Recently, when I pulled into the Home Depot parking lot, I was pleasantly surprised to see this sign - Veterans Parking Only - conveniently located near the front entrance of their business.

Thank you, Home Deport, for honoring American veterans in this way.

As a veteran, I too am thankful for the veteran's parking spot the Home Depot in Hixson provides.  I shop there frequently and I applaud their business. 

But I do most of my home repair/remodeling spending at Lowe's where veterans like me receive a 10 percent discount on everything every single day--in addition to ample veteran's parking.  To those veterans who aren't familiar with the benefit, I think you need to check it out.  It's saved me a bundle. 

Thank you, Lowe's, for the extra savings. and thank you, Home Depot, for the parking spot.
