Yes, most gas stations carry a generic form of brake fluid.

No "special" fluid required. Just buy good quality standard brake fluid.
No. That would be a huge mistake. Buy brake fluid. Its only $2 to $8 dollars at a store.
Dot 3----this is the fluid that is sold everyware buy on price as there is no such thing as bad brake fluid
You can find on eBay
Petrol station/ gas station or Walmart, repco. Buy the green one
GO TO YOUR BRAKE FLUID CONTAINER ON YOUR ENGINE, BUY SOME DOT 3 BRAKE FLUID AT AUTO ZONE & FILL IT UP TO WHERE IT SAYS "FULL" or "Max". The Owners Manual has illustrations and specifics on how to check and add brake fluid. See "Related Questions" below
Buy a bottle of DOT 3 brake fluid. Find the reservoir, which is in the engine compartment right in front of the brake pedal. Clean the reservoir, open it and add fluid until it reaches the bottom of the filler neck.
Brake fluid in ANY vehicle should be flushed every two to three years depending on vehicle usage. Be sure to use the appropriate brake fluid for your Honda (don't just buy any brake fluid off the shelf.) I always flush my fluid when I replace the front disk pads. If your brake fluid is a very dark brown or worse, milky, change it immediately.
I buy transmission fluid from the dealer since it is a "synthetic oil" type fluid. Brake fluid is DOT-4 from anywhere althogh you can price it at the dealer.
WHEN YOU GO TO STEP ON YOUR BRAKES YOU AREN'T GOING TO HAVE ANY . THE BRAKE FLUID PUSHES THROUGH YOUR BRAKE LINES AND PUSHES ON THE CYLINDERS IN YOUR CALIPERS AND /OR SHOES AND PUSHES THE DISCS CLOSED ON THE ROTORS / OR DRUMS IT PUSHES THE SHOES OUT TO CAUSE FRICTION ON THE DRUMS WITHOUT FLUID THIS ACTION WILL NOT HAPPEN AND YOU WILL NOT STOP PLUS YOUR BRAKE PEDAL WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. MY ADVICE GO BUY BRAKE FLUID IMMEDIATELY. ITS CHEAP
