I was just checking out Derek Guyers post on his rehab tips.  I added one suggestion that I am now going to tell you about.

If you are rehabbing a home, building your personal home, flipping a home, remodeling or just need some basic repairs, consider your local Habitat for Humanity ReStore.  This is where builders and contractors bring their items removed from another remodel or maybe another rehab and donate to Habitat for Humanity for a tax donation credit.  Some of these items are in excellent condition, some may need a little repair and some are brand new.

 I have personally purchased closet organizers, vinyl flooring, antique door knobs, chandeliers, and shower fixtures.  I have seen entire bathtubs, paint cans, oak hardwood flooring, parquet flooring, vanities, furniture and almost anything else you can think of.

Clayton North Carolina's Habitat for Humanity ReStore is located off Main Street behind the Post Office in the old Clayton Spinning Mill.  The Raleigh store has a new location off Capital Blvd.

And it all goes back into the communities we serve.  Be sure to spread the word.

TRACY, Thanks for the scoop as I didn't know Habitate for Humanity had any stores such as this. Going to see if they have one in my neck of the woods.

I don't think we have one nearby, but will definitely mention it to our Habitat group to see what they say.

Hi, Tracy,

I just found you when you commented on my blog... thank you!  I love Habitat for Humanity, and I'm so glad you posted this.  I have donated to the store here, but never thought of buying these items for remodeling.  Great idea!

I also came over to see your blog because you commented on my blog.  =)  I didn't know that Habitat for Humanity had something like this.  I'm going to check my area to see if we have one. 

This is a wonderful resource!

Hi Tracy:  I found it!  We have a ReStore here in Sacramento as well.  I would never have guessed if I had not visited your blog.

Tracy, this is good information. Thanks for sharing. I'll definitely check out my local Habitat store when it's time for me to rehab my next house.
