Maybe it is too late in the year, since it is mainly used for landscaping they may quit getting it in until spring

Just to make sure we've covered most of where they can be found:

•Look in the garden supply places for ground cover (2-5cm) and top dressing (<1cm-perfect for humidity/drip trays).
•Craft stores and flower shops may have them in the flower arragement supplies (<1cm)
•Aquarium supply sometimes has big chunks for tank decor and I think I saw the <1cm size.
•Barbeque/outdoor grill rocks are >2cm size
•Old volcanic formations could be whole mountain sides
