I though my wife and I were just going to re-paint our master bath, man was I wrong.

Seriously, you’ll look at the house and want to do one little thing, next thing you know you’ve spent $2500 bucks in one room. Then there is still a bunch of stuff you’ll want to do.

Discount direct (I believe it is called) is about $1500/yr and worth every penny if you plan on spending that much in improvements/repairs. I know 2 families that have it and have really made out very well on the deal. My improvements are on hold for now because I’m out of stuff to do until I build another garage… but it is worth looking into.

you should be able to get a contractor card at HD if you inquire about it… i’ve flipped a few houses over the last few years and got one… 10% off of everything, delivery and sometimes you can get bulk pricing on stuff… unfortunately you usually have to go between like 7 and 5 to the contractor desk
