I've talked to folks who've had a tough time finding fuel to use. Yesterday, I checked two sources.
WalMart, compton (MLK avenue off crenshaw) - had cheap ($4) lamplight Ultrapure lamp oil, also had "Medallion" which i think is the lamplight basic lamp oil re-packaged. But only had the quart sizes of colemans fuel (both premium and "kerosene) for about $6.

KMart on Fair fax and third had colemans in the gallon can for $10 (half the cost of the premium at wal mart) in the camping supplies and had some stock of lamp oil (I didn't thoroughly look, since I had purchased some at wm) in the lamp section.

Also, I spotted coleman fuel at Rite Aide for $14 a gallon in limited supply (Vermont and hollywood)
