In a cabinet? If so sam’s has some for $20 plus shipping. Best price I found after Aldi had them same price in store. They are sturdy and I love them.

Easiest way is to get one of those put-it-together-yourself bookcases, a board the same length and width as the bottom of bookcase AFTER it's put together, a handle of some sort for pulling it, and four good quality casters. Attach the board to the bottom of the book case. Attach the casters to the board. Attach the handle to the side that faces out at a comfortable height to pull. Voila - rolling shelves.

If the shelves are going to hold heavier stuff, you will probably want to use a strong or heavy duty handle and bolt it on with some large washers on the back. Also, for heavier stuff, you will want to reinforce the corners of the bookcase with L brackets.

If you are using the shelves as a rolling pantry, you will also want to add a railing or fence along the exposed edge so your stuff doesn't fall off when you roll it. Weird as it might sound, Yardsticks from the paint department work well for this. They're fun just as they are or you can paint them to match or contrast with the shelves.

If the back of the bookcase will be visible, some paint or wallpaper or contact paper glued on or fabric tacked on will hide it nicely.

I've done several versions of this as well as building the shelves from scratch. They are simple and very, very useful.
