Thank you to each and every one of the veterans out there that have fought for our freedom! Without you we would not have such an amazing country to raise our children in and provide them with the freedom and opportunities we have been afforded. Thank you also to the families of the veterans and all military personnel that endure months and years apart. Your selflessness and courage are unmeasurable. Below is a list of freebies to take advantage of on this day of thanks to all veterans. It's nowhere near enough for the sacrifice you have made but it's a way for many companies to express their gratitude. Enjoy and please share :)
