I'm toy-less right now too with with no funds for another stang, but got a new crib and a newly renovated backyard! My backyard actually just got finished this week while I was out of town...I'll post pics tonight.
Sucks not to have any stangs in the stable, but being able to enjoy a new house with family and friends is priceless.

I guess it pays to shop as a buddy of mine in the Oakland hills had pavers for a driveway , walk way and backyard done as at 10/sq foot. Also included some misc stuff like adding sod.Total job was 12k. Here's the front. The owner branched off from system pavers and decided to open up his own [ 2013-05-18, 11:04 PM: Message edited by: venomous99 ]

We paid 8k for everything. However, we did get a friend of a friend deal. I'm not sure what we would have paid if we were just regular customer. I had several other quotes just to replace the drive way and patio. No stamping or extending of the driveway like we did. Cheapest quote we got for that was $8,800.
So, I am sure the work we got would have been over $10k easy without the friend of friend discount. I'll throw some final pics up here soon. Been busy studying for finals.

I used to work at home depot. I always wondered what "Dobies" were used for!! LoL
Would a drive way using interlocking paver stones be easier and look better??

Paving stones are the cream of the crop. However, don't be fooled. That is a great looking paver job above, but I'm interested to see it in 5 years. Good chance it will no longer be even. Pavers are hard to make perfect, when you do they last forever.
