Batteries and battery packs, router bits, small power tools (drills/drivers/multitools may all fit), bulk fasteners, saw blades, paint by the gallon, motor oil, and any other smallish item that doesn't normally see discounts outside the 11% sales.

The best part about the 15% bag sale is that it's an INSTANT DISCOUNT at the register. No rebate to mail for merchandise credit. The rule about having to fit everything in the bag is flexible, too. The stores have the SKUs preprogrammed to know what items will fit, so unless they changed something this year, anything in your cart that would fit in the bag will just ring up 15% off, so load up.
Menards, the store that single handedly fights inflation…..if it weren't for Menards Home Depot and Lowe's would've ran over us like trucks…..
Great time to purchase hand tools like Knipex, even grocery items.

I didn't find their system to be perfect.

Flexible pipe insulation, for instance, did not get the discount. Didn't bother to say anything over the 30 cents, but easily fit inside when coiled or folded. Which didn't seem to break any rules, as far as I could tell.
That's a fair point, though the system is likely based on the dimension of the item as it sits on the shelf, but you can also make the case to the cashier that it fits and they're allowed to override.

Quote from SeventiesVet :
Thanks. But what I mean was 11% credit that Menards had already sent out to customers from past purchases. Whether that credit can be applied with the bag discount.
Yes. Once you receive the credit (it will be a postcard in the mail), you can take it in-store and use it during the bag sale.

There are no restrictions on when/how you can use those credits and they NEVER expire because it's really just money you already gave them that they're giving back to you to keep spending in their stores. It's a helluva racket, really, but it's a genius way to lock in repeat customers.

Is there a way to have the bag discount applied to an online ship-to-store order consisting of items that are otherwise appropriately sized?

I hope this is a sarcasm. John Menard didn't become billionaire by fighting inflation. I know there are some good deals but have heard of plenty of horror stories of how things work there by ex employees too. Even their CFO was underpaid for that organization for being female.
people can look up the menard's ethics requirements they were pushing and threatening store managers with a salary reduction if their stores were to unionize

Wisconsin is pretty anti-union state now. Not seeing that happening in my lifetime.

correct, because they know what fits in the bag, you do not physically need to fill a bag. I lay all my items on the conveyor belt and lay the bag on top. So many people near the registers are trying to play tetris, tearing the bag and running to get another bag. No need to do this.
Depends on the store/manager. Some require that it *be in* the bag

Fine print says it is in form of store credit rebate, NOT INSTANT CASH DISCOUNT

My receipt strongly disagrees. I bought 2 tubes of silicon sealant for $5.84 each—they ring up as a line item for $9.93 with a detail line under them that reads "15% Bag Sale (11.68 - 1.75)"

You're interpreting the generic fine print they put in every one of their flyers to address the various "After rebate" item prices in them as the terms of the bag sale. The bag sale is NOT a rebate, it is an instant discount. They don't print a rebate receipt for you to mail in for redemption, you get 15% off at point of sale.

The terms are spelled out on page 14 of my local weekly flyer on a yellow background under the picture of a 6' Keller fiberglass step-ladder as well as printed on the bags themselves: "Discount applies to our regular and sale prices of all in-stock products."

Menards is specific about the word choice. "Rebate" means you have to work to get the money, "discount" means you just have to check out and it's that price.

HD stopped their 11% match early last year. I would expect that they no longer match the bag sale for 2025.
Confirmed. Dropped in today and guy said they got a memo that HD is not matching 15% bag sale this year.

My store does not require anything be in the bag -- it just automatically rings up. Was surprised that a 20 lb. bag of bird seed also got the discount. Ended up getting several 20lb. bags of sunflower hearts for $26.29 each. Doubt the discount would apply to larger bags like the 50lb sunflower seed. But 20 lb. and less at least should get the discount.

My store requires them to activate a switch to put the discount and they have to do it for each item.
