Shop for Flooring...

Past 2 weeks, Joseph has been requesting quotes on our new house's flooring.

Finally we decided to hire a contractor to do it. This contractor is cheaper and we need to buy the material we want.

Last Saturday, we went to 2 Home Depot, 1 Lowes, and 1 tile store.

Yesterday, we went to another Home Depot and Lowes near our new house.

Finally we found the one I like and within our budget. (Joseph said I'm too picky...)

Here's our laminate floor. (Pergo Springdale Dark Cherry Glueless Laminate Flooring) 

Here'r our tiles. (12"x12" Texas Beige and 6"x6" Canyon)

 

We bought all these in Lowes. (This is a nice store.)

Right now Lowes has 15% off on in-stock laminate floor.

Plus Joseph got a 10% off coupon from har.com.

This is really a cool experience. It is too bad that we do not have enough time and budget to shop for more.

I believe this is a good opportunity for a first-house owner like us.

Because of this experience, we notice our difference more.

Joseph cares more about the value and practicability but I am more artistic.

so we came to an agreement.

He set the limit and I make decision.
