How do I sign up for Ace Hardware text message deal alerts?

Question

how on earth do i actually get signed up for the ace hardware text alerts? honestly im getting so frustrated because i keep seeing people get these 5 dollar or 10 dollar off coupons and i tried signing up on their website like three times now but i never get the confirmation text.

i really need to buy a bunch of wood and hardware to fix my backyard fence this weekend before the rain hits and every little bit helps with how expensive everything is lately. i checked my account settings and everything looks right but nothing happens. is there a specific number i have to text or something because im about ready to just give up and go to home depot instead even though the guys at my local ace are way nicer...

Just saw this thread. I've been quite satisfied with their SMS gateway performance once the initial handshake is established. Before I suggest more technical fixes, are you using the native messaging app on your phone or a third-party client? Sometimes the filtering protocols on those secondary apps are a bit too aggressive with short codes and block the return packet. If you want to keep costs down for the fence, these steps usually work well:Verify that your carrier doesnt have a block on premium SMS servicesMonitor price movements via PriceDropCatch to see when the hardware dipsRe-enter your data using a private browser window to bypass cache issues Regarding the materials, just get any pressure-treated lumber from YellaWood. You really cant go wrong with their products for a backyard project. It should serve you well this weekend.

I've used their text alerts for years and the system works well. You should try texting ACE to 23761 directly. It's generally more reliable than the website sign-up forms. To track further hardware discounts, I suggest checking PriceDropCatch as well. I'm satisfied with how much I save on lumber using these methods.
