I recently had an eye-opening experience at Habitat for Humanity ReStore,
and I couldn’t wait to share it. We were working on a restoration project for
a woman who has been living in a home without a kitchen for 15 years. It
was high time we changed that and ReStore turned out to be a treasure
trove for our needs.
Walking into Habitat for Humanity ReStore felt like stepping into a
construction enthusiast’s paradise. If you haven’t been yet, let me paint a
picture: it’s like a candy store for anyone who’s into home improvement and
is on a tight budget. We struck gold with a brand-new, top-of-the-line black
and stainless-steel gas stove for just $275. Yes, you read that right. We also
found a dishwasher that was practically new for only $40, laminate plank
flooring for kitchen, living room and hall, stone backsplash, 16 cabinets and
the primer for all of them. We snagged it all for under $2,000. The savings
were incredible!
But ReStore isn’t just about construction materials. It’s a haven for all sorts
of home-related finds. From clothes and curtains to room-sized rugs, décor,
and paint, they have just about everything you might need. It’s also a
fantastic place to donate items you no longer need, knowing that your
unwanted goods can help fund important projects and support communities
in need.
So, the next time you’re out and about or looking to refurbish your home or
rental, consider checking out a Habitat for Humanity ReStore. You’ll be
surprised at the high-quality items you can find at a fraction of the cost—and
you’ll be supporting a great cause in the process. It’s a win-win situation
that’s definitely worth exploring!
