5% or over a $1000 is not $15.
The carpet was only $2 per square foot....a bargain in my book.

I knew someone would bring that up. The 5% off was just off the price of the carpeting, not the padding or labor. Further, that was off of Lowe's cost for the carpeting, not mine.
It was a bargain, but I would have avoided it had I known it would take longer than 4 weeks. We went with berber, which is apparently cheaper than standard carpeting (I always thought it was more expensive). My wife and I made this decision before setting foot in a store. The second reason was I got a big discount on the labor, as they don't have to move any furniture nor pull up the old carpeting. The third reason was that they were having a carpet sale in January, which would normally be a very slow month for them.
