I'm going to have new carpet installed but I was wondering why I need carpet 
in the closet.  The old carpet that came with the house was installed in the 
closet, as are most wall to wall carpeting jobs I've seen.

I'm going to tile the kitchen and bath floor, so was thinking I could just 
tile the closet floors also (myself).  The tile would have high durability 
but low visibility so it wouldn't clash with the carpet.

I'm wondering also if I'll get a break on price because the installers won't 
have to cut the puzzle pieces for the carpet floor.
