Veterans Day 2012 Discounts!

The wonderful folks at AMVETS.org have compiled a listing of discounts and specials to honor those that served for our country this coming Veterans Day (Sunday, November 11, 2012). We’ve listed the businesses located in North Carolina below.

A couple of caveats, though. As American Veterans notes, “keep in mind that most busi­nesses require some proof of mil­i­tary ser­vice, this includes a VA Uni­ver­sal Access Card, Mil­i­tary I.D., DD-214 (Dis­charge Papers), Vet­er­ans Ser­vice Orga­ni­za­tion Card (VSO’s include groups like the VFW, DAV, AmVets, MOAA, FRA, and the Amer­i­can Legion), or in some cases a pic­ture of the vet­eran in uniform.” 

Additionally, “not all fran­chise loca­tions par­tic­i­pate in their national chain’s Vet­er­ans Day pro­grams, be sure con­tact your near­est estab­lish­ment to be sure they are participating.” That being said, to the specials!
