What do you need to show at Lowe’s to prove you are a veteran ?

My Dad is a veteran and he needs to buy a bunch of stuff and I’d like to tell him how to save 10%.

There is a number of ways you can help your dad save a few bucks. You can have him take his DD214 to Lowe’s and get into their system. However if he is not a retired veteran the best thing to do is take him down to the VA and get a veterans ID card and or bring him to DMV with the DD214 and they will put veterans status on his license. With that you can use it where ever they offer discounts to veterans including some restaurants. Such as T-Bones offers discounts to veterans every Tuesday. Just as an example.

DD214 Honorable discharge form will also work. While there is an online way to do that via the Lowe's website, I took a copy of my DD214 to the customer service desk. They quickly setup my access associated with my phone number. However I also got a "My Lowe's" card which then can be scanned to get the 10% and a thank you for your service. That card came with some stick on bar codes one of which is stuck to a credit card. When scanning items at check out that bar code also gets scanned. Bingo 10% off

Default Wife too

My wife gets the Lowe's discount too, because she is married to a Vet. I don't need to be there. Her ID (Driver's license) matches the info they have in their data base.

Default Monday Lowes purchase

We stopped at Lowes in Concord to pick up flowers at their garden center. Opened My Lowes app on my smart phone, cashier scanned the barcode, 10% discount applied, never asked me for an ID, and he thanked me for my service. That's the way it is supposed to be. It's also the way it has been for me, at the Rochester and the Gilford stores , always, never been asked for additional ID.
