That is a brilliant price Lizzy. I wonder how much laying would cost. You might be able to negotiate it - if they want your business. Although in Queensland there will be a big demand for carpet I guess.

Its $215/broadroom metre layed..so its $1995 for all 3 rooms. Its $54/sq. Is that still a good price? We can't afford that anyway...

Oh drats. My 2nd choice would be a Stainmaster carpet with a cut twist pile. This is what I have now. The only negative is the carpet can bleach from moisturisers and ointments. So when i moisturise my feet I put on socks every morning. But it doesn't stain from food and wine etc and doesn't flatten.

Finally remembered what our carpets were:

in tempting taupe - I love them.

But we only had 2 small bedrooms done so it was fairly cheap

You are welcome Lizzy.
Is this still stretching the budget though?
