Freebies and deals for Vets on Veteran's Day (11/11/14)

Every year we say thanks to our Vets for the sacrifices they have made for their country. There are multiple businesses that also give thanks. I am just posting some links here, this will be ongoing and updated as I find more.


First one is a list of Restaurants offering free meals, some are just for appetizers or specific items, but other's offer a lot more. Make sure you find your military I.D. ahead of time. My best friend's parents go for their date night every year for Veteran's Day as they are on a tight budget, I think it is lovely that they at least get some rewards for their service. 

My personal favorites are

Participating restaurants are offering current servicemembers and veterans a free Magnificent Seven meal which includes two eggs, three buttermilk pancakes, and a choice of two bacon strips or two sausage links.
