Habitat ReStore-Last Saturday of the Month Sale

So a few weeks ago I hopped into the Habitat for Humanity ReStore on a Saturday.  It happened to be the last Saturday of the month.  I was greeted by THIS SIGN!  Which you know made me happy!



Who knew this even existed?  Not me!  I'm assuming this happens at all ReStores but I was at the Hanover, VA location. 
Find out if you  have a ReStore near you HERE!

Here is a list of all the additional mark-downs.

I shopped around and found something that caught my eye!

It retails for $160 on Amazon.com
 (http://www.amazon.com/Sea-Gull-Lighting-51074-962-Three-Light/dp/B000CRUL6E

I got it from the ReStore- BRAND NEW in box- for $16
ReStore price was 65.00 then take 75% off for the Saturday Sale!

I got it to replace the "boob" light in our entry
Here is the before:


And here is the AFTER:




Did you all know the Habitat ReStores sell new items along with the donated used ones?  I think they are items that were overstocked and donated by the manufacturers.

I would highly recommend visiting on the last Saturday of the month!  LOTS of good deals to be had! 
They had TONS of these brand new entry lights in case anyone else wants to get a "boob" job!

    Wow. First, what a transformation! And second, that is incredible about the ReStore sale! I'm going to have to call a few around me and see if they have the same deal. Love love love ReStores!
