However, since I was successful in finding an awesome job, perfectly suited to me once again, I am now able to get back in and do some volunteering at the ReStore! (Note to self: keep this new, perfect job forever!).
So I baked a plate of brownies for my Sunday volunteering cohort, Tony, and we got down to work today.
Stuff comes and goes so quickly in the ReStore, it is amazing. If you are in or around our area, stop by once a week. Putnam's hours are Friday & Saturday 9am-3pm, and Sunday 10am-3pm.You never know what you will find!
Right now there are awesome deals on dishwashers, stoves, window air conditioners, tile for walls & floors, lights of all sorts, and furniture galore. A lady today got a small used tv for her bedroom for $10. We tested it out, and it worked perfectly. There are all sorts of construction items for "do it yourselfers".
Conversely, if you are or know a contractor with old cupboards, sinks, etc, to get rid of after doing renovations, the ReStore is a great place to have them donate these things.
Best of all, the monies are used to complete the Habitat of Northeast CT's current builds. A great cause!
I know I can go on and on about this topic, but stop in and talk to one of the volunteers, and you will also become addicted to Habitat for Humanity!
I am a Putnamaniac because I have a Habitat ReStore to volunteer at right in Putnam!
