Farm vlog #5 : Denied a veterans discount at Home Depot! Chicken coop almost done!

What happens here

The presenter departs in his 2000 Dodge Ram truck, heading to Lowe's to buy Paslode Quickload fuel. During the drive, he expresses his preference for Lowe's over Home Depot, citing a frustrating experience where Home Depot refused to honor his military veteran discount despite him providing multiple forms of valid veteran identification.

Goal: The presenter drives his truck to Lowe's to purchase nailer fuel and uses the opportunity to explain why he prefers Lowe's over Home Depot.

Tools and materials

  • Dodge Ram Truck
  • Paslode Quickload Fuel Cell

compressor and all that stuff. Can't do anything. We don't have our pass load fuel. So, we got to go get some pass load fuel at the store. So, I'm pretty sure all you guys are jealous of my Cumins now. Uh, my Dodge Ram here. I sure do like it. It's a 2000 model. I picked it up on a uh really good deal. Very well taken care of vehicle. So, we're headed to Lowe's uh to get this pass load quickload fuel. We don't go to Home Depot anymore. And I'll tell you why I don't go to Home Depot anymore. went to Home Depot and I ended up uh trying to get my military veteran discount. I I'm an Air Force veteran and I have veteran on my driver's license. I have a veterans ID card from the county, but I do not receive any veterans benefits from the VA. So, I currently don't receive any uh VA benefits, but I'm still a veteran. So, I had my DD214, which is my discharge papers, my veteran ID stamped on my driver's license, and my veteran card from our county that's issued from the county, and Home Depot still would not give me my 10% discount. I asked him at that time, I said, "Are you sure this is what you want to do? Are you sure that you want to deal with that? If you want that all veterans to know that Home Depot wouldn't give me my veterans discount, a veteran of the United States Air Force because I didn't have the required veterans ID. It's not fair. I'm no less a veteran. I don't want to tell you guys how disappointed I was in Home Depot. I was a big-time Home Depot customer for years and they must have changed their policy. I had the store manager come up and he still would not give me the discount. It was very upsetting. So, if anybody knows uh of any other way to get that veteran discount at Home Depot, please put it in the comments. Uh send me a message, whatever you want to do. Uh because it really really ticked me off that Home Depot would do that to a veteran. So,
