Boston Building Materials Co-op has what I need!
My husband and I recently became a member of Boston Building Materials Co-op. We were able to purchase blue rain barrel for cheap price ($60) compared to one that we've bought at on-line store 
for $199 + SH. The blue one will be hidden from public views. I didn't realize we have 5 pipes coming down from our gutter! Our 65 gallon barrel is completely full in one rainy day last week...
We were also able to purchase compost for $35! To be a member, it costed us $25, but materials they have are great. For our kitchen, I wanted to re-model in sometimes in the future (before in like 10 years) and was thinking about counter tops that were made out of recycled glass (http://www.icestone.biz). Well, they had the samples and I was able to touch them, see them, and admire them! May be remember from the posting back in the days? (http://blogs.simmons.edu/node/167)
Well, they are going to help us up to 2 hours to come up with blue prints and materials for fee! And i also discovered this material from kirei that I may want to build some furniture including cabinets. kirei is comprised with grass, it makes a great alternative to wood.
I'm so excited with all these materials that we can use for our new kitchen. Now, all i need is to win some lotteries!
