carpets

After living in rehab I've been told I can apply for my own flat again :j I am trying to save up some money for flooring.
Would anybody be able to give me an idea of how much it would be to carpet a single size bedroom, hallway, living room, bathroom and kitchen.
I know it can only be an estimate as I don't have sizes. I would need to pay for it putting down too. Many thanks :)
:j £2 coins = £2.00 :j

    Here's some examples of rooms I've had carpeted recently with roll ends:

    10foot6" x 11foot - roll end £65, underlay £30, fitting (inc. grippers) £30 - total £125
    10foot6" x 6foot6 - roll end £35, underlay £20, fitting(inc. grippers) £20 - total £75

    My bedroom (10foot6" x 10foot) was carpeted (off the roll) with a "cheapest in the shop" carpet and it cost about £250:eek: (with underlay) nearly 4 yrs ago. Can definitely get better quality for the money with roll ends.
