They are called neodymium magnets. They are extremely powerful. You only need a small neodymium magnet to pick up a lot.
If you are interested in buying them you can go here to buy some:

Or you can do a search on the web.

Oops, not nickel-cadmium - Neodymium. My mistake.
I think you can buy them online but they're not that cheap and fiddly to use - if you get them attached to something its pretty hard to peal them off!
