I spoke with a Home Depot cashier with 20 years' time in service at Home Depot.
She stated something I wasn't tracking. Home Depot's revised military discount (10 percent) is limited to $4,000 in purchases per year ($400 maximum savings). That was the reason the Home Depot military discount program required registration. Home Depot is tracking the money one is spending.
I asked the Home Depot cashier why the "cap" of $4,000. She said the discount was being abused. The intent was for veterans to use the discount for individual use. She said Home Depot discovered excessive abuse by contractors using the military discount purchases that were not for personal use.
The above has not been verified, validated, or accredited. Just something I was told by a Home Depot cashier working at the same Home Dept for 20 years. And in Illinois, most Home Depots' still give the military discount just for asking and showing proof of being a veteran. I only found this in Illinois. In Utah, South Carolina, Washington State- the military discount at Home Depot was only applied if one had formally registered for the discount on-line.
