Shallot substitute?

I have a hard time finding shallots unless I go to a speciality food store. Is there something that will substitute well?

You could substitute with onion and a little garlic. For every tablespoon of shallots needed use 2/3 tablespoon of minced onion and 1/3 tablespoon of minced garlic.

 A sweeter onion combined with a little garlic should do the trick.

SHALLOTS ARE JUST A SMALLER VERSION OF THE BIG ONION AND BIGGER THAN THE GREEN ONIONS... I HAVE USED GREEN ONIONS & LEEKS IN PLACE OF THE SHALLOTS
