Where to get blood oranges?

I want to work on a couple variations of a Sicilian blood orange salad. Have you seen blood oranges around (preferably Chestnut Hill or nearby Montco area)?

      Produce junction has blood oranges fairly often, but it's unpredictable. Don't know where their Upper Montco locations are--there is one in Wynnefield that I go to from Merion.

        Thanks for the replies. I ended up finding the blood oranges not too far from home at Lee's in Conshohocken.

        Let me add that Giordano's Produce (9th and Washington in the Italian Market) had boxes of the Sicilian Blood Oranges for ten dollars this morning on the Washington Ave side

          Main Street Market in Manayunk usually has them.

            I've recently found them at Wegmans (Cherry Hill).

              Not Montco/Chestnut Hill but Iovine's in the RTM has had both California blood orages (smaller - 3/1.00) and Sicilian (larger - 1.00 each) for the last few weeks

                Top of the Hill Market in Chestnut Hill had them about a week and a half ago. They may still have them.
