Spending at the Home Improvement Stores: Looking Forward's ...

September 24th, 2011 at 02:17 pm

My DH and FIL are replacing the interior doors in our house this weekend. And just like any project that involves two men, moving parts, measuring; it's hitting a few snags. Wink

I'm just kidding. It's not their fault, it's more the house's fault. Each door frame is slightly askew. Not square or plumb. So each replacement door slab must be carefully fitted and trimmed. DH just headed out to buy a planer in order to shape the doors to fit in the best way. That'll be about $80. I bought paint last night and hinges. $71. We bought new handle sets a few at a time over the past few months at $29/set. $150 total for those.

Yeah, the home improvement stores are making money off us. Plus, I'll be buying tile soon.

The real kicker is they planned to use the paint sprayer my FIL brought to paint the doors tomorrow, and now the weatherman says it's going to rain!

Cross your fingers we'll have doors up soon so we'll have some privacy in the bathrooms!
