Wiper blades

Does anyone make wiper blades for the Fit that have replaceable inserts any more? About a year ago I bought a set of that I was told was top of the line Bosch Micro Edge wiper blades for my 2008 Fit. Today I attempted to buy replacement inserts. I was told that Bosch no longer offers replacement inserts, and that almost all wiper blade manufacturers no longer offer replacement inserts. Say what? When did that change? So it now looks like instead of buying $10 to $12 worth of inserts, they expect you to pay $50 for new blade assemblies. What a rip off. Any suggestions?
