One here in town sells 10' rolls.

Yeap, I get mine in 10' by 20" rolls at big box stores for under $14.

I'll have to look again. Last time I looked only saw the 50' rolls...   though I could probably use a 50' roll to cover all the new tops I am using..  Just too cheap in my old age.  Be nice to have some for customers, should make 5 tops worth.
