I have been shopping at Home Depot ever since their landing in the Roseburg, Oregon area. It was also an incentive to continue buying from Home Depot instead of Lowes or other home improvement stores because of Home Depot offering a military discount to all military personnel regardless of the number of years they may have served. For example, on April 26th, I purchased several plants and received a discount, and again on May 03, I purchased more plants and was abruptly refused a discount.
I was informed by the clerk that this program was only for military personnel that retired from the service with 20 years or more! This was confirmed by the assistant manager when I called him on the phone. I joined the Air Force to contribute to my country for 6 years and also retired from lawenforcement in the state of California with a job related disability. I have always been thanked for my service in both careers and I thought I was being appreciated by Home Depot also because oftheir discount to anyone that served in the military. This discount helps a lot of vets because of their fixed incomes, and it made me a loyal customer, until I and many others just got shot down!
