For about 50 bucks a sheet you can get laminate at home deopt so for less then 100 bucks you can put on new laminate. All you need to cut it is to score it close to the right size with an exacto knife and it just breaks along the line you cut. Then glue it on the counter top with water based contact cement. Then you need a router with a laminate bit and it trims it flush with the old countertop.

I did it to my old house only took a day and turned out really good. I was impressed with houw easy it was. I also painted down the cupboards and put new handles on them. For about $200 it looked like a brand new kitchen.
