Tulip, for cabinets check the DIY warehouse stores for returned cabinets. People order cabinets and then either change their minds or don't have the money to complete the purchase and so their orders just sit in the stores until they are able to sell them at a fraction of their original cost. It probably isn't quite as steady a stream of returns now as it was a few years ago, but I know more than a few people who redid their kitchens this way.
Another possibility is to check homes in your area that are being foreclosed on. I know this sounds predatory, but people who are going to lose their homes will often strip them of anything that can be sold for cash, including kitchen cabinets and nearly new appliances.
