2009 Veterans Day Discounts
Veteran’s Day is just around the corner, and it is a popular holiday to say thanks to our country’s military members. Many restaurants, stores, and other businesses offer free items and discounts to military members, retirees, and other veterans. Most places require proof of service such as a military or retiree ID card, DD Form 214, VFW card, or other proof of service, so be prepared if you are asked for proof of service.
In the spirit of the season we thought we would share a few of this year’s promotions with our readers.
Golden Corral’s Military Appreciation Monday
Golden Corral’s 9th annual Military Appreciation Monday dinner is scheduled for Monday, November 16, 2009, from 5 to 9 pm in all Golden Corral restaurants nationwide (note that it is NOT on the actual Veterans Day). The free dinner meal is open to anyone who served in the US Military and is open to all veterans, retirees, active duty military members, and members of the National Guard or Reserves.
- Free “Thank You” Dinner
- Monday, Nov. 16, 2009, 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Applebee’s Free Meal on Veterans Day
Applebee’s is supporting military veterans again this year by offering military members and veterans a free meal on Veterans Day. Simply show proof of military service, including showing up in uniform, military ID, military service organization ID (VFW card, etc), a picture of you in uniform, or other proof, and select a free meal from a special menu. For more information, visit the AppleBee’s Veterans Day page.
Other Veteran’s Day Discounts and free meals:
Last year’s free meals on Veteran’s Day included Golden Corral, McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood Restaurants, and Applebees.

~ But, as a Vetran (thank YOU for your service!)… it may bump you a little higher… like a minority… but I doubt it…

Military Police with Army if you like hard work.
Or Security Forces with the Air Force.
My uncle is an Air Force officer and it's like your typical 9-5 with pt and a few events on the weekend.
Be prepared to give at least 3 plus years active duty.

Basically the same. I think Home Improvement stores carry more big ticket items like cabinets and appliances. Many hardware stores call themselves DIY centers and have qualified workers to help with questions.

The wireless network adapter allows you to connect to wireless (wifi) networks. The ethernet cable…well, it's a cable.
All depends on whether you want cables running all over your house or if you prefer wireless.
