Where do you get crush washers?

Ok, I don't feel like driving all the way to the dealer for a crush washer since the cost of gas would probably make it worthless since I hardly go on that side of town now (that and I heard they charge $1-$1.50/washer ) . I ordered 15 on amazon thinking that $.35 wouldn't be too bad with $4 shipping. Finished the order with everything else and it came out to $11 shipping >.> Canceled that the second I saw. I tried Home Depot but they didn't have a single thing in for M14. Went to 3 auto stores and didn't really see anything (only 1 was I looking for it and other 2 I was looking for other things). Other than dealer, where have you guys got these?

I've re-used crush washers several times without incident. But as their name implies, they crush to form the seal, so YMMV.

I was able to find a assortment of them at my local parts store though.

Because they were on the way to get food and gym. I rather not pay $1+ for a stupid washer. I reused it this time but rather just stock up on them.

Guess it's a little over 12 miles to dealer from house. Guess it's not that far and with gas actually bring cheap now, shouldn't be too bad. Just don't like the dealer. Went once and took them a freaken hour to give me 3 oil filters and take pictures of my steering wheel to see if it's covered under warranty.
