Joinery gadgets for cheap furniture

We’ve all seen them, but from where can I get some? You know, those plastic cam-lock style joinery gadgets that outfits like Sauder Furniture uses to join shelves together on their “fine” woodwork. I’m building an office desk that I’d like to be able to dis-assemble when I need to move it, and those gadgets would be just the trick – but I can’t find them at my friendly ACE hardware. Any suggestions?

*Try a Sears Hardware store if there's one in your area. I bought some barrel nuts last week at my local Sears Hardware and they had an array of plastic stuff ala Sauder Furniture.
