The problem now is finding the fruit in the grocery store to get the seeds. I checked a few of my local markets and they do not seem to carry them.

Where are you located? I have bought mangos, avocados, guavas, carambola, etc. from HD, WalMart, and Lowes, in CA and FL. In CA, sometimes even Costco and other grocery chain stores have some of them. Also, in Asian markets.
The cheapest one that you can get them from, in terms of shipping is Logee's. Unfortunately, they are currently out of stock. Wait a month, and I'm sure they'll have them again.
Occasionally, the Safeway stores in the Seattle area would carry Carambola fruit. Definitely, when they're in season, Asian stores would have them. If you want I can alert you if they have them here.
