I see this thread took an immediate detour and didn't get back to your
query.
Look in larger grocery stores (Safeway, Albertson's) or independent
upscale groceries for fresh mint. If they don't carry it, are you in
an area with green grocers (aka: vegetable stores)? The same stores
that carry fresh basil, thyme etc will either carry or have access to
mint. Ask them if you don't see it.
