Rather than buying individual bricks, I'd recommend just cutting up the plastic sprues that kits come on. If you cut them up to be tiny and lay them out on the bases, I think you could definitely make them look like fallen brickes for urban rubble (although they might be a little large - you may want to cut them down to be tiny).

 

Could save you some money, which helps in this hobby.

That is what I do. I’ve done a full squad of liberators standing on thin slices of sprue to mimic a cobble stone road or dungeon floor.

 

I’ve also built entire walkway platforms and towers using sprue remnants as “2x4s”

Greenstuffworld has some bricks, but they are identical to each other. 
As for an "urban rubble" theme, I usually do mine with GFS025 Hobby Round: Concrete Rubble Mix from gf9.com, glued to the base with some skulls and then covering the black plastic with Astrogranite and Martian Ironearth from GW. Everything is primed black and then painted with a couple of grey drybrush steps.

Result (old WIP):
