This is something you might not want to do-really!!! Cheap floor won't last long, and ugly until you put the other cheap floor in again. Your floor will stay cheap and ugly. Save some money and fix your floor when you ready to have a nice one.

Do not think cheap. Think bargain!
You can often find very nice flooring that is left over from a build job. Check around at your local builders and see if they have more than they need. You can also check the stores.
The next option is to advertise in a nickel shopper paper or free ads. Most towns have some type of cheap classifieds ads paper. Just run an ad that simply says that you are looking for nice flooring of overstock or left over. You may find someone who is removing a nice flooring with newer, yet the old is still great!
Have fun!

It depends a lot on what your putting it over. Cheap carpet covers almost anything.
