Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Lousy picture from my "flip phone" on a rainy night at the Fresno Lowes... but one good reason to shop there. There were several, near the door. Only closer spots were the Handicapped. Not a veteran, but I thought it a nice gesture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 We have those around my parts too. Not just at Lowes either. I believe some also indicate disabled veteran as well. Some local stores also have specially marked spots that say Expectant Mother that are close to the store front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our local store has one of those. The sign wasn't up yet, just the painted image on the parking spot. It looked like a tailgater, fat guy at a grill. Thought maybe they were going to do grill demos or bring in a food cart for all the contractors to get lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 It is a nice salutation. The only one legally enforceable is for handicapped persons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could go into details and expletives but it is probably not necessary here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Lowes has a year-round 10% vet discount, and the aforementioned parking spaces. Our local Home Depot has no parking spaces and discounts only on Veterans and Memorial Day weekends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
