You can also make your own.

Scott Fresener told us how years ago, and still has this up on his site.

Modify any of the texture fills by converting to black and white in the fill properties. Convert those to black and white bitmaps and use the bitmap color mask tool to make the background transparent and wallah  Custom distressed filters in a snap

Another option is to use a pencil and scratch / scribble over an entire sheet of paper. Scan in as a B&W image and there ya go. 

You can even go as far as doing a charcoal rub on textures around your house and yard. Scan and convert to B&W.

I also use this and its awesome and pretty cheap. You are able to do things with a click of the mouse which is really cool and fast

I use Scott Fresener's pattern too. It's my favorite, but I've also done some of my own. Once I crumpled up a piece of wax paper, then flattened it back out and scanned it, then tweaked the values with the tone curve tool. Came out pretty cool!
