Moderator broncovet Posted May 9, 2009 Moderator Share Posted May 9, 2009 Carlie.. Thanks, and a GREAT IDEA! Lets publish a list of Veteran-friendly businesses! Golden Corral, I beleive, offers Veterans a free meal on Veterans day, and should be on the Veteran Friendly list, along with Walgreens Lowes Home Depot SOME Waffle HOUSE Some Airlines offer lower fairs for military By shopping these businesses, we can pressure others to also help with our Veterans! I am going to start asking for a Veteran discount..we deserve it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Philip Rogers Posted May 9, 2009 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) Just wanted to mention saving money on installed carpet. The carpet industry has screwed the general public for years. Generally, the buyer is sold the same amount of padding as carpet. Carpet generally comes in 12' and 15' widths and the buyer is sold the same amount of padding as carpet, which is not what's needed. Padding comes in much smaller widths and can be pieced under the carpet. So 40 sq yds of carpet may only need 30 yds of padding. Think about it, a charge for 10 yds of unnecessary padding is cash in their pocket. They did this to me a couple of yrs ago and I caught them. After I confronted them, they tried to call the job " a bid" but in the end I won and we agreed on a $250 refund. Back in the late 60's I sold carpeting, so I knew their tricks but had forgotten. If you've purchased installed carpeting, w/padding, within the previous year you should be able to get an adjustment, in lieu of an state's atty general's investigation. pr Edited May 9, 2009 by Philip Rogers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted May 10, 2009 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 10, 2009 I grew up on hardwood floors and we went back to hardwood with a few scatter rugs and I love it. Veterans deserve real choice for their health care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder jbasser Posted May 10, 2009 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 10, 2009 I am a member of an organization called Veteran Advantage and I have used their travel service and other things. www.veteransadvantage.com ALso, Military.com has a page of Veteran or military discounts available. J A Veteran is a person who served this country. Treat them with respect. A Disabled Veteran is a person who served this country and bears the scars of that service regardless of when or where they served. Treat them with the upmost respect. I do. Rejection is not a sign of failure. Failure is not an option, Medical opinions and evidence wins claims. Trust in others is a virtue but you take the T out of Trust and you are left with Rust so be wise about who you are dealing with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
