7. Assorted piles...
And many different designs.

Now, however, the total is up to about 200.

9. Brown. Blue. Silver.
We have them all. Though the backing might chafe your head a bit.

10. No, many different patterns...
We're going to deliver them to the Northwoods Humane Society tomorrow. The lady there said they had talked to one of the larger stores near them (I believe it was Home Depot) but they had already gotten rid of their samples.

We went around today to several stores and one of them gave us about 150 of them.

19. As the saying goes....
If I can't do great things at least let me do small things in a great way.

14. Homeowners...
<SNICKER> In our 675 square foot house we could probably do the wall to wall treatment.

16. Regular carpeting, I'm afraid...
And they are only samples and stuff used by the stores that no longer have any use for them.
