Free Meals for Veterans on Veterans Day

The Brick comes from a military family -- his dad was career Navy, one brother career Air Force and the other, career Navy. The Brick himself spent six years in the Navy before I met him.

My own dad did his military stint in the Army, and my grandfather and uncles also served in the military. Their work -- and the sacrifices of the many who've served over the years -- have given us a warm spot in our heart for anyone who's a veteran.

That's what makes all these specials, offered by many different restaurants on Veterans Day, so moving. I'm glad they recognize our heroes' (and heroines') service, too.

If you're active or a veteran, take advantage -- the list, so far, is here, and includes many of the major chains, from Applebee's to Red Robin.

Enjoy. And thank the next soldier, when you see them, for what they're doing on our behalf.

Free Beginning Quilting Lessons!

Whoa...you don't come across this very often.

Olive Plants and Cornerstones is offering a 6-lesson E-course on quilting...free for you, if you sign up to 'follow' her blog! Six how-to videos should be of help along the way, as you hone your quilting skills.

Go here to start the process.  

Enjoy.

A Free Meal? At IKEA?

Yep, if you act fast, and request their current catalog.

Go here -- and when you're finished, you'll get a coupon to print out. It's only good, however, through the month of August 2013, so don't delay.

Free Slurpees at 7-11 on July 11!

Get a free Slurpee from 11 a.m. - 7 p.m.

Who knows...maybe it will inspire you to do the...

Or maybe not. But they do taste good on a hot summer day...

Free Food At Arby's April 15

What do you care, since Arby's is offering free curly fries and potato cakes all day on April 15!

It's the third year in a row that they've done it. (Nice of them.)

Free Finish!

A free sample of Finish dishwasher product?

Hey, life's sweet.

Just go here to get your free sample.

(thanks for mentioning it, One Frugal Chick.)

Tuna Coupon(s)

A 50-cent coupon for tuna? 

That will practically pay for it in some areas...especially if your grocery store doubles coupons.

Chicken of the Sea is planning to host regular coupon giveaways on Wed - Friday...connected with Lent, no doubt. They're also posting recipes to help you use that delicious tuna. This week:

Shanghai Wraps

Here it is -- and if you back-click, you can print this coupon off three times. Thrice the savings.

Free Pizza for a Simple Guess

That's right...Papa John's is giving away a large 1-ingredient pizza if you guess correctly on the Superbowl coin toss. Doesn't cost a thing to enter -- and who wouldn't enjoy a warm, gooey slice of pizza, if you're right?

Go here to register. If you're right, you get an e-mail coupon after Feb. 4. Good luck...

(not that I don't enjoy seeing Peyton Manning on this commercial, but the Broncos aren't going to be anywhere near Superbowl Stadium in February. Sigh...) 

UPDATE:  I didn't win, but I learned a lesson -- if you enter yourself and a second person, either of you has a 50/50 chance to win. In my case, Daughter #2 enjoyed a fresh, hot free pizza -- and I had to make do with only half off. Darn. 

P&G Samples, with a simple Click!

Welcome to the new year! It's nice to have a bright, shiny one, ready to use. Who knows what opportunities will come our way...

Here's your chance to try some things...and have coupons ready for stocking up on basics like shampoo, toothpaste and such.

P.S. I had a heck of a time initially submitting the page, once I'd checked the samples I wanted. After you scroll down as far as you can, hit 'Tab' -- it will take you to page end. Then hit 'Enter' to submit. 

Thanks, Northern Cheapskate, for sharing this opportunity!
