    Went from a garage with only 6 outlets, so I went a lil crazy, but I didn't really figure out a layout before hand so this ensures I have them where ever I put something.

    I got it through the bid room at homedepot, it was the cheapest, but probably the most work too.. I got the time and probably saved 250, so went that route, was a lot of work though, about 30 mins each section.
