I brought ten of these cards from ebay, as we were building a deck. We spend well over $2000.00 over the course of a few weeks and saved well over $200. For a couple of dollars it is well worth it especially for the larger projects. The only thing it did not cover was delivery.

Get one of the moving kits at your local post office…there’s a coupon for 10% off at Home Depot. Easy and free.

Sears would have matched the price, plus 11%. Plus you would have gotten the additional repair services of a real appliance store.

Hate to be a debbie downer (whah-whaaaaah), but something smells fishy about those coupons on ebay. Even if they are not counterfeit, the fine print on the coupon says “void if sold.” One ebay listing stated (paraphrasing) “You are buying a service, not the actual coupon.” Yeah, right. Anyway, it’s unfortunately a gray area here.

Did you look into those coupons on EBay much. I was looking a while back and it seems like most of them are contounfeit, and it’s just the luck of draw whether the cashier notices it or not.

I think that you would do well to look into Raw Milk and its benefits. I think that 9 gallons is a lot of milk and I think you will quickly realize that Raw milk is wonderful for you.

Please let me know what you think after doing a little research on it.

Wow 10% off discount. That is soooo cool. So Home Depot is really getting screwed on that deal huh? Oh wait, Home Depot sells at RETAIL prices so that means the item you’re buying is already marked up 20 – 30% anyway. Well I guess 10% off of 30% inflated prices is a better deal than paying the full 30% markup.

Try finding the wholesale price for that model number. You’ll be suprised

You can still register for the printable Lowe’s coupon at https://www.lowesmoving.com. One thing worth noting is that although the coupon is one time use at Lowe’s, Home Depot will accept competitor’s coupons (including the Lowe’s printable) and has no way of verifying whether it has ever been used or not, essentially meaning you can use it over and over again (at least until the expiration date).

Good tip on buying the gift cards at the grocery store. We will probably do that too.

Some other tips for saving at Home Depot:

If you have one of the 5% cash back credit cards, look for Home Depot gift cards at your local grocery store. Purchase the gift cards with your cash back credit card and you in effect save an additional 5% off your Home Depot purchase.

Before you go to eBay and pay for a 10% off coupon, go to your customer service counter at Home Depot and tell the rep you are getting ready to make a big purchase, but are looking for any active coupons or discounts they might have. I have been very successful with the customer service rep just handing me a 10% off coupon and sometimes a rebate form I never would have known existed.

If you have a Lowe’s in your area or other Home Depot competitor, you can use any coupons or specials they have and Home Depot will match. When I purchased my house 2 years ago and was doing a bunch of work, Lowe’s at that time had a 10% off printable coupon on their web site. Between the USPS change of address 10% off coupons, matching the Lowe’s 10% off coupons and just plain asking the customer service rep for discounts, I saved a bunch of money on 4 or 5 Home Depot buying trips.

P.S. – If the customer service counter is busy, don’t ask for the discount – try to get them when not busy – then they are the nicest and most helpful with the discounts and rebates.

Good Luck!
