Search for "Copper Clad Boards SINGLE SIDED" there and you will find...
Didn't see boards in the size you wanted though...

Yeah I hate when you are using the search function at a site and what you want isn't listed under the obvious!

60 x 80 mm is 2.36" x 3.15"

Mouser p/n 590-503 is 1/16" (.062) thick, 1 oz. coppper, 3" x 5" for $2.75. They list the manufacturer as MG Chemicals, but I am fairly sure that's not the actual maker.

I offer a 3" x 4" piece of the same material, my SKU 0408, for $1.50. I buy it in  large lots, directly from a mill that cuts it to size for me, and my overheard is lower than Mouser's; you get a piece of the savings.

I am close to done with an article that will cover the board-making process, from cutting to size by score-and-snap through finished product.

Please do pay me a visit if you haven't already.

I always use the "product finder" and drill down through the categories, it's easier than wading through the bazillions of results you get sometimes.  Once you get to a reasonable amount of results, use those menus to shrink the results down to those that fit your criteria.

Or just order from Small Bear.  S'what I do.

Your terms are a little mixed up.

...blank fibreglass pcb?

That's an oxymoron... pcb stands for Printed Circuit Board. But, if it has a circuit "printed" into it, then it's not "blank". Like pyrop said, you want "copper clad"... which (as you now know) you will not be able to find if you search for "pcb".
