Vanilla Bean

I need some vanilla beans. I have just checked two grocery stores and can't find them. I'm looking in the baking area - is this the wrong area?

I have IGA and SuperValu in my community but can get to Vancouver if I have to.

Thanks.

Thanks Ladybug. I'm going into Vancouver on Monday so I'll check out Safeway there.

We have recently been given an ice cream maker and all of the interesting recipes need a vanilla bean.

I don't want to offend any lawyers out there! I don't "resue" vanilla beans but rather reuse them. Must be the eggnog interfering with my typing.

happy new year everyone!
trwatson. I live in Calgary and regularly buy vanilla beans in Safeway in the spice section. They come 2 to a tube (as in test tube) and did you know that you can resue them if they are left to air dry and then kept in the tube? I got that tip from a cooking class I took.
