Well, you can mix it from scratch -- I do have the formula floating about somewhere. Or buy the mix from Photographer's Formulary. Rodinal, incidentally, lasts decades if kept in sealed bottles: I have a bottle from the 1950's which still is quite potent.

Rodinal was first formulated in 1893 and is now 115 years old. That newcomer, D-76, only dates from 1926. New kid on the block!
