Made a purchase at BPS yesterday and did the usually, show military ID at counter to get 10% off.
Cashier informs me that it is now 5% due to the recent Cabelas acquisition.
My immediate thought was, it is odd that you purchased them and had to adjust your programs.
Not sure if consumers are paying off the purchase price of Cabela's with fewer discounts, or if the new credit card company had something to do with it.
I feel privileged to get any discount as a 20+ year vet. But the reasoning, unless the cashier was just parroting her managers statement, was a bit silly.
So, off to buy some stuff at some online stores that recognize veterans at 5% more than BPS.
