Wainscoting-Where can I get the best price

Does anyone know another place that might have a better price than Home Depot. The white beadboard panels are $45 each and I figure it will cost me $300 for the room we are doing, which belongs to my sons. I don't know if I want to spend $300...if I could find it a little more affordable, I'd probably reconsider.

Anyone get a better price elsewhere? TIA

I have no idea, but how big was each piece from Home Depot? (I'm asking for purely selfish reasons b/c I'm thinking of adding it to one of my rooms.)

Thanks!

If you going to be painting it you don't need the wood stuff - they make a poly version (it's white) that is less than 1/2 of that i'm sure.

Also call around to some of the lumber yards and they can prob give you a price over the phone...I don't know where you are but Wood Ply in Freeport is good and US Lumber in Lynbrook is good.

HTH...
