They're called "Rare Earth / Neodymium Magnets".

I get them at the hardware store down the street. I'm sure Home Depot and the 
like carry them.

Go to Amazon.com and search for "Rare Earth Magnet", you'll see what they look 
like.

They are tremendously powerful. I use them in all kinds of projects to hold 
things in place. Got an old glove compartment door that needs help sticking? A 
TV mounting arm that won't stay put against the wall?  Great toolboard mounting 
magnet?  A zillion other things that only occur to you once you've played with 
these things?

I love cool tools and materials that solve problems.
