    Anyway, You can get them made up in Tesco from your own photo's, but they seem very small. I think Boots did them, too.

    I have slate ones. Some were bought as table mats...but I needed more and didn't like the price. So I bought budget slate tiles. :) They look great, were cheaper. A little felt on the underside stops them scratching bare wood.

    i got these for 2 pounds at a local market. It was a set of 6 with 6 matching coasters - they were rejected by the big store so the market traders go and get broken/unwanted/rejected items from them and sell them cheap.

    Also got a nice pair of trainers with one tiny scuff mark - 60 quid in the store, tenner! It only would have taken me 5 minutes to get the first scuff anyway.

    Have a look around a local market or car boot. They're one of those items that are only good if they match the rest of the kitchen or table so you might find a few up for grabs from various places.
