I found this one alps medium - there were 2 warehouse deal ones for 15 - no idea if they are the right size
The waterproof ones you linked to looked cool (may still get one) but I was thinking that the ones with the straps would compress more - do not know if that is accurate
Keep in mind that if you're a cold or normal sleeper, it won't really be comfortable at 20 degrees. Also, you can always unzip it and use it as a blanket and cool down a bunch.
I'll just give you the general advice of:
Down: Compacts smaller, is lighter, typically more expensive, doesn't insulate when wet
Synthetic: Bulkier, cheaper, does better when wet.
I think you're better off looking at synthetics, and if it's not going to be cold then any old thing will do just fine, you're probably most concerned with the amount of volume it takes up. Look into a compression sack.
