I'm done unloading 200 sq. ft. of solid black granite for the new kitchen floor. 
31 lbs per package x 40 = 1240 lbs and a sore back.

I'm noting that when considering spending significant amounts of money, I'd rather lay out the budget than scramble. 
and to let dave know that if she plans out a good budget, i think (i hope!!) you will be happy about your gift..

I'm wondering how these people on HGTV's "Designed To Sell" installed solid granite countertops for $1,000.

I'm wondering what size the counter was? Was it good quality granite? Did they self-install? Was the granite in large chunks (such as a whole length of counter) or was it more like large "tiles" of granite? Often, material in smaller sizes comes cheaper, because it can be taken from the "leftover" from a larger job...

I'm saying you could call it an average size kitchen; not huge and not small either. It was solid granite, not tiles. They had it installed by the contractors that did the other work on the house.

I'm wondering if Brant is looking for some new wheels...
