If you go to Target or Walmart, they're usually in the same section as the "travel size" products.
Another good place to look is the luggage department.
2 and 4 ounce containers are more prevalent than 3 ounce.
Beware of cheap bottles that are hard plastic or have flimsy caps. Leakproof Nalgene bottles are best.
Caps of different colors are recommended, too, as labels tend to come off quickly.
Do a web search for "leakproof travel bottles" - there's plenty out there.

I've purchased them at Walmart (as djkbooks mentions, in the travel-size product section). Last time I got a few, they were only 50 cents apiece.
Great for shampoo, conditioner, hand lotion, etc. I always put them in a ziplock bag, though, just in case of leaks.
Happy travels!

Target has a whole new crop of the 3 oz. size bottles, clearly marked as being 3 oz. for security staff.
I just bought a bunch of those Nalgene bottles at The Container Store, and they seem really nice. I have heard Nalgene rinses out very thoroughly, so you can reuse the bottles for different products, if need be.
LLBean sells a set of 1- and 2-ounce Nalgene bottles, too.

I was in our local DollarTree store yesterday, and saw a set of three plastic bottles for travel. One had a regular cap, one had a squeeze flip-top cap, and the last one had a spray function. I believe all were about the same size. Thought about buying, but really don't need them right now.
