Vacuum cleaner bags

What is the best place to buy vacuum cleaner bags?
They used to stock these in supermarkets, but I haven't seen any so far. Must I go online for these nowadays?
Has Dyson wiped out the conventional vacuum cleaner?

    I'm thinking the same - We got given a Kirby vacuum cleaner off a work friend to get us going in our first property - Now, we're out of bags and need more!

    They should still be available online somewhere. Maybe stock up and buy a few packs?
    But vac bags used to be in supermarkets and B&Q. They have disappeared nowadays, though.

    I had to ring the manufacturer for bags for my Panasonic. I did find some in Argos but they weren't the same, or as good.

    That's what I am looking for bags for: a Panasonic cylinder vac.
