It depends on the size you need. We use BugCo (ebugco.com) and Cricket Factory (cricketfactory.com) primarily.

I purchase from Grooms crickets. Have never had any issues with them and you get more than what they say.

On line is defentetly the best approach, I personally get mine from Worm man's Worm Farm. There are about as many online retailers of crickets as there are online retailers of dragons.

Good Luck

i buy from Ghanns Cricket Farm http://www.ghann.com/
crickets, mealworms, and more. great prices and great deals. shipping takes 2 days to me via DHL. DHL is good with crickets but terrible at shipping reptiles. ghanns does a large overcount to make up for crickets that may die in shipping.

I use Grooms Cricket farm. Wonderful people and wonderful service. I am lucky that I live in Florida as I always seem to get the crickets in 1 to 2 days. Never have dead loss that way.
