A lot of places take veterans benefits to help aid in rent at assisted living homes and some private care homes. When we get older we think the rent for a private facility is way beyond our reach. However, if you are a veteran or a spouse of a veteran you may be entitled to a substantial amount of money to go towards your room and board every month. Also, many Veterans Administration hospitals give you free medical attention and medications.

In order to get a veteran's discount at Lowe's I must present my veteran's card. Do I actually have to pay for the item or can someone else pay?

Maybe a call to the store manager would answer the question, they are a good company & I personally don't think they would care who actually pays the bill, someone else could be buying it as a gift for you or they may owe you money and you may be using the bartering method. Thank your husband for his service!
