$5,000 for Counter Tops!

The wife and I have been saving up to get new counter tops for the kitchen. So we took our measurements and headed down over to Home Depot to get a quote. After waiting for 30-minutes and still not getting anyone to help us, we left and went to Lowes. At Lowes, we met Jerry in the Kitchen department and he was very helpful. He took our measurements and submitted them to the "main" counter top area.

It took almost a week to get the quote back from Lowes and they want approximately $5,000 for the installation and counter tops. I might agree that this would be a fair quote if we had an 1,000 square foot kitchen, but we have a small kitchen. Jerry even commented that the quote seemed way out of line for the size of our kitchen.

I am going to go over there later and see what the heck happened...
