Every year, Brad and I do some sort of remodel to our house.  This year we decided to redo our floors in our living room, hallway, and dining room.  We wanted to replace the carpet and put in laminate floors.  To save money, we decided to install it ourselves with the help of some of our friends.  We purchased all of our products from Lowe's.  We decided to get a Lowe's Credit Card since we would get 5% off all of our purchases.  I think it saved us somewhere between $100-$200.  They also have some special weekends where you can get 10% off.
