My local Reuse-It Center Just Saved me Hundreds

I'm rehabbing a 3/1 ranch built in 1950.  I've got 6 odd sized windows to replace.  I purchased one POC window that was close to $200 (custom) and wasn't in love with buying 3 more of that size, and 2 even larger odd sized.  I was considering some modifications to the opening to get into a more common, more affordable window.

Ran to lunch this week and decided to stop at my local ReuseIt.  They had an exact size of those 3 windows and a "close enough" size on the other 2.  Cost was $60 each for the 3 and $100 each for the other 2.  All 5 were brand new Simonton's with the wrap, styro, and stickers still on them.

Just bragging because I'm incredibly cheap and love finds like this.

Now if they only would have had interior doors that day!

What have you found?
