Score!

Today we ventured out for appliance shopping, estimates on new counters, new floors and popcorn scraping supplies. We spent hours in home depot wheeling and dealing with much success! Here's what we learned!

Pay attention to the details! We stumbled upon, not one, not two but THREE mis-marked price tags, and when we pressed the issue awkwardly the manager on three different occasions signed off on the lower price tag - yay! Our largest discount was over $100 off on our undermount stainless sink!

Price check items and then compare to their online sales! On our stainless fridge we saved $400.

Milk the military discount for all it's worth. 5% off all our home depot sales!

Ask about future promos - which is how we learned about how to buy our kenmore washer and dryer at 20% off.

It was a grueling day pounding the aisles of HD, Lowes, and Sears but somehow it didn't wear down the high of buying our first sink - yay!

Quartz Silestone counters - check!
Allure flooring - check!
Undermount sink - check!
Supplies for popcorn ceiling removal - check!
Fridge, Dishwasher, Microhood, Washer, Dryer - check!
Back Splash - check!
Showerheads - check!

Next on the agenda - paints, demolition supplies, cabinet refinishing supplies, pulls, wine insert project, kitchen floors, tract replacements, pendant lighting, island stools, blind paint, buy the clearance rug, bathroom vanities, bathroom mirrors, faucets, lumber for mantle/fireplace project, shelves, shower curtains, bathroom lighting, and crown.
