It will depend on how you set up your tarp.

It will fit me in some setups but I dont think it will be enough for A shape setup

3m x 3m should be a minimum for you. Perhaps 4.5m x 3m would better suit you?

These are my favourite DD tarp set ups.

I am really messed up , only if I had asked this few days ago before I made some orders I would have enough money for the dd tarp , but for I now I don't
I don't have any shelter option , I dont have no tarps no tents and I really want to get one, max that I can pay is 35$ what should I do?

If you're willing to wait, when I get a new job (not sure when it will be) I'll give you the remaining money to buy one.

get a plastic tarp until you can afford a better one? or could you get one locally made?

Plenty of guides on the interweb showing how to make an old school oilskin tarp out of a large bed sheet (or two joined together) using boiled linseed oil.

I see from your other post that you are going to teach bushcraft which is about using your initiative to use things for your advantage.
So, 1, Go to your local diy shop and buy a plastic tarp, very cheap while you save up for what you want.and will be useful as a ground sheet afterwards.
2, Buy some plastic sheeting and a roll of gaffer tape and an eyelet kit and make your own.
3, Buy some material and sew one yourself or get someone else to sew it.
4, Source a sheet - as Nomad said.
5, Fishing tackle shops have plastic tarps for a couple of pounds. I got one from our market to throw over my bike
when camping .

Big sheet of plastic. Half a dozen old golf balls or smooth stones of that size. Make pockets in the edge of the sheet, tie a golf ball in each one. Long cords as tie downs.

Here is an excellent video on making a cheap, light tarp
