Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Whaam! Varoom! R-rrring-g! The canvases of painter Roy Lichtenstein look as if they're lifted from the pages of comic books. Comics were a big inspiration for this pop artist, who was rich and famous when died in 1997 at age 73. But at a major Lichtenstein retrospective at Washington's National Gallery of Art, you can see that the artist found inspiration beyond comic books; he also paid his respects to the masters — Picasso, Monet and more.

Posts tagged: Roy Murry
Olympia reporter Jim Camden has a story in today's paper (which is also getting a lot of comments online) about the arrest of Roy Murry in Las Vegas for carrying a concealed weapon this week. Murry is one of the three men the Spokane County Commissioners are considering to replace former Spokane Valley senator Bob McCaslin, who recently retired from the state legislature after 30 years due to health reasons.
According to Jim's story, Murry is disputing the police report and said he won't withdraw his name from consideration for the senate seat. The police report states that Murry was carrying a semi-automatic handgun, two knives, two ammunition clips and loose rounds.
The Commissioners are currently conducting background checks on all three candidates, including state Rep. Matt Shea and GOP legislative district leader Jeff Baxter.
Spokane County Commissioners said yesterday that they will do background checks and have requested more information on the three men up for consideration to fill Bob McCaslin's vacant senate seat. He resigned Jan. 5 for health reasons.
The 4th legislative district precinct committee officers met over the weekend and voted to forward three names to the commissioners: Rep. Matt Shea and district leaders Jeff Baxter and Roy Murry.
Read John Craig's story for more information on the three men and the appointment process.

Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
Excerpts from radio interview: http://c.espnradio.com/s:5L8r1/audio...ation_id%3D632
On the new rule penalizing ball carriers for using the crown of their helmets to initiate contact with defenders in the open field:
They implement new rules every single year. I like the game the way it was. I understand theyre trying to make a statement, but this is one of those things where theyre trying to put their stamp on this league. Like I said, I liked the way it was, but you cant really argue with the people that want to change the rules.
On the challenge of having to change running styles so suddenly:
That play doesnt come into play a lot with my running style, but you have guys like Adrian Peterson, guys that really are hard runners and try to create that contact. This is gonna affect them more than it will myself. But I find myself sometimes lowering my head and lowering my shoulders. Its just, youre not gonna think about the rule changes. Weve been running like this since we were kids. They want us to change that mentality in one offseason, its gonna be tough. I was never a fan of all the defensive rule changes also where you cant lead with your helmet or the facemask because guys have been tackling like this for years. I was never a fan of that, and Im definitely not a fan of this.
On how long he thinks itll take for running backs to adapt to this rule:
I would have to think a couple years. Because like I said, running styles, especially as a running back, its more instinctive than it is strategic. And weve been doing it for so long that you have to train your body to run a certain way. So after a while it just becomes second-nature. So a lot of these guys are gonna have to snap out of their second-nature reactions and think before they run into guys. Im not a fan of this.
On his belief that stubbornly refusing to change your running style would be selfish:
I think if you say, Im gonna do what I gotta do, I think youre being selfish and I think youre gonna hurt your team like that, because you could have a 20-yard run and you get a 15-yard penalty because you led with the crown of your head and that brings your team back. And I think thats how my coaching staff and my organizations gonna approach it. Were professionals and these are the rules and the guidelines we have to play under. We all signed up for this thing together and they implement new rules and rule changes all the time. This is the way we have to do it. Its just part of the game. Rule changes are part of the game. So Im not one to take a stance on anything if its gonna hurt my team. So if its all for the betterment of my team Im gonna do it, but if you ask me my personal opinion about it, I think its weak.
On if hed be willing to sign a waiver now saying he wouldnt sue the league in regard to his health in retirement:
Personally, absolutely, because I knew what I was getting into when I first had the dream of playing in the NFL. I knew what I was getting into. The games a violent sport. Anything can happen. People get paralyzed; people get hurt broken legs, broken everything. Its just part of the game, and I knew what I was getting into. So to me, its kind of like blaming the NFL for your injuries, and I dont blame the NFL because it was my decision to partake in this game. So I would never sue. I dont have ill feelings toward those that have sued or whatever. Thats their business. Its just the way I see it. I just wouldnt.
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
Didn't think it would affect Foster, either.
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
Something tells me Arian isnt a fan of these new changes
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
Can't wait until some RB (saaay Frank Gore or Ray Rice) lowers his shoulder to get a crucial first down or score the go-ahead TD in a tough, hardfought playoff game only to have Roger's zebras toss the hanky and march them back 15 yards and change the course of that game.
Just watch the torches and pitchforks come out.
And what if the lead FB lowers his head to make a key block? Will that be called and perhaps bring back a key scoring play??
This new rule is nuts. One more step to making this a complete and total passing league.
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
I love Arian Foster. Things like this just cement that feeling.
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
This really sucks. These idiots are destroying the game of football.
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
What about goal line offense? That's hard nosed running....guess it's gone now?
Also, what about QB sneaks? They mostly lower their head and drive forward.

Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
Re: Arian Foster on new "crown" rule for RBs
I have mixed feelings on this issue... :thinking:
If Earl Campbell had this rule implemented whenever he was in his prime, I kinda wonder how long Earl's career would've lasted. I once saw, in a candid interview (during a time when Earl was mostly limited to a wheelchair) when asked (paraphrased):
Q: What would you have done differently in your career?
A: Stepped out of bounds more often.

Estes Terrible for Home Depot Delivery
Posted by
MARYLAND -- Ordered Vinyl flooring from Home Depot online. Estes called to confirm date and time that it was going to be delivered. Estes made it perfectly clear that if no one was home to take the order, we would be charged to reschedule delivery. They never came in the time frame that they stated. I was home ALL DAY. I called Estes a 1/2 hour before the end of the time frame to see what the problem was and the person who answered the phone was laughing as she answered and said that all the dispatchers were gone for the day and she could not tell me anything about my order as to whether the driver was on his way or not. This was on a Friday. The following Monday my husband called Estes and the person who answered said that the driver had attempted delivery on Friday - this was a lie. Estes did not attempt to make a delivery, they never showed up and then they lied about it.
They rescheduled the delivery for the following Wednesday. The driver was totally unprofessional ... I asked him to please put the vinyl in the garage because it was raining, he refused to do this because he said it was too heavy. He was rude and told me that I was lucky to have him place it where he did, which was just a few feet from the back of the truck. Why are they delivering things that cannot be delivered properly? I hesitate to EVER order anything from Home Depot again if they continue to Estes as a delivery company. Also when my husband called to find out why Estes did not deliver on the first date, they could not find our order - very frustrating. Estes had no clue that there was merchandise that had not been delivered on the previous Friday.

Estes is a trucking company, so delivering off the back of the truck is precisely what I would expect - that is what they do. I would not call that unprofessional. Also, it is always in my experience difficult to track movements and deliveries with trucking companies.
Shayen on 01/21/2014:
Totally unacceptable service and delivery. Home Depot needs to contract with someone else than this "trucking" company!

Customer Dis-Service - Delivery
Posted by
ATLANTA, GEORGIA -- I will never purchase another thing from Home Depot. The first item we purchased was a John Deer Lawn Mower. It was delivered missing critical parts. Home Depot is happy to act as a middle man. They are happy to take your money but they do not stand behind what they sell. If something goes wrong you have to call the manufacturer directly, even if you get an extended warranty. Now the wheel housing is cracked and Home Depot has done nothing to help us. Two days ago we bought a refrigerator that cost $1000.00. We heard nothing from Home Depot regarding delivery of the appliance in spite of the immediate removal of funds through our bank account.
My husband had to call to get a delivery date. In spite of all the information he entered into the existing account, they didn't even have his phone number. I waited all day long for their promise of a call 30 minutes prior to delivery which never came. There was someone at the house the entire day. We have a dog that was kept downstairs out of the way of the front door and out of the path of delivery. My dog barks if someone next door starts their car. The dog never barked. No one called. No one attempted to even come to the door. We would not even have had time to empty out the old refrigerator as a courtesy to them. They said they came by at 3:45 pm. Well, they never called. They didn't even have the correct number in spite of it being provided to them online and over the phone personally to the representatives at the 1-800-455-3869 repeatedly. They never came by...never knocked on the door...someone was here the entire day.
They tell you via the aforementioned number (customer disservice) that you have no control or say so as to when they will deliver the appliance. THEY TELL YOU WHEN THEY CAN DELIVER IT AND EXPECT YOU TO PUT YOUR LIFE ON HOLD FOR IT! Particularly unhelpful and downright rude were Michelle (Employee #7582) and her supervisor, Viviane (Employee #1468) who don't listen, make you repeat everything twice, treat you as though you are the one who is wrong and stupid in having to do so, and then telling you there is absolutely NOTHING they can do to help you...that YOU have to call back "tomorrow" because even though they wasted an entire day and all my time up to 6:45 pm (the delivery period was supposed to be 2:45 pm to 6:45 pm and they were to call 30 minutes prior), it was 7:01 pm when I called and the "HD Department is closed for the day."
Is anybody there actually accountable??? Does anybody have the power to do anything for the customer??? No!!! I am cancelling the purchase tomorrow because I'm told I have to wait an additional seven days for what doesn't even constitute an ATTEMPT to deliver anything.

An extended warranty in most cases is for after the manufacturer's warranty expires. I am not surprised as to what you reported about the JD tractor. Incidentally, that green stuff they sell at HD with the JD name on it is not the same quality JD is known for, as you found.
As for appliance delivery and service, for my money an independent appliance dealer is still the way to go. Good luck.
nikalseyn on 11/24/2013:
Regarding the John Deere. You should never buy a JD from a big box store like Home Depot, Lowe's, etc. Best to find your local JD dealer and buy direct from him. It will be delivered in good shape and any problems with it will be handled correctly by them. I know you can save a few dollars(probably)by buying from a big box store, but as in your case, when/if you have a problem, you have a real problem. If you had purchased it from a local dealer, he would take care of what he sells. Good luck.

Larger Tool Rental Breakdown and Lack of Repair
Posted by
MADISON, TENNESSEE -- Needed a large trench digger for a few hours. My elderly parents needed to have their water lines replaced from the meter to their house. They had a plumber at their house ready to do the work. Since I have the vehicle w/ a tow hitch I had to deliver the machine. I dropped off the machine and went to run some errands. I get a call within 30 minutes stating that the chain/teeth on the digger wasn't spinning once engaged.
I immediately went to Home Depot to discuss with manager to see what options we had instead of putting it back on the trailer, securing it, and bringing it back. I am then told that Home Depot does not own their equipment, it is contracted out. They called the gentleman who owns or operates the business that services the equipment. I get him to show up to the house to service the equipment over 2 hrs later, and after an hr of making adjustments we are told the machine doesn't work properly and needs to be returned.
I could not be available to pick-up/ return the machinery the next day and I'm the only one that can deliver the equipment. The serviceman says he would meet my parents at a different Home Depot early the following morning and deliver and return the unit when finished since he felt bad the machine didn't work. After an extremely aggravating and non-productive day, I return the machine to Home Depot, there was no charge (as should be) and Home Depot only said "sorry". They never offered a discount on a rental of a different unit.
The following morning my parents woke early and go to a Home Depot that is farther away to meet the serviceman for Home Depot's equipment where he said he would meet them and deliver and return the machine. After waiting over an hour and many phone calls, the serviceman never showed, called, nor answered his phone. My parents are left without water for the 3rd day. I have owned a few business', and I know for a fact, if I had people representing me in this manner and poor customer service on both ends of Home Depot and their servicemen, I would not expect to be in business very long.
This was just an EXTREMELY horrible experience. Home Depot's part and whoever owns the equipment. They should test each unit when returned for proper function before letting it leave the lot. This was on a trailer, definitely not a "throw in the back seat type of rental". I will not be renting anything from them again. Also, there was a lot more to this, but it is somewhat abridged. Hope this helps.

Deplorable Customer Service At New Rochelle Home Depot
Posted on
NEW ROCHELLE, NEW YORK -- Dear sir or Madam, please fix the extremely poor customer service at your New Rochelle NY store. I have consistently encountered DMV like service in this store for several years now (And I was going there often). Never ever have I seen such extremely bad bad attitudes and unwillingness to help in any store. I seems as if it's a store policy help customers as little as possible. Simply do a Google search for poor service at New Rochelle Home depot. And you will find story after story of people complaining about the really bad customer service coming out of this 1 Home Depot Store. Based on my search this store clearly has a top national ranking for the worst customer service. I have ever read some stories about management taking steps to address these customer service issues going back to 2009 (so obviously you know there is a serious problem with this store, and what ever you tried to do did not work).
Example: About a month ago I ask a clerk for help in the lumber dept. He starts to answer me and in mid sentence he gets a text message on his personal. The clueless clerk proceeds to have me stand right in front of him while he takes 4 minutes to send a volley of text message. No excuse me, no nothing. This experience got way worse bust too much to write about here.
Example: Today I wanted to buy some refurbished/reconditioned equipment that they had lined up in front of the store. However all of the equipment was strung together with a wire lock. I go inside and ask if I can purchase the equipment. It take literally 30 min for them to locate someone with the key to unlock the stuff. When we got to do the unlock, the clerk and I also pickup an escort from the store manager. She proceeds to tell me in a negative tone "you know there are parts missing write", "Oh.... Can you tell me what parts are missing". She does not know and couldn't care less. Do you know if the stuff works then. "No... that's why were selling them". me: "Well they do say reconditioned on them". her: "That means there used". I proceed to explain to her the definition of re-conditioned.This banter continued for about five minutes. Finally I just said never mind this is too complicated and I walked away. Here tone in this whole thing was as if she was annoyed, and bothered by my interest in the equipment (this was the manager). If its OK for her to act this way, what do you think is permissible underneath her.
This is clearly a management issues as it is store wide. The nearest Lowe's is a good 45min ride from this store. I'm a new Loyal LOWE'S customer.

Credit Card Issue and Change of Address and Not Receiving Billing
Posted by
SPRINGFIELD, MISSOURI -- My wife and I went into a Home D. store to purchase a ceiling fan. When we went to check out we found our credit card with Home D. wouldn`t go through. When calling from the store the credit dept. we found we had a unpaid balance of $60-$70 from a April purchase. I wasn`t aware of that because I didn`t receive a billing. We had a change of address that I believed I put on a statement when I mailed back to Home D. in March. I don`t use my Home D. charge very often but have had the credit card forever. My past pay report has been outstanding over the last 10-15 years with Home D. The lady advised me I owe not only the $60 I owe late charges$25 the first month,$35,second month,$40 the next month and so on. I owe more in late charges than my balance on purchases. I also don`t understand why the P. O. didn`t forward this bill because once in a while I still get forwarded mail. The lady I talked to was not flexible at all, she wasn`t helpful either. She was all business but not really helpful. She wasn`t rude or anything just if I wanted the fan I needed to pay the store $95 on my account or something like that an amount. I was getting a little up set and embarrassed with the other customers looking at my wife and I as dead beets. I told her to look at my pay record over the past 10 years and I pay every month my balance but she advised she couldn`t go back over 6 months. So after going over and over with this credit person and making no progress I told her to send me the bill at my correct address and I will pay for what I purchased but not $100 in late charges. I also advised her I will never set foot in another Home D. store and I will tell all my friends and everyone I talk to how hard it is to do business with Home D. Please also note I pay bills as I receive them like every other person does, I don`t keep track of purchases and automatically pay them if I don`t get a bill. Look at my credit score, look at my past pay record, then make a decision on cutting me off. I will pay the bill I owe, I will destroy my credit cards from Home D. and never shop there again. I will not pay all those outrages late fees however. When I receive the statement I`ll pay you what do.417-714-9162-Wayne Rambaud,615 N. Jerico St. Nixa, Mo.65714

Your situation sucks. Others have had the same problem. That said it is your responsibility to pay your bills. Not receiving the bill is not a a valid reason for being late with payment. You even state in your post that you are not sure if you placed your change of address with Home depot. You would have a better argument had you not changed your address but even then you are still responsible for debt incurred whether notified or not.

Home Depot Credit Card 5% Discount Matching Lowe's 5% Discount
Posted by
GARDEN GROVE, CALIFORNIA -- Less than a year ago an associate at a Depot had me apply for a commercial Home Depot credit card telling me that I would get 5% off my purchases. Upon being approved for the card, I was told that at the register I needed to ask for the 5% Lowe's match. When I went to use it in Orange county the stores needed to see my Lowe's card. I have a Lowe's commercial credit which I have and showed them and have ever since with not much trouble. One time at the Garden Grove store the cashier made me show the Lowe's card and my drivers license and checked the name on all three and told me that she had to make sure that I wasn't using someone else's Lowe's card in order to get the 5% discount. Today at the Garden Grove store I was told that the manager told them that the 5% discount did not apply to the Home Depot commercial credit card.
FYI: At Lowe's the 5% discount is applied automatically when the card is swiped and since it is a "Lowe's American Express" card, American Express gives 2 points for every dollar spent at Lowe's in which for every 2500 points that I cash in I get a $25 Lowe's gift card. This is an additional 2% in perks. CitiBank which issues my Home Depot Commercial card does not give any perks.

OK, this sounded familiar, but I also didn't understand what happened.
After some research here is what I came up with. I have a Lowes commercial card, and with it I get 5% back at Lowes.
The OP here sounded like they were trying to get the Lowes 5% discount at HD. Turns out that at least some HD stores give a 5% discount if you merely ask for "the Lowes 5% discount". Can't tell if this is a corportate policy or not. From what I found, you generally don't even have to show your Lowes card (which means you could conceivably lie about having one).
Now that I understand why HD is giving a Lowes discount, the problem here is that the manager says that can't be done if you are using a commercial HD CC for the purchase. I couldn't locate an HD page that describes the "Lowes discount", so I couldn't figure out if the manager was correct or not.
It sounds like this policy could vary from HD to HD, which isn't surprising - the 5% discount is pretty sweet. I am not surprised that one store asked for ID to verify you were not pulling a fast one. This policy is ripe for abuse.
Ron on 12/09/2013:
We were told when the associate at Home Depot offered the credit card it was 5% off all purchases. We have gotten it a few times but had to beg/question it every time. Cancelling our HD CC asap. We will go to Lowes who offers 10% for veterans and active military.

Turned into an indictment of Home Depot Customer service
Posted by
NORTH FORT MYERS, FLORIDA -- This review was inspired by a poorly designed and manufactured Thomasville floor that we purchased at Home Depot and had professionally installed by Home Depot in our dining room. It turned into an indictment of Home Depot Customer service. After months of contact and runaround I felt obligated to send the letter enclosed and post it so others can be better prepare when having a problem with Home Depot.
Home Depot: 14940 N Cleveland Ave, North Fort Myers, FL
Home Depot Representative,
Although it seems Home Depot has already made a decision on this matter I felt I had to respond to the way it was handled. At first it was made to look as though the representatives from Home Depot where looking to find a cause for the problem but in time we realized they were just handing the problem off from one person to the next. Most of what had been promised regardless how small such as "Pick up touch-up pen at store from counter person" where met by a glazed look from the person at the counter that was never told. They gave us phone numbers to call and called them manufacture representatives or Home Depot managers in charge of the flooring department, or buyers for the floor department, or the best joke of all "Home Depot customer service manager" but when we thought we heard it all they told us Home depot will be sending an insurance appraiser that we later found out specializes in auto insurance. Of course we had a problem with a Thomasville floor not something normally found in a car. He did not show up for the first appointment that he set up date and time for his convenience then arrived on his second try with a preconceived conclusion as to what the problem was. His brilliant conclusion was although we had pads on each leg of each chair and pads on each leg of the table they were not new enough and that made us reasonable for the damage.
I realize I'm not an insurance appraiser with specialties in auto insurance but even I was able to determine that the material in this Thomasville floor was too soft to support furniture of any kind and that made it totally useless as a dining room floor. We know other customers left negative feedback on this floor with at least one stating it marked so easily only air furniture should be used. I'm sorry I had to wright a negative review I much rather Home Depot would have worked with the suppliers and us to come to a fair conclusion for everyone but instead they decided it was best to waste not only my time but the time of the store employees.
Two things have come from this experience, first I will drive by a Home Depot to get to a Lowes in the future and second I will post a copy of this letter on any space that will have it.

You picked and purchased the flooring from Home Depot and you also used they to install the flooring, from this complaint I don't see where you are complaining about it being installed wrong or the installers being rude..The complaint is about the actual flooring which would be a complaint with the maker of the flooring..Home depot did there part fine...

Don't Buy Countertops From Home Depot!!!!!!
Posted by
OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLAHOMA -- We bought $4000 worth of marble countertops from Home Depot. They sent out someone from Home Depot to measure countertops, my wife explained to them exactly what she wanted including a template from the cabinet makers. They say the measurements are wrong from the cabinet maker and say we owe an additional $1600. We paid the difference and we got put off for a month for several reasons but not limited to "the marble is on back order", "the installer cracked the marble when they cut it" and back to "the marble is on back order".
Finally we call Home Depot and tell them we need it installed its costing us money, is an eyesore and is very inconvenient! They tell us they will try to expedite the process and they switched installers.
The installer shows up, and they have cut the island marble top wrong. The installers tells my wife "yes it was cut wrong". The installer calls his boss and they tell him to bring it back and they will recut it.
Two months later and after contacting the counter top people at Home Depot, the assistant manager, the store manager, the regional manager, the associate and manager of the installer and making a complaint to the corporate headquarters we are 3 months without counter tops and still counting!!
The installer tells my wife that she signed a piece of paper saying that the measurements were right. My wife didn't sign anything, she doesn't know how to measure counter tops and on top of that its not her responsibility that's what we are paying them for! They tell her they will bring her the original top back but that's it....
I will NEVER do business with Home Depot again! They are a very shady business that does not care about their customers, has extremely bad customer service and its employees and contractors have know idea what they are doing. The employees have told both my wife and I that they will "call us back" or "get to the bottom of it" but they don't and have no intentions to. PLEASE STAY AWAY!

Lack of Communication
Posted by
ONLINE ORDER, NEW JERSEY -- On June 13th I ordered my mother a new washing machine from Home Depot. It arrived on the 20th. My mother attempted to use it two days later, only to find that it would not agitate. She was unhappy with the product, and did not want another washer like this one. I called Home Depot and they said they would not be able to deliver a new washer for a week. I told them I wanted to cancel the order. The gentleman on the phone said that's fine we will have someone out either Tuesday or Wednesday to pick up the washer. Order was canceled, I was told I would have my money back in my account within 36 hours. Washer was picked up on Tuesday the 25th.
OK. Fast Forward two weeks. No refund has been placed in my account as of this moment. Add to this the frustration of spending literally hours on the phone trying to get this straightened out. Also, add the fact that Maytag has since attempted to deliver two more washers to my house (the first time I had to sign multiple papers and talk to an unfriendly dispatcher and this was after I was told by the very friendly Home Depot advisor that "everything was taken care of") I have spoken to at least five people all of whom have assured me the return number was generated and I would have my money within 36 hours of pick up.
Every time I called the nice operators said everything is taken care of. Well, called back Friday and was told I would have to speak to someone at the store (two weeks in I hear this). Once again, very nice lady tells me I will have my money back before Monday morning. Well, it isn't there yet. Called again was now told seven business days. I can understand mistakes but I can not understand or accept the utter confusion that seems to be going on inside this company. They have had the washer for two weeks. It was checked back into the store on the 28th, still I have no refund.

If they have the washer back and are still jerking you around, quickly file a charge back with your credit card company before the time limit expires to do so.

MCKINNEY, TEXAS -- DL's that show you as a veteran and DD-214's are not accepted at Home Depots, this is not isolated but true with all Home depots I have been into. this removes most vets from so called discounts. when you have a friend who does have one due to being active or medical / retired, there excuse is only on certain days. they are getting you there and not honoring this as they say. In fact a lady manager at Mckinney store is down right rude about it, hope see had fun putting up my carts that would have totaled around $1200, at least that was the cost after Lowes gave me a veterans discount whom has every time without question. many vets are already noticing this and have a boycott on the Home Depot for there actions toward vets, not just acceptance, but some of the attitudes in the process of trying to reason with them, as a vet, I and others would like to see them feel the pain of there action by putting a boycott on all Home Depots that refuse to honor what most of us have, DL and or DD-214's.
Unfortunately, rating I can not do, I think of Home Depot as awesome, but due to attitudes and responses toward me as a vet, I degrade them, they should look at Lowe's and see how they deal with everyone, they are much nicer folks and a whole lot more friendly.
Also note, you don't have to ask for help to load, no matter how busy, someone is always there to offer help, not at Home Depot, they are difficult to get to help and have attitudes about it when you do.

f you ever have difficulty getting your discount, or if you have questions about the discount programs, please call The Home Depot's Customer Service line at 1-800-HOME-DEPOT (1-800-466-3337), or leave a message on our Customer Service page.
Everyone at The Home Depot extends a very special thank you to all of the men and women who have served and who currently serve our country so bravely to protect our freedoms at home and abroad. The sacrifices of our active military, veterans and their families have made and make for us every day are astounding.
On Labor Day and Veterans Day especially, we wish only the best for all who have served across the country and abroad. We hope that these holidays find you safe and armed with the knowledge that we are all very proud of you in so many ways and that you have our full support in your endeavors.
At The Home Depot we are proud to honor and support their heroism everyday in a number of ways such as employment programs for all military and their families, discounts, supporting a system of military focused non-profits and more.
The Home Depot Veterans Discount Program*
The Home Depot offers a year-round, 10 percent discount, up to a $500 maximum, at our U.S. stores to all active duty military personnel, reservists, retired or disabled veterans and their immediate families. We offer this discount to thank them for their outstanding service to this nation and to help make their homes more comfortable and safe. Customers requesting the discount should present a valid military ID.
In addition, a 10 percent discount is also offered in recognition of Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day and Veterans Day at all U.S. Home Depot stores for all other military veterans.

My family and I have never had an issue getting a discount at HD. They do require a government issued ID.
trmn8r on 03/24/2013:
The HD clearly states what they expect you to present: "We do ask to see one of the following forms of identification to verify military status: Common Access Card (CAC), Veterans Identification Card (VIC – Must state "Service Connected" for the everyday discount) or Uniformed Services ID Card (Tan, Red or Blue)."
My memory is a DD-214 is the departure form, so neither that or a DL seems to meet the criteria.
masterclay on 03/26/2013:
A1, its a fact, most of us who served only got a DD-214, this with a DL will get a discount at Lowes every time, they do have respect for the veterans. My opinion is that Home Depot is exactly what is said of them, rude and do not accept DD-214 w/DL's, only military ID, only ones that have them are active, retired, or medical. otherwise it is a DD214 only. if you discount veterans then DD214's are what we have for our proof, along w/DL to prove it is us should be enough, and it is almost anywhere except for Home Depot. Sorry, but Lowes will have my business from now on. if you use them and they take yours, you are regular and friends w/someone. DD214's are the officail discharge papers and with an DL should be accepted.
Ardent on 06/13/2013:
Here in Tulsa, I'm seeing similar results. Lowe's gives the 10% discount every day to Vets and Active/Reserve/Retired with no problem. Oklahoma D.L. will show Veteran if you bring your DD214 when renewing or can have it added for $10 anytime at the tag agent. Home Depot varies a lot from store to store. Some treat the same as Lowe's, other are strictly Active/Res/Retired only except for specific holiday weekends. On a related customer service issue, both give a 5% discount when using their credit card. However Lowe's POS system deducts it automatically when you swipe the card, while at HD you have to specifically ask for it, then they scan a barcode near the register. This really shows a difference in attitude to me.
Louis Fisher on 06/13/2013:
I have live in the Portland Or area and have not had a problem getting the discount with my stamped Veteran DL at the Beaverton Home Depot stores, the only one that gives me a hard time is the Hillsboro store. They will only accept the "Common Access Card (CAC), Veterans Identification Card (VIC – Must state "Service Connected" for the everyday discount) or Uniformed Services ID Card (Tan, Red or Blue)."
I like that Home Depot store but will not purchase from them anymore. I am a veteran and served my country the same as the military personnel who have the CAC, VIC and Uniformed Services cards. We are no less Veterans than they are and I don't understand why HD won't recognize us as Veterans. Why can they pick and choose which Veterans they will honor the discount to??
JR on 07/21/2013:
The Gainsville TX Home Depot is very inconsistent and one day as a Vietnam Vereran I get a discount and the Farm and Ranch tax exclusion. The next day I am told that I have to pick one of the two. Now it is "I'm sorry they are cracking down on Veterans discounts so I can't give you one". It is hard to get help loading in Gainsville too. It has never been a well run store. Very sad.
SH on 07/24/2013:
Here in Georgetown, Tx is no different, rude and humiliating. My 8 years active with honorable discharge must count for something. HD may think their policy will profit them
Jim on 08/04/2013:
I served 22 years and got paid to do it. They don't owe us anything for doing our job. Everybody wants something fo nothing these days. I think its unethical to get discounts for having been a government employee.Firemen and policemen don't get discounts and they risk their lives every day too.
Sarah on 08/15/2013:
Home Depot honored my AmVets card and DL last week for Round Up and a couple bags of cement NO PROBLEM. Lowe's deny my AmVets card and DL - so I left about $500 in the cart at the self serve as no full cashier service was available at this Lowe's in North Attleboro, MA.
I had just spoken to two guys from roofing about 55 bundles of shingles and delivery. I had planned to check out with paint and wiring items only with my discount and put in a special order of $2,050.00 worth of roofing shingles without any intention of asking for a discount on these as they were already discounted for all.
RESULT.....Possible sale ($ 2,550.00- $50 discount= $2,500.00) Actual sale NO SALE $0 and dishonored two veterans. The real irony in all this is -the material I was going to get was for a house I own in Lakeville that I rent at a discount for another veteran and his family as they lost their house last year. No more Lowe's for this vet!

J W on 08/22/2013:
The Home Depot discount is disingenuous at best, misleading at worst. It was formerly advertised as a veterans discount, no longer. DEFINITION: under Federal Law a VETERAN is any person, who served honorably on active duty in the armed forces of the United States. They only offer veteran discounts on said holidays, memorial day, labor day, 4th of July, etc. The everyday discount is for active duty, retired, family etc, as listed above. Most people think of veterans as combat veterans, many people retire after 20 years, never see combat, and qualify. Some get injured, medically discharged before completing basic training, and qualify. Many serve 3 - 6 years, spend half in combat, do not qualify. I'm not looking for any special treatment, it was my choice. My question is this, do they do it to actually honor the service members? If so, apply the discount to all veterans or solely the current active duty members. Is it to honor the service members or to draw more business in by misleading the public that they support veterans everyday. It's in the details.
Ben A on 09/09/2013:
In the Southfield/Farmington Hills, MI area, the Home Depot I go to gives a 10% discount to all vets with an ID (incl the pink ID) with no question. The Lowes used to do so, but now only offer discounts to active duty, retired, and disabled. I now go to Home Depot for purchases over $5-$10. Lowes has missed out on thousands of $ of my money since they tightened their requiremens
Craig on 11/10/2013:
JW is dead- this is an email I sent Home Depot today:
I was in your St. Lucie West store on Friday and had a pretty interesting interaction with one of your employees. I had approached to pay for a $5 product and inquired about the Veterans Day weekend and if it starts on that day or just for Monday. She stated that no one tells her anything, but asked for my ID.
When she looked at it she noticed that it was expired. I explained it's because I'm a veteran and a but too old to be in the service any longer. She went through the HD policy, and when I explained that Lowe's goes the discount year round, she stated that "Lowe's is doing it wrong." I found that funny because I stated that may be Home Depot os doing it wrong - she then asked me if a store like Wal-Mart gives it year round, I stated no, but plenty do, and there is a substantial list of these establishments online.
She explained that unless I was "...retired or had a service connected injury that..." She stopped there knowing she was about to stick her foot in her mouth. I said, "So if I sat behind a desk for 20-years and just pushed paper for the mission, I was more of a legitimate vet that if I did six months in combat and managed not to get a scratch, but then received an honorable discharge?"
She gave me the $0.50 discount. I am a bit shocked that this is what your company is instilling into your employees. That there are two different types of veterans - survive behind a desk or get a purple heart and you'll get a discount, do two-years and get sent into combat zones for a total of 6-12 months without getting injured, and we'll treat you differently. "
I'll continue to give Lowe's my business.
Craig on 11/10/2013:
Ben - You have it backwards - you need to look at Lowe's policy and then Home Depot. Home Depot clearly states that unless you are Active, retired, or have a VA Card with "Service Connected" on it, you are only entitled to discounts on Memorial Day, Independence ay, and Veterans Day. For this reason I have spent tens of thousands at Lowe's, most recently having them install a brand new front door and shuttered my entire house. Home Depot offered me Zilch!
Harry on 11/10/2013:
Jim, you're a better man than most. A company is will to offer a discount in order to get a significant demographic into their store and pay for goods - that's called CAPITALISM! You know, the economy that is part of the Republic which we chose to defend - and they want to compete for that customer because that customer lives in a FREE country that we chose to defend, then by all means why not discuss it since we can due to the US CONSTITUTION that we chose to defend?
DavenOhio on 12/04/2013:
Just had the same problem at Home Depot, sent and email to HD.
Here is my email, their reply and then my reply.
I am writing to let you know how dissatisfied I am after visiting your Winford Ave store in Hamilton Ohio.
This dissatisfaction is because of my check out experience, the cashier was Joyce JEC0977.
Currently I am remodeling my kitchen and bath on our main home and in the process of restoring a historic home in the German Village Historic District in Hamilton.
In all the visits I have made to HD or Loweâs I have received my veterans discount for my service. Today I was told that my service was not good enough, the discount is only for certain veterans of whom I am not one of them.
Not sure why my service is less important than another veteran but if you want to discriminate against a certain class of veterans that is your companies choice. However, that does not mean I have to accept it or continue to do business with HD.
Today, I get HDâs policy stated to me and the fact that I am just a regular veteran is not good enough.
I have to be disabled, retired or former POW. So because I did not get shot or step on a land mine, and decided that 20 or 30 years in the military is not a career choice for me I cannot get a discount.
There are many veterans that survived combat missions without injury or capture, retirees that never saw a day of combat. Many veterans just wanted to serve their nation, they had no choice on deployment or the jobs they did. Instead, many served in support roles for combat missions. They loaded bombs and missiles onto planes, handled communications in combat information centers, researched intelligence for the latest information for troops, ships and planes in harmâs way.
So there service does not mean anything to Home Depot?
When I questioned the cashier why I could no longer get the discount I have always gotten I get policy. I will admit I was upset, civil but upset.
I do not think that telling me âgo step on land mine if you want a discount, I do not make the policyâ was necessary. Yes I did say âso if I stepped on a mine I can get a discount but because I did not I cannot get a discountâ I have been going to your stores and enjoyed it, not because of the discount I get that at Loweâs. Your stores are closer to my homes, Menardsâs is closer but I passed it by for HD. Not anymore, if you are going to discriminate against veterans I want nothing to do with HD.
They are going to love this story at American Legion and the VFW. I hope everyone passes it on.

My reply
Thank you for quoting policy to me again. I heard that yesterday.
Although that is policy does not mean I have to agree with it, I do not.
It obvious Home Depot is missing the point altogether, you are trying to be politically correct by offering a discount to veterans. You limit access to the discount for the sake of profit and not because you really care.
Look at your policy, it gives discounts to civilians that have retired from a base, children of active duty service members along with the service member. (Please note that they are not veterans, yet) A veteran may have served four tours of duty in Iraq or Afghanistan surviving numerous fire fights, watching their buddies wounded or dying and they canât get a discount, but the gardener that worked 20 years at a base can. How is that honoring a veteran?
This policy is designed to give discounts to a very limited number of people. This policy is only to create the perception to the general public that your honor veterans, knowing that the general population will only see the 10% discount to veterans and say Wow! Look what Home Depot does for veterans and not realizing the majority of veterans will never get it.
I was speaking to a veteran at Great Clips on veterans day, (free haircuts to any veteran, no ID required) he was drafted into WW II, landed on D-Day and fought his way into Germany. After the war he stayed in the reserves, he was called back to active duty to fight in the Korean war, but he is not eligible under your policy. He is more deserving than me, any retired civilians or the dependents of any active duty soldier, sailor or airman.
This discriminatory policy appears to be well known, there are web sites about it and even a face book page about it, veterans are catching on to what Home Depot is doing. You are losing my business, I know you couldn't care less but this policy will come back to haunt Home Depot.
I think the most disturbing thing is your failure to even mention the disparaging remark made by your cashier about "stepping on land mine if I wanted a discount". If she did not want to deal with me or my questions she should have called a manager. Would she give the 10% discount to a disabled veteran that has lost a leg to a mine or IED and then ask âwhat do you need an extension ladder for?â.
When I was in the service we worked as a team to accomplish a mission. Your job did not matter nor did your location, every job was a part of a bigger picture leading to one thing, accomplishing the mission.
Home Depot has belittled me and every single member of the armed forces that is serving, has served or will serve in the future. Home Depot has created a policy that discriminates against the vast majority of armed forces veterans regardless of their branch of service, their vocation or their place of deployment.
Shame on Home Depot.

I agree! :thumbs:
Just think if they re-alignes the carpark entrance for DHS to come off Victory Way how much more land they'd have to play with near LMA and The Back Lot Tour. :yes:
Attachment 5234
I like the extra space they kept around all of the parks as it allows for some major expansion... We can see a Star Wars area having plenty of room for whatever they may want...
Good lord, people.
Let's wait for the ink on the contract to dry. Then hope they finally fix Epcot and the Yeti, at least, before all of the Star Wars crazy talk.
They can't create a viable land out of a movie franchise most people don't like (Avatar), but they can out of one that they do like?
What's the difference?
That doesn't address my point, though.
They're both movie franchises. Either you can build an entire land out of one, or you can't.
In regards to Star Wars you certainly can... The revenue generated I've over the years is proof... The franchise has huge following... Avatar cannot boast even a quarter of the fan base that Star Wars has... All I'm saying is there is room for expansion... And let's not act as though this expansion hasn't been rumored before...
So, the revenue generated by a movie determines whether or not you can base an entire land upon it?
Sorry, Joe. That simply doesn't make any sense.
Using that logic, Titanic would make for a great land.
Well considering Star Wars has had 6 movies, comics, tv shows, and more I think you have a lot more to base a land on over Avatar which has only one film so far. Plus, Star Wars has so many fans and tons of story lines and attraction ideas compared to Avatar. Honestly, nothing has happened with that movie since the film.
It's not that they can't create a viable land from Avatar. Star Wars is a franchise with a viable long term life span. It is loved by many people and has a huge universe behind it. Avatar is one film with rumored sequels and has yet to be deemed a viable long term franchise.
If anyone would make Avatar Land work, Disney will.
Carsland says you can. It wasn't the most popular Pixar movie, AND it had an awful sequel.
And the bottom line here is WDW needs a whole lot of TLC in other areas long before they even start to blue sky for a Star Wars expansion in the parks.
So far Avatar isn't a franchise. It's a single movie with rumored sequels. Star Wars is a worldwide hit that has tons of source material to build from that appeals to grown ups and kids alike. I'm not certain what Avatar's draw with kids is like.
Cars is completely different. It may not have been the best movie but it has a huge following with kids due to the Disney merchandising monster.
And you are right, there are many other areas of WDW that needs taken care of before any more expansion is done. But that's what's great about the internet, we can speculate and debate all we want.

December 21, 2014
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Early voting is getting underway for Tennessee's primary election that features tea party-style challenges to Lamar Alexander's bid for the Republican nomination to a third term in the U.S. Senate.
Alexander is looking to avoid an upset from state Rep. Joe Carr of Murfreesboro or Memphis physician and radio station owner George Flinn. Carr has sought to consolidate tea party support, while Flinn has given $1.8 million of his own money into his final push.
The GOP primary in the 4th Congressional District pits embattled U.S. Rep. Scott DesJarlais against state Sen. Jim Tracy, who has outraised the incumbent. DesJarlais, a Jasper physician before his election, is seeking a third term.

Since announcing his candidacy last month to oppose state Sen. Tony Avella (D-Bayside), John Liu has wasted no time in getting endorsements.
Liu, a former Flushing councilman and city comptroller, was selected by the Queens Democratic Party to oppose Avella in the fall primary because the incumbent angered party officials for joining the Independent Democratic Caucus with Senate Republicans to form a majority.
Liu received the support of the Daily Kos, a progressive website. Other endorsements are from unions: UFCW Local 1,500; NYC Coalition of Operating Engineers, Locals 14 and 15; Stationary Engineers, Locals 30 and 94; School Custodians Local 891; NYC building inspectors Local 211; and NY Hotel and Motel Trades.
Avella's camp issued the following statement: "There is no doubt that Sen.Avella will have strong resources and an army of talent at his disposal in order to help spread his progressive agenda. While the most influential unions have yet to offer their choice, Sen. Avella is focused on completing a successful legislative session."

Zante's latecomer
Sitting pretty on Zante's northeast coast, Tsilivi is a relative latecomer to the tourist boom on Zante – but it's making up for lost time. Not only does it have an outstanding sandy beach, but its winding streets cram in a waterpark, a mini golf and tonnes of tavernas. And away from the bar-and-restaurant-lined strip, it's still got the feel of an old fishing village, with old men dozing in the afternoon sun.
A jewel of a beach
Tsilivi Beach is a 2-kilometre ribbon of white sand with a Blue Flag for cleanliness. Bars, restaurants and watersports centres jostle for position on the sand. Half the beach is lined with sunloungers, the other half is strictly towel territory. And if it gets too busy, you can always head to the quieter beaches of Tragaki and Bouka, immediately west from here.
Action-packed resort
Tsilivi is popular with families, and for good reason. It recently added a brand new waterpark, the Splash Fun, just behind the Planos Bay Hotel. There's also Fantasy Mini Golf set in gecko-filled gardens. And if you're into 10-pin bowling, there are 4 lanes at Bowl 'M Over.
Close to Zante Town
Zante Town, the capital, is just a 20-minute taxi ride from Tsilivi. From boutique-lined avenues to a port filled with superyachts, it's a town that likes the high life. The most fashionable area is by the Venetian castle, where easygoing cafés and achingly cool bars sit side by side.

Dollar Hits One-Year High
By Omer Esiner of Travelex
The dollar built on its Monday gains to hit new one-year peaks against the euro and a basket of major currencies on Tuesday as a decline in risk appetite and worries about Europe's debt troubles bolstered the greenback.
The euro remained under pressure despite a weekend announcement that leaders from the European Union and the IMF had created a 110 billion euro ($145 billion) rescue package for debt-plagued Greece. Still, much uncertainty remains, with investors questioning whether the loans will be enough, whether Germany will sign off on the deal and whether the aid package will help prevent Greece's troubles from spreading to other highly indebted nations in the bloc like Portugal and Spain. Consequently, Europe's debt problems should help to limit the single currency's upside for the foreseeable future.
The pound fell on Tuesday on uncertainty ahead of Thursday's general election in the U.K. However, the pound's overnight descent was somewhat slowed by a British manufacturing report that showed the fastest pace of growth in 15 years in April.The Canadian dollar fell, hurt by the overall decline in investor sentiment and by weaker oil prices of less than $85 a barrel. Australia's currency tumbled despite a quarter-point rate hike by the Reserve Bank of Australia to 4.5%. The RBA's accompanying remarks suggested a slower pace of tightening in the months ahead. U.S. data for March on factory orders and pending home sales were due this morning at 10 a.m. EDT. EUR: The euro's downtrend continued overnight on investor worries about the financial health of some of the bloc's weaker economies. Despite a weekend agreement on a 110 billion euro ($145 billion) plan created by European finance officials along with the IMF to help Greece avoid tipping into bankruptcy, the single currency plunged to a new one-year low against its U.S. counterpart. Market participants now question how effective the deal will be in addressing Greece's debt troubles. To secure the emergency loans, Greece had to agree to fresh belt-tightening measures such as tax hikes and public-sector pay cuts over the next three years. Given strong public opposition, many doubt whether Athens will be successful enough to improve its fiscal position. Investors also fear that other eurozone countries with soaring debt loads such as Portugal and Spain could see their finances worsen. Europe's debt problems are a key headwind to the growth outlook in the bloc, a scenario that could push back the timetable for any ECB policy tightening over the longer term.

I have made this 6 times and finally got around to reviewing it.The family LOVES LOVES LOVE..."
"I love this recipe! I have made it sooo many times and it is a meal within itself!!!"
"We thought these were just awful! The smell from the boiling pot made us cough and wheeze and then the turkey legs were too spicy on the outside and way too dry on the inside. I followed the recipe just as told so I know it's not me.I'm sorry but I would not make these again"

"This tenderloin was very, very tender. You really could cut it with a spoon. The taste was wonderful, too.I only marinated it for 6 hours but that proved to be plenty of time.

Authorities are investigating what may have triggered Thursday night's deadly shooting incident at the Pentagon, including the gunman's past ties.
The shooter, John Patrick Bedell, 36, of Hollister, Calif., died after being shot by police. This was not his first run-in with law enforcement.
Investigators may never know for sure why he attacked, but Internet postings suggest he was angry at the government and believed the 9/11even attacks were staged.
At a news conference Friday morning, Pentagon Police Chief Richard Keevill said he does not know why Bedell opened fire, though it does not appear to be terrorism.
"There is no indication at this point that there are any domestic or international terrorism nexus to this at all. At this time, it appears to be a single individual who had issues,"Keevill said.
Bedell, dressed in a suit, walked up to a guard station alone and opened fire, wounding two Pentagon police officers. Bedell died from his wounds after officers shot back at him.
Authorities are looking at anti-government postings by a Bedell on the Internet.
One such posting reads: "The moral values of individuals and communities are increasingly attacked by a political system where deceit is routine and accepted, and the only standard is power."
A 2007 Wikipedia posting by Bedell expresses paranoia about the 9/11 attacks and the Kennedy assassination.
He wrote that he wanted to establish "the truth of events such as the September 11 demolitions and institutions such as the coup regime of 1963 that maintains itself in power through the global drug trade, financial corruption, and murder, among other crimes."
"Well, it seems like there's a real pattern here not only of Islamic terrorists, but anti-government zealots targeting U.S. military installations," CBN News Terrorism analyst Erick Stakelbeck said. "Really, the U.S. military, to people like this, represents everything that's wrong with the world, everything they hate, and everything they want to bring down."
As word spread throughout the Washington, D.C., frantic friends and relatives started tracking down loved ones who work at the Pentagon.
"The phone started ringing and the blackberry started going off with people calling the two of us trying to find out if we were alive," Pentagon worker Patty Benner said. "Because after September 11th, there is a slight jitteriness amongst my family and friends,"
In recent weeks, Bedell's parents filed a missing persons report when their son disappeared for awhile in January. They had told authorities he was upset and had purchased a gun.
Bedell had also been institutionalized for mental health issues at least four times in the past. But when this latest lone gunman attacked, his would-be victims were ready.
"The Fort Hood incident put us on notice that it could happen even at a military reservation. We took the appropriate actions, we trained our officers and it worked," Keevill said.
Both of the police officers shot outside the Pentagon have been released from the hospital. One of them gives God the credit for protecting him.
"I just thank the Lord that he shielded me when all of this took place," officer Jeffery Amos said.
