Most any hardware store will have an assortment of cork stoppers.

Most definitely serious; burnt cork is the old school method for face camo.

I bought some Bourbon with a cork and wooden stopper(Wild Turkey I think).I screwed a small screw in 35MM film canister lid and into wood and  you can burn the cork and store it the can very neat.I also drank the bourbon.Kip

Stores that sell wine/beer/cider making supplies should have them too. Then if you really are cheap like me, you buy just the cork only and go make your own hard cider.
