Price matching

Lowe’s Price Promise works for both in-store and online items. You must know that their price match policy does not apply to certain brands. To read more about their Price Promise, click here.

Their rules for in-store price matching:

“If you find a current lower price on an identical in-stock item from another local retailer, we’ll match the price. Just bring the ad, printout, or photo and show an associate so we can validate the price on the competitor’s website or ad to complete the price match. Lowe’s Price Promise includes the price of the item(s) plus shipping or delivery cost.”

Their rules for Online Price Matching:

“If you find a current lower price on an identical item from a qualifying online retailer, just call 1-877-465-6937 for validation. Lowe’s Price Promise includes the price of the item(s) plus shipping or delivery cost. Price Promise items must be available from competitor to ship to customer’s location.”

Don’t pay for shipping

Most orders of $45 or more will automatically before taxes or fees will qualify for free shipping in the 48 contiguous states. If you’re spending less than $45, you can choose a free in-store pick-up to avoid shipping fees. 

Appliances get free local delivery which can yield big savings. When comparing prices, check to see if there is a delivery charge with Lowe’s competitors. Plenty of Lowe’s appliances also come with free installation but check the website for specifics. Do you want to read their full mechanics on qualified orders for free shipping? Read here.

Return shipping or exchange

You can return or exchange your online purchase at any Lowe’s store for ease of convenience and time. It works whether or not you have proof of purchase, but it does come with a set of rules. Your best move is to approach the customer service desk so they can help you resolve your return or exchange. 

If you’re a green thumb who wants to get the plants you bought, a receipt is required for any tree, shrub, or perennial purchased at Lowe’s within one year of the original purchase date. All other plants fall under their 90-day return policy. 

Read Lowe’s Return Policy here.

Shop at Lowe’s and Get The Difference Back if the Price Drops

Lowe’s Price Protection Policy aims to give its customers competitive pricing. And if an item you recently purchased drops its price, you can ask for a price adjustment. This is valid for up to 90 days after the purchase. 

Here’s a tip: If you make a big-ticket purchase, add a reminder to your calendar and check the price for the next 30 days. Once you find a lower price with an entirely different competitor, reach out to Lowe’s within the 90 days timeframe.

Shop at Lowe’s and Buy A Discounted Gift Card

I have used Raise.com to purchase discounted gift cards. If you don’t know exactly how much you need, you can buy a card for a little less and pay the difference separately. Typically you can expect to save around 4-5%, but I have seen discounted gift cards for Lowe’s as high as 10% off. 

MVPs Pro Rewards Program

The MVPs Pro Rewards Program from Lowe’s is a loyalty program designed specifically for professionals or enthusiasts in the construction, repair, and maintenance industries. Get benefits like special pricing, extended returns, and exclusive promotions when you become a member of this loyalty program! 

Members get to access a dedicated Pro Services desk, which provides support and solutions for your business needs. Additionally, members can also earn rewards points for every purchase made. You can redeem the points for store credit or special perks. Do these benefits sound great to you? If they do, you might want to check out the whole page to learn more and sign up by using this link.

Use a Cash Back Site

Ebates/Rakuten is the cashback site I have used for years. If you are shopping online, log in to Ebates first and then shop as usual. Every quarter, you are sent a check for the rebates you earn from shopping online once certain minimums are met. 

New users get a bonus gift card after their first purchase. * To qualify for a Welcome Bonus, you must be a new member and make minimum qualifying purchases totaling at least twenty-five dollars ($25) within ninety (90) days of becoming a Member.

Shop at Lowe’s and Check the End Caps and the In-Store Clearance Areas

At Lowe’s, you can often find clearance items and price markdowns on end caps in the store. If you see open box items, floor models and damaged items politely ask if they can be discounted even more. It never hurts to ask!

Bonus for Veterans

If you are serving or have served in the military, you can get 10% off on eligible items. You can get this with proof of service. This is Lowe’s way of saying thank you to all veterans. 

Other perks include:

  • No Annual Savings Limit
  • Easy Registration Through ID.me
  • Online and In-Store Savings
  • Eligibility for Spouses
