Coles Supermarkets is offering soldiers a 10 per cent Easter discount.
The supermarket giant will give the discount on groceries to anyone with a valid Department of Veteran Affairs card or defence personnel card from today until Monday, April 9.

The discount is not available on tobacco, alcohol or gift cards.

Lowe's has always gave me the 10% off whenever I buy. Came in pretty handy when I bought $4000.00 worth of cabinets and $2500 in appliances!.
