Home Depot no longer offering military disount?

[TheGrey]

Has anyone else experienced this?

Shortly before Christmas, I was at the Home Depot over by Park Meadows, making a purchase. I pulled out my military ID, and was informed that they no longer give military discounts "except around the holidays." Nobody could tell me when this was enacted, or anything more specific than that.

The second week of January, I stopped in to see if it was a fluke, and the clerk gave me a military discount.

Yesterday, I stopped in and was informed again that there was no discount.

What the hell?

I go to Lowes.
To me HD is a mess to go into.
Lowes always gives the discount. Even to us retiree's!

I go to Home Depot. Had to register with email and phone number. Now every time I purchase, I get an email with the receipt in it. I like it. Just ask to be registered into their computer. When you check out with a purchase, request .mil discount and then show ID card. They then ask for phone number...maybe it is different near you, but it works here in Pueblo. I'd call on the phone to make sure of policy though.

Care to elaborate? They have always given me the mil discount when I've asked. The poster above you also receives his discount. Now please expand on your statement.

I have gotten it every time I go in.

Same here. I'll be checking with the Ft Collins HD this week though. If it's true, I'll go to Lowes from now on.

You stepped up, put yourself in harms way in defense of our nation and freedom and you expect a discount on home improvement goods? Have you no shame good sir?







Thank you for your service and screw HD and all of their crummy anti American practices. I get better help at Ace anyway.

Ah! No, I was not in harm's way (save for when the Turks were rioting.) I am a Cold War vet, and the closest I got to combat was packing up pallets for our troops for Operation Desert Shield. I am also not a 'good sir'- I was enlisted, and worked for a living!
