Default Where to get huge sheets to cover the carpet floor?

We need a large sized plastic--or other materials--sheets that are large enough to cover some 5'x5' (about 25 square feet) of the carpet floor, to protect the carpet while someone practices his barber skills. Where can I get such huge sheets? Obviously it should be cheap for such purpose (to be disposed after one use). What stores sell such?

Thanks in advance.

For something a little stronger, I would get an outdoor tarp that you can fold over on itself to make it smaller. It's not as flimsy as some of the other types of plastic covering on the market. And, you can get them at Home Depot, Lowe's, hardware stores -- most are blue in color, and some have grommets where they can be tied down outside.
