Habitat for Humanity - Students Get 20% Off!

Though the weather may still be screaming SUMMER, the days are surely getting shorter and the nights a lot cooler. We all have warm autumn-themed coffee drinks on the mind and suddenly the thought of snuggling up under a blanket on the couch with Intro to Molecular Biology actually sounds kind of nice.

Sleek desks and fun barstools? Yes!

Maybe I took it too far with that last one, but still, it is Back to School season and for that reason we're excited about Habitat for Humanity of Orange County's Back To School Sale.

The sale runs August 1st through August 31st. All you scholars can get 20% off your entire purchase with a valid student ID - Hurry!

But really, doesn't your pad need this papasan chair?!

Head to both the Anaheim ReStore and Santa Ana ReStore for this deal.

Shop for desks, chairs, sofas, dressers, artwork, entertainment centers, TVs, kitchen supplies, microwaves and more!

Cozy, classic mocha-colored couch. You could study on this, for sure!

Classic, sophisticated items like this cozy couch above are great, lasting pieces that will carry you into life after you graduate.
