Hobby shops - or rather craft shops that sell scrapbooking stuff will have
it.  

You can get in sizes like that for the CriCut machines that have been
mentioned on here a few times.

Some eBay sellers will sell you a page-size sheet for a couple of dollars.

Interesting, I guess any high-gloss vinyl would work.  I've got a few
different types so I might try that.

There is a small possibility that the vinyl will melt in your fuser.  Years
ago a sales rep showed me some new vinyl stock (for labels), it got as far
as the fuser.  Took me ages to clean it out.
