Shopping for bedroom carpet continues.
And you can tell one of us is not having a good time.
.
.
This is not my fault as I found the perfect carpet on day one… but my husband swore he could find something comparable for less money so we kept shopping.
.
.
This was an interesting display.
.
.
Made even more so by the fact it opened for samples.
.
.
After another whirlwind weekend tour of flooring stores, my husband chose carpets he thought were close to the shade we wanted. Even though I (and numerous salespeople) assured him they weren’t.
.
.
Ironically the two large sample boards he brought home were very close to the price point of my original choice which kind of defeats the purpose… no?
.
.
And since none of them were the right shade (again), my spouse is slowing coming around to the realization he should have just agreed to my selection a few weeks ago and called it a day.
Men.
They always have to do things the hard way.

River's world..... 
Or you could say that he thoroughly explored the alternatives to come to an informed decision.
Or you could say that wall is a whole lot of boredom. Subtly different beiges. Subtly different greys. A little dirt and they’d all look the same.(Seriously, for the Godfrey Hirst picture, I think they cut a grey carpet into a dozen pieces to make you think you were looking at 12 choices on the left board.)

I could say that… but I won’t. 😉
And yes, those squares were disturbingly similar.

Uh huh….I remember spending a whole day visiting various electronics stores only to circle back to buy the first TV (the one I wanted) at the very first store we visited. I guess in their defense men are not as accomplished and efficient at shopping as most ladies are. We don’t have time to screw around and when we know we are seeing what we want at the price point we’re comfortable with a decision can be made with lightning speed…so we can move on to the next task!!!

I’m all about price comparison shopping, hell… I saved almost 2k on our furniture… but when you find something perfect? Just pull the trigger.

I agree, the hubs should just start to trust your instincts. In a perfect world, your remodel would have been finished last summer, lol.

We always come back to my first choice. Living room floor, living room furniture, stain color. Life would be so much easier if he would just listen to me.

A padded room at a mental institution needs no decoration: no carpet, no floors, no furniture. Seriously, you (or your husband) might want to consider it.
