Reply to LPT: A good financial habit to get into is treating money as hours of work. Ask yourself how many hours of work something would take if you buy it. The awareness of the amount of time you put into purchases helps reduce compulsive spending. by humvee911
And use your after-tax income to do the calculation. You might earn $30/hr, but after Social Security, State, and Federal taxes you really only get to spend around $20.

Yes, the height difference will make a difference. Definitely fix that before you lay the finished floor or you'll feel it every time you step on it. But it's easy to fix. Just use some strips of heavy paper or thin cardboard on top of the joists and then screw down the OSB on top of them. As many layers as necessary to make up the difference.
