Sage?

How many of you have noticed the shortage of "sage" at the local grocery stores?  It was the same last year around this holiday, and now I find it missing on the shelves again this year.  What are we to use for seasoning in our dressing/stuffing?  Thanksgiving is the one holiday that we use plenty of sage.  I inquired about it and the clerk told me that when she ordered, there was none in the warehouse.  WTF is going on?  I suppose that I will have to go and buy a flowering sage bush at my local home and garden store, plant it and grow my own.  That way, if it don't die I will have plenty of fresh sage each year.
