Outback for Military -- 11/11

YUM! Participating Outback Steakhouse's are offering Active Military and Veterans a free Bloomin' Onion and Beverage on Veterans Day.

And don't forget Applebee's is offering an entree.

Restaurants that are offering freebies to military members are doing a simple, but very nice, thing to say thank you. Those of us who aren't military should also remember to say thank you. Military families make many many sacrifices and deserve our gratitude.

We can thank the restaurants by patronizing them.

Off my soapbox now...

Arby's for Military -- 11/11

Participating Arby's locations are offering Active Military and Veterans a free Regular Roast Beef during normal business hours on Veterans Day. Proof of military service is required.

AutoZone loans tools

I didn't know this, but AutoZone has a Loan a Tool program. If you want to do auto repair yourself, but need a tool you can borrow one from them. Cool! You put down a deposit and get it back when you return the tool.

Big thanks to Tiffany at Living as Mom for cluing me in to this!

On a related note: Recently my van began starting very sluggishly. According to my husband, it could have been one of several parts going bad. He took it to AutoZone, they tested and said it was the battery. The battery had been purchased there and was still under warranty. Scott said he had the receipt, but the employee said it wasn't necessary, all info was in the computer and he would bring out a new battery. Scott started taking the old one out, the employee was back in a few minutes with the new one, took the old one and wished Scott a good day. GREAT customer service.

Teachers Lounge sale (STL)

From The Teachers' Lounge newsletter: "This week all Safari museum quality replicas including Toobs are half price. Choices include animals, dinosaurs, princes and princesses as well as knights and horses.'

Toobs are only $4.40. Great for Operation Shoebox or a stocking.

Hasbro/ToysRUs deal


Hasbro has a huge rebate opportunity HERE. Games need to be purchased by 1/31, but do not need to be on the same receipt. I'm not sending mine until I'm finished with after Christmas sales, just in case. ;-)

Toys R Us has a Hasbro sale AND deal this week. Games are on sale, plus a $25 purchase gets you a $10 gift card at check out. Details HERE.

TRU has 7 Hasbro games priced at $3.99 and all have a $2 rebate available. Purchase all 7, qualify for the $10 gift card, receive a $14 rebate and get all 7 games for less than $4. Not too shabby! The rebate is only good on the 'original' versions of the game, character versions do not qualify. You can also only get one rebate per game, so be sure to buy one of each.

Locals, I went to South County TRU last night and got 6 of the $4 games (they are out of Hi Ho Cherry O). To get over $25, I bought one of the $8 games for a Son2 gift. While it doesn't qualify for a rebate, it was almost 50% off. Some of the games are for Toddler Diva, most are for a toy drive. And I have a $10 card to use on Black Friday. :-D

Have fun hunting!
