Have you ever seen an item at ReStore that looks similar to something you saw at a big box or home goods store? Chances are the item you noticed was donated by another company! Our generous donors provide us with furniture, light fixtures, building supplies, and more. Read on to learn more about new donated products at ReStore.
Our donors give with the intention of supporting our mission. We develop strong partnerships with other businesses, and most donate at least quarterly. Consistency is important to us, but we are always on the lookout for new partners. Both ReStore and shoppers like you benefit from the donations of partners new and old. When they have extra inventory or need to make space for new designs or models, we often receive new donated items to sell at ReStore.
When we receive these donations, we split the items between our stores in New Brighton and Minneapolis. You may be able to find more of these products in New Brighton, simply because the store is bigger, so explore both locations to see what you can find.
Because of the generosity of our business donors, we want to make sure we maximize our impact for Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity's mission. You may see a higher price on these new items compared to used donated items for sale, but we always keep quality in mind when pricing. And even our highest-quality items are usually sold for at least half of retail price. (We also adjust prices if items have been on the floor for a while, usually after a month or so.) That means you'll find a great deal on these new, name-brand items while knowing your purchase still makes a difference. Our new donated items are not marked any differently than other items at ReStore. Be sure to stop by our locations in Minneapolis and New Brighton if you're curious to see what we've received recently.
