If you just like to get all sourcecodes for the packages you have
installed, this may help to populate your current directory:

--8<--
#!/bin/bash
dpkg --get-selections | while read line
do
        package=`echo $line | awk '{print $1}'`
        mkdir $package
        cd $package
        apt-get source --download-only $package
        cd ..
done
--8<--

Otherwise debmirror, as Manuel said. ;)

Best of wishes,
