Sounds like you wont be installing yourself, just take it somewhere and have it done.

No need to buy pads.

When they start squeaking or if that "stops like a champ" feel goes away

Mileage will vary. Some guys needs pads at 20k, others get well into the 60k's and still have plenty of pad left. If you drive with efficiency in mind most of the time, you'll find you rarely use your brakes other then slowing from posted speed to stop at a light or stopsign. Avoid regular hard braking, and you'll last a good long time, and do everything possible to avoid using brakes at high speed...moderate your accelerator with antisipation, and again, you'll find you don't use your brakes much at all...
