Taps....they are so expensive!

Today I spent the morning making calls to try and get things sorted with the house so that it would all be ready to go when the council sends the plans back and the bank gives us the go ahead on the loan. The valuers for the bank requested a selections list from us so, due to the fact that I have no fax or scanner at the moment, I retyped the whole document and sent it to the loans officer before calling to find out that I'd have to get the original document to her anyway.

I then rang our cabinet maker and they suggested that it would be better if we bought our own taps instead of them trying to source them for us. So, I found the tap I wanted and called Reece Plumbing Supplies to find out how much my dream taps were. Let's just say I am glad I was sitting down as the guy on the other end of the phone told me they were $995. I quickly said, "ok, what else do you have that looks similar?" He took me to a website that had other taps on it and we chose our tap. Matt, Milly and I went in there this afternoon and bought them. That's one more thing off the list that is done. Yay!


The taps that I wanted to buy until I found out they were nearly $1000 each.



These are the ones we ended up buying for the laundry and kitchen.
