square foot. Where as the Corian I believe started in the forty dollar
range.

I was at Home Depot yesterday and they had a display at the entrance
advertising granite countertops for $49 a square foot installed. Now,
that is probably for just one or two colors, but it is a lot less than
$90/sq ft.

Corian must have come way down in price if you can get it for $40/sq ft.

I can't recall exactly what was priced what, but I remember we started
around the 40 some dollar price range and went all the way up to around 90
bucks a square foot. The granite being the most expensive and I want to say
quartz came in second to the top in pricing. All the other choices were
grouped between those two price ranges. They may advertise a certain
price, although I've never seen granite advertised at $49, but once you
start giving them measurements and deciding on the type of finished edge you
want, everything starts going up in price per square foot. Granted, the
salesman did say that the granite I chose was their most expensive style. I
believe it was called Blue Pearl. It also comes in a black pearl. Sales
guy said those two particular colors were the most expensive granite they
carried. Of course I didn't know that when I chose the color. They were
all just grouped there together, and that was my color choice out of all the
granite they had.
