I would suggest looking for a mattress protector that does not have a plastic surface. Memory foams tend to collect heat and you wouldn't' want the plastic to trap the heat. Look for a breathable mattress cover.

Where can I buy a cheap memory foam mattress in California?

The best places you can go to buy a cheap memory foam mattress is a second hand store. I know it sounds gross but they clean them very well and if you are still uncomfortable you can go to Walmart and buy a plastic cover that will zip around the entire mattress for fifteen dollars and then cover that with the sheets and bed spread. That is what I did and you don't even think about it when you are having the best sleep ever.

What thickness is a memory foam mattress?

The truthful answers is: "It's the thickness you are willing to pay for". One manufacturer I know of makes memory foam mattresses in three configurations: The top 2" of the mattress is memory foam, the top 4" is memory foam, and the whole mattress is memory foam. The price varies accordingly. Personal Note: If you can't afford a memory foam mattress, try a memory foam pillow. Awesome, especially if you're a "side sleeper".
