Oliie  would thump Menard from behind, grab his wallet while the dude was writhing on the ground dying, then negotiate to surplus off his merch with the widow.

Good stuff cheap!

Or you could just have a good friend in the flooring business and a co-worker who installs flooring on the side so you can beat the homebuilders bullshit $3.50 a square foot price for the new house. Boy he was mad at me, it was beautiful.

man...you're whipped!
now allow me to give you a woman's perspective (at least THIS woman's anyway):

we got new carpet recently. from menard's. had a buddy of the husband install it. living/dining area carpeted for roughly $400. i didn't give a rats patootie how much it cost/didn't cost, where we got it from, & the first color we both saw was the one we got.

If your hubby slips up I want on the list for next husband.


One thing most don't know is that I do actually have an occupation, of sorts.

I buy apartment buildings, usually run-down ones, usually small ones, (3-5 units, typically) and rehab them, get occupants and leases, and then re-sell the building. I do 99% of the work myself. (I'm out of the business for about a one year sabbatical, but that is what I do)

Through volume and relationships with suppliers, I have been able to purchase enough carpet and padding for 1300 bucks to do an entire friggin' apartment, installed...professionally. My wife obviously knows this, but that is "builder-grade" carpet, and she wouldn't even entertain talking to one of my suppliers... Hey, don't ask me- I just work here. lol

Him: (raising mug) "I have a roofing business. I'm too damn dumb to dig ditches."

...and before you think I'm insulting anyone, I am far cheaper than intelligent. I have never hired anyone to do my roofing, so I know with precision what he was saying. :thumbleft: I own a Senco PX150R. No sane man does that on his own volition.

Me either, and I have four or five other dumbass friends the same way. Bismarck had 2 hailstorms in 5 years, so I had to roof my first house twice.

I thought I'd just point out that carpet is for munching, preferably when staples and pads are not involved.

To the contrary, Porforis, I prefer my floors marble-smooth and prewarmed.
