Is there a substitute for Okra when making Gumbo? I'm not having a ton of luck finding it at my local stores.

Not really. But, not all gumbo has okra in it. Personally, I'm not a big fan of it so I seldom use it. But, you might check out the frozen vegatables in your grocery. I don't know where you are, but sometimes it's easier to find frozen than fresh.
