Several business will be offering some deals or free stuff to past and present military personnel on November 11th for Veterans Day. These can be really cool deals for active duty and veterans. I live in a a city that has a large population of active duty military and veterans so some of theses places can get quite packed. I think I’ve only cashed in on one of these deals once and it was for a free car wash. If you qualify and want to know who has the Veterans day hook up, then here you go. These are just some of the many places that are offering deals on Veterans Day and some local Colorado deals at the end for my fellow Colorado vets.
