Veterans’ Day Deals
It’s that time of year for our annual list of Veterans’ Day deals. Hope you have the chance to get a free meal or a great discount. Here is this year’s list:
- Red Robin: They get first mention because they emailed me directly to tout their deal for us.
Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Brews Salutes Military with Free Tavern Double Burger and Bottomless Steak Fries on Veterans Day
The Gourmet Burger Authority™ to Donate $10,000 to USO in Honor of Those Who Serve
- UNO Pizzeria has a good deal too (and I love their Chicago style pizza). They will give you a free entrée or individual pizza.
Don’t forget Chipotle. They are offering a BOGO (Buy One, Get One free) on burritos and most of their items, Stop by Chipotle with your U.S. military ID on Friday, November 11th, from 3pm-close so you can receive A BUY-ONE/GET-ONE FREE BURRITO, BOWL, SALAD OR ORDER OF TACOS as a small (foil-wrapped) token of thanks for your service.
