Home Despot

Remember Ping Golf and their no discounts for military? Apparently, now Home Depot is up to similar tricks.

Historically, Home Depot has had an unadvertised discount for holders of military ID (active and veterans) of ten percent. The discount was at the discretion of individual store managers, and you had to know about it, and ask for it. It's been a nice policy, especially as we're renovating our house. No longer. The store we frequent has a new manager, who is following new guidance from headquarters, apparently: no more discounts for military, even if the manager wants it. (Our store manager doesn't, and is, in fact, trying to not honor the price we were quoted for some of the items on backorder).

Anyone out there have similar experience or more insight?
