What should I use for my patio flooring?

I have a 600 sf patio I need to have flooring put down. It's not covered yet but I would love to have pavers put on it - but these seem so pricey! Does anyone have ideas on other products - I have checked into stamped concrete, masonary stone and cement as well... all very pricey. I have about $6000.00 to spend on it. Thanks.

Treated lumbar usually costs about 8-10$ per sq foot, which would work with your budget, and looks great!!
Go to Home Depot and buy paver maker form, we bought the cobblestone pattern they have several different styles, and out of one 80# bag of concrete you can get about 1 .5 forms filled. The forms make a 24 x24 inch paver. You can rent a cement mixer for about $40 a day which makes it so much easpier. We had several large areas that needed filled and then made pathways connected to them due to shaded areas where grass would not grow. This has been an ongoing project for us since we are not spring chickens anymore, lol but love the look! We also wait for concrete to go on sale which really brings down the overall costs.
