Who has the cheapest kitchen cabinets in Florida?
I need to match up some cheap apartment cabinets but even ikea is too nice! So I want to know who sells the cheapest cabinets in FL so I can ask them if they have anything that is close to what I have here - 5/8" plain white melamine pressed wood all around, flat, not even shaker style.

From what you described I think you are talking about flat melamine cabinets that were really common in the late 80's and 90's remodels. Did you know that you can repair the peeling melamine? It is an iron on strip and you just use a regular clothes iron to put it on and then clean up the edge with a metal file. My rental has these and they were in decent shape except for the sink base which was falling apart. I had a handy man build me a new box out of the melamine sheets you can get at Home Depot. I re-used the doors and hinges. Then I cleaned up all of them with bleach, put new handles on them, and a new formica counter top. The plumber who came back to hook up the sink actually asked if I had put in new cabinets!
