Albany Habitat ReStore

Lots of stuff. A bit unorganized. The Salem store is more organized. But found what I was looking to find.

First time at this Restore location, the store sells items donated to them. So if you are looking for something, you may or may not hit the jackpot, it depends on the donations. My son was looking for tools, but didn't find what he wanted there today, but plans on visiting this location again. There were plenty of screwdrivers and nails, mirrors and some chairs among other items for sale. I use a walker, so I look to see how easy the aisles are to navigate, they were nice and wide, with arrows for direction marked on the floor. However, I pretty much stuck to the front of the store as I found something I definitely wanted to buy for one of my grandchildren, a wooden rocking horse! I guarded it so others couldn't buy it until my son could carry it to the check out for me! Something to know, at this Restore location you have to load and unload your stuff yourself. Other Restore locations will help you. Prices were pretty fair, reasonable.

I LOVE the Habitat Restore. They always have so many interesting and useful things. I always find things I hadn't realized I needed. The prices are usually very good. They have a large selection that changes regularly. They have daily and weekly discounts on items. I can usually find whatever I need at the Restore. Its definitely worth walking through the whole store.

I love shopping at all the habitat restore stores in the local areas. The Albany store has a nice layout with aisleways that are wide and easy to maneuver through for the most part. The sinks and cabinets area is a little tighter to get through but well worth checking out if you need anything from those areas. I was however rather disappointed by their outdoor setup. It appears as though you can only access it through an outside gate and while a number of the items appear for sale none of them have any prices on them. It's really difficult to determine what's what in the outside yard. I think it would really benefit them if they were to do a better job of marking things or making it clearer what the prices were on the outdoor items. You think you can tell what's not for sale because it has areas with signs that say "employees only" but other than that it appears you have to ask an employee. Problem is there weren't any employees to ask the prices of things and you can't walk directly from the outside area to the inside area with an item to find out it's price. It definitely stopped me from possibly buying a couple of items because I didn't want to go back inside after I'd already bought things from there to find out the price of something. I figured if they were still there next time I'd ask about them but for now I was done shopping for the day.
