Does your local yellow pages list an insulation wholeseller? That would probably be your best price.

Google your liner brand and insulation. Get out the instalation manual or down load it at your liner brands web site to see how thick and what else you need.
These are just two I found. People do buy off ebaY also.

This is metal jacketed sections of ceramic blanket insulation around a 6" Heat-Fab Saf-T Liner pipe.

As there are many optons and requirements always use the insulation and procedures your liner manuafacture instalation manual calls for.

Is it common to insulate the liners?
I had a chimney sweep check out my chimney's while i was getting ideas on what to do for a fireplace insert and hey wanted to liner my oil boiler chimney. He mentioned nothing about insulating it. I have a feeling he just wanted to overcharge me for an easy job on that one.

It really depends on the liners listing. Alot of times for an oil burner the insulation is not required. I'm sure someone who knows more than me will be along to correct me here any second now.

I questioned even needing a liner with the oil burner. Its not like the chimney didn't already have a flue lining. My biggest worry was the chimney losing bricks and looking a bit drunk. That's the only reason I wanted an estimate in the first place, but this guy was all about co2 poisoning and lining that chimney, and then in the spring doing the masonry work.

For 500$ and some garnered courage(my roof is high and steep) I could install the liner if the chimney really needed it, the mark up in the estimate he gave me was crazy, well over 2k for materials and installation.

For a wood stove it is a big plus .
