WALK ON TILE

     How soon one should walk on newly laid floor tile is generally 24hrs or so.  This is assuming normal amounts of adhesive was used under them and good conditions.  
     Drying time on many adhesives will be affected by temperature or moisture conditions.  And one wouldn't apply adhesive over a surface that exceeds moisture emissions listed on the package.
     Walking on newly laid tile prior to dying may cause them to slip out of alignment with the other tiles or cause breakage.

EXCUSE TO BROWSE HOME IMPROVEMENT STORES:

     The primary benefits of frequenting a home improvement store (to buy or just to look around) includes getting-in-on clearance and spot sales, looking for ideas on home decor or repair,  and for price comparing.  In some cases, when employees become familiar with some shoppers, it opens up opportunities that might not be available otherwise.
     We recently bought a brand new, unopened and undamaged set of vertical blinds for our patio doors... for one dollar ($1).  
     I recently bought my first LED light bulb (which fits into a regular light bulb fixture).    The salesman who answered my questions mentioned that they were recently on sale for 50% off but the sale was over.  I was also buying a cook stove that day.  And, while waiting for something the clerk was doing on the computer, I mentioned that I wish I had gotten in on that sale... he decided to give me 10% off the item.  This was almost $2 in savings.
     So, if one has the combination of interest in home repair and a nose for bargains, there can be a good deal of benefit to using home improvement stores as a form of entertainment.
