Shopping For Carpet LAFAYETTE — Carpeting can be a great financial investment. Most consumers find themselves going through four stages before making such a purchase, says Miss Sandra Westall, extension housing specialist at Purdue university. First stage: Consigner looks at the old carpet and begins thinking, "how awful it looks.’’ Second stage: Consumer begins listening to television and radio commercials and looking at carpeting advertisements in newspapers and magazines. Third stage: Consumer begins shopping and often becomes confused by such terms as fibers, backing, and cleanability. The buyer hears many different things from different salesmen. By this time the buyer should know what color she wants and start deciding what texture and quality will fit the family needs. Fourth stage: Color, texture, and quality have now been determined and it’s time for the final decision. A word of caution — if you get confused during stage three, take a 30-day vacation from carpet shopping, suggests Miss Westall. When you come back to the subject, you might have decided that the old carpet isn’t so bad after all. Mr. and Mrs. Dewey Fox, Steve and Beckey Brown attended the wedding of Darby Unzicker and Linda Kuhns Saturday evening at the New Paris Church of the Brethren.
