If you are talking about the kind where you slide the pin in at different levels for a different number of plates [the kind they have infomercials for] i think i saw them at the Sports Authority.

If you are talking about the dumbbells where its just a short bar and you can screw or slide actually plates onto either side, i think i may have seen them at the sports authority. The SA is a pretty good store.

I tried to do a search under Google.com for adjustable dumbbells and i got a bunch of crap about light, sissy weights for home use. I dont know how more to help. Sorry, good luck

Power Blocks

Thanks for the sites guys, anyone ever used the power blocks?

I used powerblocks one time, but only in the store for test purposes. I think i was out shoping or something with someone and was bored. Anyway, didn't really get a great feel for them, but my instinct was that the weighting was a little strange; like i kept feeling like the handle was trying to twist in my hands.

But, sorry, can't really speak from too much experience. They do kick ass however, in how easy it is to change the weight, although, now that i think about it, i had some difficulty getting the u-shaped pin to fit in right and the elastic band holding it to the dumbbell was a little too short.

Test em out before you buy them.

Will do that for sure bro, thanks for the advice. I am needing something to put into my house so I can get in some decent workouts when I cant make it to the gym or something to take with me when I am traveling. I work long days and a lot of overtime and I cant always make it to the gym.

Solid, i think its great that you are doing what you can, even when you dont realy have the time. And i would guess that when time is limited, easiest is best.

You are so right, simplicity is best when time is limited. I actually only use dumbells for upper body when I am at the gym anyway, for upper body that is. Of course I use barbell for legs though. But I can always find at least one day per week to go hit legs. Sometimes its just a struggle to get to the gym before it closes when I work long nights, but I have no choice but to stay in shape because of the job that I have. I may end up investing in some of those Power Blocks just for those days that I cant make it to the gym.

If I were you, I'd get some olympic dumbell handles and olympic plates. Adjustable and if you ever decide to build a home gym you will already have some of the plates.
