Lowe’s Cos. Inc. is expanding its support of the military by offering a 10 percent discount daily to all military personnel.
The program is available to active, reserve, retired or disabled personnel. Customers must have a valid, government-issued military identification card to be eligible.
The discount had been offered on Memorial Day, Fourth of July and Veterans Day weekends.
I have been getting that discount all the time as a dependent. It is Home Depot who gives it on certain occasions or if I threaten to go to Lowes and get the same product at 10% off. Lowes also beat the competitor's price by 10% and I think you get the 10% on top of it as well (cannot remember for sure when I did that). Also the military discount is not valid on sale items, only one discount.
Home Depot gives 10% off all of the time but you have to ask for it. Even if you're wearing BDUs they will not offer it unless you request it. This is what a cashier told me, and I'm a dependent.

This is self-contradictory because active, reserve, retired and disabled doesn't cover all military personnel (most, but not all). I'm prior service but I guess this little technicality means I don't get the discount, huh?

You need to show the ID. Prior does not mean you have the ID now.
They will discount but usually needs a manager override. It can hold up the line. I only use it if over say $40.00.
That is the hang up. You would think that with this policy they would make it easier. I use mine regardless every little helps.
BTW there are a lot of other places that offer military disounts, if asked of course, but only on specific days. Like Rack Room shoes, NYandCompany. I always asked when I patronise a store. The worse they can say is no..
