    My local REI has only big, heavy Nalgene bottles: you'd be better off with original packaging in travel-sized items. I'm currently trying to scour through the house for little bottles I can repurpose. My daughter's blood-glucose monitor has a tiny bottle for testing solution: that's about to go in the kit. I looked through Wal-Mart for bottles, but unless you're interesting in spending $5 for a bottle (tossing out whatever is inside, in this case), you're out of luck there. Tomorrow I'm heading to the hippy-health-food store to see if they've got something in their lotions-and-potions section.

    I just bought a few .5oz "Japonesque" dropper bottles through Amazon (and paid more for shipping than I did the bottles). Looks like they are from a beauty supply company – you might have luck at a such a store locally.

    At the eye doctor or eyeglass/contact store.

    Should have a gazillion of them. Wash them out before you use them. They throw them into the recycling.

    Try your local independent Pharmacy. If they do thier own componding they should have what you need.

    I've stopped by one with my wife and there were a ton of differently sized bottles. But note – it must be a small store, not the large perfume chains like Sephora.

    Olso Walgreens, CVS often have them.

    ….Lawson Equipment and Mountain Laurel Designs carry them, others probably do also. JMO, but even at a little more (maybe) cost, I always prefer to shop "our guys" when possible over other options.
