Well, can get syringes from many sources, and pretty cheaply.
For specific sizes and needs, I paid more and purchased a bunch some time ago for use with bottled ink. I ordered in bulk, and Luer Lock needles, from McMaster-Carr.

I dunno about LA, but here in CA it's illegal to get any type of syringe without a prescription - so it wasn't just a matter of going to a pharmacy for me. You could try eBay. Like kia said, there are a lot of people using them to refill ink cartridges. And since you're getting some anyway, might as well look for 20 gauge blunt needles, so you can use them on CE3s...
Or if you have a short one already, you can try dumping some liquid into a carto condom, and filling it up from there...

I think you have to buy the syringe to get the needle. I use the green one for high ~80VG. I think it's 14ga.

I guess, if you can get the needle tightly through the dropper. Some of them have some sort of stopper to control the drops (like a ball bearing?), some of them you'd just have to make the hole bigger - and it has to be just the right amount of "bigness," or you'd have liquid dripping down your hand...sometimes it's just easier to take the dropper off.
You actually want 21gauge for the ce3 if you can find them. The 20 gauge will work but it's slightly bigger than what comes with the kit.
I ordered a pack of 50 from grainger for $12.

I'm having a horrible time getting the juice in the syringe that came with the CE3 from GotVapes. Would it work to get a needle capped bottle to fill the CE3? The few times I did manage to fill the CE3, I loved the flavor and amount of vapor, so I really am motivated to to get them filled. I'm just extremely frustrated that I can't seem to get the syringe filled with the juice!

Put some juice in the cap of the juice bottle and draw it in that way. On thick juices, you may want to take off the needle to fill the syringe and then put it back on to fill the ce3
the syringe I ordered individually from GotVapes is a lot more useful than the syringe that came with CE3's. I don't know how needle lengths are labelled but the individual syringe's needle is twice as long as the needle that came in CE3 box.
Gotvapes sells empty "flask" style bottles that have a large enough opening in the top to fit the entire syringe in. I got one with a juice I had ordered from them, once it was empty I just filled it with my ry4 and use that.
I think the needle tipped bottle would be tough to use, as it won't work as well when filling the ce3 upside down. Too much potential for air to get in there.
The needle that comes with the ce3 is a 1/2" 21 gauge. You can use 20 gauge. Grainger sells 1 1/2" needles
