ReStore Bargain Finds Gain National Spotlight


If you love a great deal, you’re not alone, and now even the TODAY Show is spreading the word about one of the best places to find those deals: Habitat for Humanity ReStores.

On Friday, September 26, 2025, NBC’s TODAY Show aired a segment titled “The Art of Bargain Shopping: How to Get the Deepest Deals.” Reporter Vicky Nguyen explored the world of thrifting and bargain hunting, highlighting Habitat’s 900+ ReStore locations nationwide as a top destination for incredible finds.

ReStores are nonprofit home improvement and donation centers where shoppers can discover both new and gently used furniture, appliances, building materials, décor, and more—often at a fraction of retail prices. Best of all, every purchase supports Habitat for Humanity’s mission to build and repair homes for families and individuals in need.

Here in Ventura County, your local ReStores in Oxnard and Simi Valley make it easy to shop with purpose. Whether you’re furnishing your home, tackling a DIY project, or simply treasure-hunting for something unique, your purchases help local families achieve safe, affordable housing.
