Need slipcovers under $100!

Does anyone know where I can buy couch and loveseat slipcovers for less than $100 each. I've tried some of our local decor and department stores, but everything is so expensive. Most department store slipcovers are upwards of $200 each and that's not within my budget right now. I've considered replacing my couch/loveseat combo, but I know that they will look old very fast. We've got cats and a kid, so things tend to get messed up very quickly around here.
If you have any links to sites that sell affordable slipcovers online, I'd really appreciate them. Thanks!

we have had our couches since we got married (almost 20 years) and well after kids, pets etc they started to look ratty...
what we did was buy 2 painters canvas drop clothes (one for each couch - cost about $20 each, thick cotton and very durable) for our covers for our couches-they wash up really well in case of spills or whatever!

Yes! That is exactly what happened to our beautiful sofa/loveseat combo. And, I had considered replacing it over the Fourth of July holiday when they had some amazing deals at stores, but then realized in two years the new furniture just wouldn't look so good anymore. Plus, it's not really in my budget right now. So, I guess it was just wishful thinking! Or, maybe window shopping.
I'll have to admit, that is a very clever solution about the painters canvas drop cloths! Thank you for the idea. Where would I get those?
I was wondering one thing though. Are they very comfortable? My family is full of lounge lizards! LOL! And, we love our comfort zones. Would love to know if this would be a comfortable solution.

If anyone suggests something I would like to know too. The slipcovers i have seen are at least $59-69 for one seat. Even that is expensive. I may have to buy them if I can't find any cheaper ones.

Hey. Have ever thought of making some out of your old sheets or shower curtains lol... Just an idea... I really dont know where you could find a store that sells these things for less, as I know how expensive they can get... I can also suggest going to a fabric store, and these stores always have sales, and maybe sewing some up or getting someone you know to sew them up...
