Cheap laminate dark walnut effect worktop - 2 meters

The cheapest I can find is Homebase's, it's about £65 with delivery (delivery is very cheap £3.95).

Does anyone know of anything cheaper?

Ideally I'd like the thinner 2.8mm worktop, as it's for a bathroom, rather than a kitchen.
Ikea do a 2.8mm but not in walnut effect.

    A quick search turns up Savoy Timber at £41.95 (or £46.95 cut to exact length). Delivery is £10 or £16 depending on distance/location.

    You could also try your local timber merchants and/or kitchen fitters and ask if they have any offcuts or seconds that would yield a 2 metre length. I'm guessing that for a bathroom, you probably don't need a full 600mm width so could tolerate a small bit of damage on the rear edge.

    I looked at them, it's nearly £25 delivery for me, so £67.

    I do actually need the full 600, it covers back into the window so it forms part of the windowcil.

    I'll try locals for off cuts, thank you.
