I just pulled the trigger on this as well. I haven't had a chance to even set mine up yet, but I'm super excited.
I went with this:

I like it because I can use it to make a floor if I want, or just a really huge roof if I don't need a floor. The only downside is my tent has zippers and keeps my dog in the tent, not sure how I will manage that situation when I use this new tarp. I'm thinking the dog will just stay home.

Does anyone have this tarp? It's pretty damn cheap, but I don't want to buy it and discover it's crap.
You can look at UST or Eastern Ridge Tarp as decent budget options.

And if you can go a little higher to 60 bucks, check out the Chill Gorilla Pro-tent tarp or the costlier Kelty Noah.

I've been using this tarp with an eno single for several months now. Been pretty happy with it so far.

Cool!
There's also some middle-ground. Some companies that make much more reasonably priced rainflies. I have not tried them though, so I can't personally say if they're any good. But I bet they're better than a simple tarp. So you don't have to go all or nothing. :)
