Re: My Big Fat Renovation

Thanks fellas

We're going to skip the floors for now. They're real hardwood, so they can be redone anytime. We have 2 dogs, and I just don't see the point right now. Once clean, they look nice still. This may also be something we save up for and have someone come in and do, get it done in a couple days, and be done with it.

I thought about that Geoff... seriously

And about that pile of money... you make it appear and I'll make it happen I hope to have that 67 Firebird down here by the end of the year.

msgross... we couldn't believe it either, BUT Lowe's can be just as expensive as everyone else, it all depends on the color. We asked them what they had "on special." The way I understood it, our Lowes uses 2 or 3 different local suppliers and they run specials every once in a while. I actually asked "what's your cheapest granite" and they showed us 4 or 5 different colors to choose from. Uba Tuba (what we have) is abundant so the price was much lower, the more colorful, or "different" looking colors are your more $ ones. Lowe's also pays the sales tax when you use their install services, and we got a free sink too!
