Final Thoughts
Originally I was just going to create a post for the SeaWorld deal, but figured I might as well create a dedicated post as I know other merchants will be offering good discounts/freebies. Please comment more of these in the comments and I’ll add them to this list. Also don’t forget to take advantage of the Military Lending Act and  Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA).
Fogo de Chao is 50% off for vets and active duty and 10% off for up to 3 more.

Oh man, 8×12 is huge. I will try my local Ace- putting up a flagpole next month and that would be awesome. Thanks!
Isn’t that the small ones? 8″ x 12″ (inches) 🙂
Oh, that makes a lot more sense 😛 I was excited there for a minute!

I believe several other parks have same offer going on:

Usually the Waves of Honor program apply to all SeaWorld and Busch Gardens Parks, but I don’t have time to look details right now. You get to pick one park, print the tickets, and go right to the gate.
Gadget and all veterans and members of the military, please accept my gratitude for your invaluable service to this country.
Mimi From all my Brothers and Sisters of all the armed services, thank you for the kind words. Please keep in mind the families of those whom were not fortunate enough to return home, as they are the true focus of the holiday. I appreciate the discounts and occasional benefits as a retired military member, but hope the purpose of the holiday is not forgotten. Thanks again.
