Went to see the kitchen place again last night. They had in the showroom a kitchen with the granite and the formica. The formica is fine, nothing wrong with it or anything. but... SHINY SHINY GRANITE was so much prettier.
So I asked for a quote for the kitchen with granite as well as the one with formica.

She called today and while it is (as she'd said) about 1.7k more, it still comes in under what I had decided the Ultimate Limit of budget was (I had 2 limits - Roughly What Would Be Ok, which the first estimate was just under, then the Ultimate Pay No More Than This No Matter What Shiny Thing You See Limit ;p), while still leaving plenty for tiling and floor stuff.

But of course how can I make a major decision without consulting lj?
So, POLL.

[Poll #1301472]

Tho you can probably guess what way I'm leaning ;p

ETA only one lone Voice of Sense and/or Reason out there? Just one?

ETA2 Off to see the Nice Kitchen Lady now, discuss it all with her and decide. Will let you all know later ;p

ETA3 And teh winner is...

Granite !

um, I should add this was based on much more than 'oooh shiny' and 'lj said so'. I'm not quite *that* insane.
