have Albertson's or Smith's grocery stores you might try there. I am a believer in matches for some situations and I have always treated my own to waterproof them. But I have got to echo the recommendations for the REI Stormproof style. Their advantages vastly outweigh the small inconvenience of packing the striker. Since buying the Stormproofs I got rid of all of my SA's.
