I have mentioned this a few times, I needed to special-order it from Lowes:

Shop Pactiv Extruded Polystyrene Foam Board Insulation (Common: .25-in x 4-ft x 50-ft; Actual: .25-in x 4-ft x 50-ft) at Lowes.com
Owens Corning FOAMULAR Fanfold R1 1/4 in. x 4 ft. x 50 ft.-10UM at The Home Depot

I do not know that Home Depot still carries it, nor am I positive Menard's is a real store. The product that Menard's sells says it has foil on one side. I do not know about the magical mystical mysterious Home Depot one, but as I had read on-line, the product from Lowe's has a layer of the thinnest plastic that I have ever seen, with a series of perforations, and when you try to remove the plastic, the perforations cause it to shred. I tried to remove the plastic on one sheet, attempting to roll it around a dowel as suggested, and I could not get it to work.
