They're dirt cheap judging from the google results. They sell them in my LFS for this purpose with a markup for like $10-15. They stretch a little but the holes are just large enough so that Eheim Substrat Pro doesn't fall through. I use them in my sump for the same purpose full of ceramic rings and Substrat Pro. Don't think they restrict flow at all.
Size varies, although they tend to be fairly large (like, big enough to hold a load of laundry.)
That being said, you don't have to use the whole thing. Just tie it up and put the excess bagging on the side so it's not in the way of flow.
