Do it Yourself: October 2018

Re: [DIY] Re: Plastic smell coming from AC

Should not a burned put motor render your unit inoperative and be obvious but
i think you said unit was operating ok except for smell?

Is there more than two motors ? Compressor motor, fan motor??

is one of the motors straining? Can you feel if motor running hot/overheating?

I wonder if HVAC guy possibly a little short of Christmas cash? $600 for a motor
sounds outrageous even with labor...

Google AC motors... 68.98 to $120 -- I'd buy exact replacement if that the case
and put it in myself.

Respectfully,

RJC

Called my HVAC guy and he says it sounds like a
burned-out motor. :( Oh well, who needs $600 anyway!

New policy!!! Re: [DIY] Veterans discount at Lowes versus Home Depot

I have been getting this discount at various places for over 30 years
apparentley Lowes has changed its policy

National home improvement retailer Lowe's has expanded its everyday military discount program to include all honorably discharged veterans, as of May 2018. The chain also has expanded the 10 percent discount to Lowe's online shopping, which will include free parcel shipping. It will provide for faster checkout and add the ability to use the discount at self-checkout in stores, said Lowe's spokeswoman Karen Cobb. But the procedure for getting the discount has changed: Active-duty service members, retirees and veterans must must sign up online at www.lowes.com/mylowes/login?context=military for the Lowe's personal shopping card to qualify for the discount. This is not a credit card. If you do not want a card you have the option of using your phone number.

Spouses and dependent children up to age 18 can also get the discount, although the online signup process doesn't include an option for spouses or children.

I disagree with the new policy and stand by my demand to cease your non-service connected
use of the discount, however.

Respectfully,

RJC

I have an ID for the local VA hospital but my health
problems

are NOTT service related. For many years this was not a

problem and I always got a 10% discount at both my local

Home Depot in Pennsylvania which is about 1/4 mile from

our driveway and the one in Delaware where there is no sales
tax.

(my VA hospital is in Wilmington, DE so I tend to shop
there

on my way home from appointments.)

In the last few months both of the Home Depots I use have

stopped giving veterans discounts to veterans unless you
have

an ID that indicates you have a service connected
disability.

This has been their official policy for a couple of years

but it varied by store and by employee until recently.

In other words, I was sometimes I was able to get a discount

by just moving to a different cash register because it is up

to each Home Depot employee to look at your ID card and
verify

you are a veteran EVERY time you go to a cash register

to pay

But that policy has now apparently changed and become more
stringent

since I never get a discount anymore at Home Depot at either
of the stores

I use.

I just discovered recently that Lowes, on the other hand,

has a much better way to administer their veterans
discount.

You show them your VA hospital ID one time at customer
service

and they enter that information into their computer
system.

From then on, all you have to do is tell the cashier at the
checkout

counter what your phone number is and you should get the
discount.

They then look up the phone number to verify you are
registered

as a qualified veteran.

Needless to say I am now shopping more frequently at
Lowes,

especially for big dollar items, even though it is a farther
drive

from my home. I discovered all this by chance a month ago
when

we were shopping for a new washing machine. The Lowes

is in the same shopping center as the Comcast store so

after returning all of our Comcast equipment we decided to
stop at

Lowes and check out which model & mfg to buy.

Since the Lowes and Home Depot sale prices were the same

and they both have free delivery, we ended up buying the
clothes

washer at Lowes even though I can see the Home Depot

from our driveway.

My wife has a smartphone and it amazes me how easy it is now

to check prices for brand name products at local stores. She

checked the nearby prices while we were still in the
Lowes.

We saved approx $60 on that one purchase and Home Depot lost

that sale. I will still buy small stuff from Home Depot
because it is

convenient but from now on any large purchase we make, will
probably

be at Lowes.

Re: [DIY] Veterans discount at Lowes versus Home Depot

Lowes-

To whom it may concern:

I am 100% disabled veteran. I just found out a person named bill z. From Delaware county PA is cheating Lowes with false non-service connected VA card. He is not service connected and is committing fraud. He is on the site doit_yourself@yahoo.com and bragging about his discounts

Subject: [DIY] Veterans discount at Lowes versus Home Depot
To: DoIt_Yourself@yahoogroups.com
Date: Tuesday, October 30, 2018, 12:12 PM

I have an ID for the local VA hospital but my health
problems

are NOTT service related. For many years this was not a

problem and I always got a 10% discount at both my local

Home Depot in Pennsylvania which is about 1/4 mile from

our driveway and the one in Delaware where there is no sales
tax.

(my VA hospital is in Wilmington, DE so I tend to shop
there

on my way home from appointments.)

In the last few months both of the Home Depots I use have

stopped giving veterans discounts to veterans unless you
have

an ID that indicates you have a service connected
disability.

This has been their official policy for a couple of years

but it varied by store and by employee until recently.

In other words, I was sometimes I was able to get a discount

by just moving to a different cash register because it is up

to each Home Depot employee to look at your ID card and
verify

you are a veteran EVERY time you go to a cash register

to pay

But that policy has now apparently changed and become more
stringent

since I never get a discount anymore at Home Depot at either
of the stores

I use.

I just discovered recently that Lowes, on the other hand,

has a much better way to administer their veterans
discount.

You show them your VA hospital ID one time at customer
service

and they enter that information into their computer
system.

From then on, all you have to do is tell the cashier at the
checkout

counter what your phone number is and you should get the
discount.

They then look up the phone number to verify you are
registered

as a qualified veteran.

Needless to say I am now shopping more frequently at
Lowes,

especially for big dollar items, even though it is a farther
drive

from my home. I discovered all this by chance a month ago
when

we were shopping for a new washing machine. The Lowes

is in the same shopping center as the Comcast store so

after returning all of our Comcast equipment we decided to
stop at

Lowes and check out which model & mfg to buy.

Since the Lowes and Home Depot sale prices were the same

and they both have free delivery, we ended up buying the
clothes

washer at Lowes even though I can see the Home Depot

from our driveway.

My wife has a smartphone and it amazes me how easy it is now

to check prices for brand name products at local stores. She

checked the nearby prices while we were still in the
Lowes.

We saved approx $60 on that one purchase and Home Depot lost

that sale. I will still buy small stuff from Home Depot
because it is

convenient but from now on any large purchase we make, will
probably

be at Lowes.

Re: [DIY] Veterans discount at Lowes versus Home Depot

As a combat wounded, 100% disabled service connected veteran I
demand you disengage your lowes and anywhere else you use your
non-service VA card ...The discount is for service connected ONLY
and not dependents or however you got your VA card...

I will be reporting your email to Lowes HQ ...

You are committing fraud and disrespect to those that fought for this
country and have this precious 10% benefit because we are on the
skimpiest on pension,

FYI HD discontinued their program because of cheats like you.

I demand this person be removed from DIY immediately

His monologue nd pathetic tale is disgusting...

Respectfully,

RJC
