I've bought various syrups at Meijer (a regional mass merchandiser/grocer here in the midwest), Gordon Food Service (don't know if these are national or just here in Michigan), and even some at Target a year or so back (sold for snow cones, but worked to make pop as well).

There are a lot of places online you can buy flavoring concentrates to make your own syrup, as well as ready to blend syrups.

One that is fun is Prairie Moon:

This place sells syrups (kind of pricey, though), and also has instructions for building your own cheaper home carbonation unit.
