Working upper management in a small company some years back, we had to constantly watch what we did because it was so easy to think just that. Luckily, we had a competent crew of people around us who could give us the best stuff for cost (cabinetry, construction, interior design etc) instead of for retail. But it was always a temptation. My bosses struggled with it constantly, especially because they had the money to do it the expensive "best" way. I suspect that they've given up that struggle and jsut spend the money now withouth thinking. oh well. A
