If you're looking for bargain-priced or unusual building materials and home decorating items, check out the nationwide network of ReStores operated by the nonprofit organization Habitat for Humanity. They sell donated building materials including windows, doors, lumber, paint, appliances, and just about anything else needed to build or decorate a home. It's a chance to save money and the Earth’s resources, while supporting a good organization at the same. Remember, Habitat is always looking for donated materials, too.
