I'm glad I had my camera with me for this weeks
Mellow Yellow Monday!
I love finding a deal or maybe a steal
better than anything!
The Sweetheart and I are slowly
and I mean S.L.O.W.L.Y...
trying to remodel our 30 year old home
to be more handicap accessible.
It is S.L.O.W.L.Y...
driving me CRAZY!
But...
the Sweetheart is a wise and frugal man
and we are trying to pay as we go and
stay out of debt.
You know, in this economy
and everything.
And boy did we ever find a great deal
on Saturday, to good to pass up.
Glad that there was a fork lift around to lift this load up
in the back of the truck.

That is a pallet of 44 boxes
of 18 x 18 Latin Quarter Blue
of 18 x 18 Latin Quarter Blue
Porcelain tile.
And this is a picture of the Sweetheart
supervising the loading of said tile.
Crazy thing is ....
that is only half the tile I bought!
I had to leave the other full pallet at the ware house
to be picked up one day next week.
Original price of the tile was wholesale
warehouse price of $2.69 a square foot.
It was on sale for one day
only for .99 cents a square foot.
We think that was a great price and the fact that we both loved it is amazing.
Every piece is different and looks so cool laying out together.
It has blues, yellows, tans, blacks and browns and it's textured!
And the best part is that it will be great for dogs, kids and a mobility scooter/wheelchair.
And it won't easily show dirt!

Only thing is, it will still be weeks before we can get it laid.
Oh well, we will have it and it is ready when it's time to install.

OOOOOhhhhhhhhh.....this is lovely!
Unbelievably lovely!
Yay for a good, no GREAT deal!
I bet the guy on the forklift had never had his picture taken while at work.
What a great deal! I love the tile. It will be fun to see pictures of it when you're finished.
We are always in a state of slow remodeling. Takes forever!
Pictures when you are done?
Hi Gigi, That is an incredible savings and the tile is beautiful and perfect for your needs. Can't wait to see it on the floor!
I love the tile!
I am already talking about the things I would change, if this was my house. :)
Score!
congratulations on a great find! I love the variety of colours in the tile.
Oh wow that is a steal!!! Love the color of the tile!! Can't wait to see the finished floor ^_^ Happy Monday!

That tile looks GREAT. What room/rooms are you putting it in.
Good to buy it when it is on sale even if it can't get laid for awhile.
remodeling surely is a procedure isn't it.
Beautiful tile, great big bargain, and wonderful mellow yellow opportunity!
I'm constantly talking about remodeling, including this afternoon, and my husband is constantly ignoring me.

Gorgeous design of tiles!
My Mellow Yellow, please come and see.
A great, back-saving invention: the forklift!
COLOR DILEMMA
Yellow or red—which shall it be?
Red for you and yellow for me?
Perhaps you’d rather have yellow instead—
Which leaves me, of course, with handfuls of red!
Whichever hue you decide to choose,
I’ll take the other—no one will lose!

Wow--what a deal.
I love it.
I bet it will be so beautiful when it is done--can't wait to see it.
