Default Brake shims

When I bought my car it had the the oem rotors but different pads (I think). The pads also do not have any shims in them. The brakes squeal like the devil under light pressure and it's getting worse.
Is there any place I can get these shims without ordering them through the dealer/online? Advanced auto has the rears but no fronts. Autozone has "cut to fit" ones which I'm not a big fan of. Of course I'm just being a nerd and surfing the web for these instead of calling or going in. Thought I'd ask though.

you can order a shim kit from honda. shouldnt be much.. besides i prefer stock pads cuz they are softer and dont eat your rotors up.. and its easier to do pads than rotors

Well ordering is what I'm trying to avoid...I mean if that's the only way then I'll just deal with it. I'm just trying to see if there are other options.
