As far a grocery shopping goes...
Honey works well.
Dark honey is even better - more antioxidants.

no fructose and sucrose are not the ideal pwo sugars.

just pick up some dextrose...many stores have it.

a 50/50 mix of dextose n maltodextrin or waixy maize would be the best way to go.

Powdered gatorade has dextrose in it.

Smarties (candy) have dextrose in them.

Glucose tablets can be picked up at a drugstore.

Look in the yellow pages for a home brewing store.  You can pick up dextrose and maltodextrin there.  I recommend using both in combination.
