Over by the check out at contractor's sales is a cart FULL of high pressure laminate. It is chiped, cracked etc, but is 75% off! Colors were primarly white or beige. Sheets range from 4'X8' to 2'X4'. Didn't have time to do an absolute price check, but this means about $15.00 for a 4'X8' sheet. Now is the time to stock up if you need any. Be sure to learn how to roll sheets for transport. Sheets that have been stored rolled up can be ironed on the backside to straighten them.  Have fun! |

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

And after standing around watching the idiot circus that is Home Despot for about 20 minutes, with one clown running around trying to find a manager, another telling me that I had flooring, and a third asking me what I was wanting to buy (I was holding the sheets), I got my purchase rang up. $8.54 with tax.
Thanks for the heads up Bruce...there is still more there, and some nice looking stuff.
BTW, there was nothing wrong with the sheets I bought, not even a chipped corner or edge
