Tandy calls them "lace hooks" and sell them for 7.99 online for a 10 pack (brass or nickel plated brass).  Individual stores don't always stock all the items.

Buy a whole side its the only way to get it cheaper. Any time they split a whole hide into small peices the price goes up its the American way. Get a few guys together buy a side and then fight over the premium parts!
