Im looking for something fairly nice, safe and inexpensive to bring homw for my kitties. Any suggestions on something relatively cheap that is built nicely? Ugly doesnt bother me, just safety and sturdiness.

I've priced them out and find that PetCo has the cheapest trees. Both PetSmart and PetCo have areas in the store where they have non-perfect items for sale at a discount. I've seen them there because of stains and stuff. Check them out in your area.

There's no place like home
Just make sure that they are made of wood and not cardboard. Walmart has some very inexpensive ones, but have a cardboard post. If your cats play hard at all, they won't last.

My husband and I make our own, so haven't priced them for a while. We're about to make another round for the humane society fosters starting next week. With donated materials, we can make 6 tall (3 foot) scratch posts for under $50.

I don't know exactly what you want, height etc, or how much money you want to spend but check out ebay. I got mine from there and I am fairly pleased with it.
