Where to buy egg crate?

I have been reading about people using egg crate to cover their tanks. Where do you buy it?

Lowes or Home Depot. It is in the lighting section. It is actually a light diffuser for lights

Our HD does not carry them in the lighting section. They are actually in the drop down ceiling section w/e that is called. So make sure to check there too in case you can't find them. $10 here for 48" x 24".
