On a related subject, don't forget about the Habitat for Humanity ReStore in your city. The stock varies all the time and you can get some real bargains on new household goods and construction materials that were donated to Habitat for Humanity but couldn't be used in their builds. I've bought a new Kichenaid trash compactor in the box for $35 and a used but in very good condition Steelcase Leap chair for $15. Those were exceptional deals but it's always worth checking out for lesser but still good deals.
