If you do find some be aware of the safety precautions that you need to use- you need heavy protective gloves and safety goggles to avoid getting a freeze-burn from the “smoke” released. Dry ice, for those who don’t know, is frozen carbon dioxide, which is much colder than frozen water (-20 degrees C vs 0 degrees C). It is used for snap freezing things like cells and tissue. It is also used by dermatologists to freeze off warts. I doubt you will find any outside a controlled lab or clinical environment.
