Rain ruined my tent floor in Yosemite, need a better groundsheet plan

Last Tuesday I camped near the Merced River and woke up to 3 inches of water pooled under my tent floor, my sleeping bag was soaked because I skimped on a footprint. The tent itself was fine, but the cheap tarp I used let water seep through the seams and it took me 4 hours to dry everything out the next day. Has anyone else had luck with those polycryo sheets instead of heavy footprints, or should I just bite the bullet and get a proper Tyvek ground cloth?

Friend swapped to Tyvek last summer and never looked back after his polycryo ripped on gravel.
