If you find a better place I'd like to know, but Amazon is about the best place I've been able to find them.

Major Surplus in Gardena, but I think they’re a little expensive.
The in-store selection has been low recently check online first.

Are the amazon ones real MRE's? I know there's a bit of "civilian" versions. I'm looking for the mil version. I can attest that one I had with a 2011 inspection date was gtg 2013 (stored @ 68-70deg ambi).

Thanks Garv and RogueSniper. I've been there and they seem to have repackaged items (from the real ones) and non-mil versions of MRE's.
The mil version has a very thick vinyl package and says not for sale on the outside. It protects the contents well as I've lugged a few of those with my kit in Africa. They seem to be OOS. Thanks for the heads up though.

There is a guy in lomita that sells on craigslist.
I wait for the sales at major surplus. Signup for their email. I go to major surplus and buy the Indivdual packs to taste them. Those go on sale sometimes.

Look on eBay for some. I've bought from Solid Solutions before. They have bundles of 2 or 3 MRE's with diffferent menus available. Like some sellers I've seen they have free shipping.

Just personally, nowadays I switched to Mountain House (pouches, #10 Cans) as my MRE.
They have long shelf life (some as long as 20-30 years,) and they are quite delicious (I actually enjoy eating them when hiking, at full range day, etc.) I use a JetBoil to heat water for it. Very compact and weather-proof. My go-to places for Mountain House are: - Nitro-Pak.com (been buying from them since Katrina, good seller.) - Amazon (It often has the Classic Bucket on sale.) - MountainHouse.com (sign up for email list, it often have items for sale.)

So I just bought two boxes (A&B) for my Earthquake stash from Amazon. It was 24 meals with heaters and all of the little bags for $143.90 (before tax) with free shipping. So around $6 per MRE for 2019 Inspection date. The same seller has 2018 ones $5 cheaper if you plan to use them sooner.

Mountain house consists about 70% of my rations. Just need to rotate out the MRE’s from 5yrs back. Hopefully he’ll have 2020 or newer insp dates.

Me personally I’d rather have mostly freeze dried mtn house and mres to supplement when you can’t make a fire. Mres are really bulky for the calorie content.

OP, since you mentioned you are looking to "refresh, look for the later dates, as they will store longer.
Most I just checked on Amazon had dates that "inspect" was 2017-2019, and for ~$150, I'd like them to last a few years. Not that I haven't eaten canned Vietnam-era rats 20 years ago, but still... with kids, I would like money spent on emergency chow to last as long as possible, as I would be "storing" it with earthquake supplies.

I go with amazon for MRE's for price and free shipping.
Also Wally World will ship canned food to your house for free with a 35$ order and 2 day shipping, if your not in a hurry they will give you an extra discount for 7 day delivery.

What is a good price for standard military MRE's? Is it maybe just cheaper to just buy canned food and dry goods?

Some options
I purchase civilians MREs, I do not need the accessory packets. BTW; the suppliers for the DOD also make the civilian MREs.

eBay, but I've also heard of people selling them at gun shows.
