This is also my question. I want one but even Walmart junkers are $40
Edit: Amazon to the rescue, though it'll be more than $20 with shipping.

Lol... wut?
Just buy a normal tent for probably a fraction of the cost.
There are plenty of tents out there that have the same footprint as mattress sizes.
here is a full sized one for $20
Ditto on the 2-man tent size for space/storage.
If you're looking for the cheap road, some redditors have had success with [this].. I haven't used it so I can't say.
For slightly more expensive, I went with [this] instead also partly because I like the Coleman brand and think they produce quality stuff. It survives wind, cold, hot, rain (though I try to never camp in the rain anyways :P), etc.
For something you're going to use very often or need additional ruggedness, there are other brands to consider as well!
I haven't even taken it out of the bag yet, but I bought this to go with my bugout kit:

It's the smallest, lightest 2 person tent I was able to find on Amazon that didn't cost an arm and a leg. The whole thing weighs about 3lbs and could be strapped to the top of a backpack along with a bed pad or sleeping bag. And at $18, you can't beat the price.
I highly recommend buying your stuff in advance. You can buy a tent a walmart (and follow holylamma's advice), but buying ahead of time gives you peace of mind and tents should be cheaper.
I doubt walmart can beat this decent tent for $45:

and while we are at it, I've never seen a $15 tent:

I'm not specifically recommending either of these tents; I'm just trying to say buying ahead seems safer. Plus most tents come in their own bag with handles.
As far as supplies go, the local Walmart isn't at risk of selling out of much other than tents and sleeping bags.
