Default bulk 3/32 (2mm) bulk plywood for laser cutting source?

Anyone have a source for 3/32 and 1/8 plywood at good prices? Need some to produce some laser cut kits.

I got some 3/32 Plywood at Aircraft Spruce and it cost about $40 per 4 by 4 sheet. Is marked 2 MM, but I found a lot in the one stack ALL widths marked the same or not.

Thus if feasible, try 1/8 inch or 3 MM plywood. Is about 1/3rd the cost and once laser cut is difference of only a few grams. The plans may say 3/32 but you can adjust for cost faster by using 1/8 inch, as available many places.
