Love the Restore!!

I had bought thousands of dollars of materials at my local Lowes and Home Depot for the project. I had heard of the Habitat for Humanity Restore in Struthers, Ohio but had never been there. I did not how to get there. More than half way through the project we finally went.
One day a friend went with David and I to show us where it was. It was the beginning of a great love affair lol.
I found things there and was able to return items bought retail, this saved some good money for us. Over the past almost year I have bought a lot of building supplies, furniture, fixtures, stove for the downstairs unit, lighting and home accessories from there.
We bought so much the cashier asked us once we were dealers, coming in to buy things to resell. Of course we are not and said no. Last week I spent a few dollars and bought a few small things. The cashier joked must be a slow week and was that all we were buying lol.
The staff there are really nice people. I like going there, which I do several times a week. You never know what you are going to find and their prices are great (which was a blessing as by the time this fall hit the money well went dry on us).
I highly recommend checking them out. You can save a ton of money and find really unusual things.I think they are nationwide, so a lot of local communities have them.
They do great work, including building houses for veterans. Everything you buy goes to helping their cause, which I really think is great.
