I still dont get why cutting an inch or two from the bottom to drill
into the studs
and run wires up a few inches to the outlets is a big deal. It really
isnt.
To put the outlets in, buy a few "old work" outlets, measure and cut
out
the sheetrock. Run all your wires, put the outlets into the walls and
click them in place. You are not ripping apart the walls and its
something
that any good electrician would do.

In the end it will look like the house always had it. Running wires
like
this looks crappy and will be flagged by an inspector some day. So why
bother?
