Businesses are appreciative of all that the military does. That's why they offer discounts to military and their families throughout the month of November, which is designated as Military Family Appreciation Month.
The following is a list of discounts on goods, services and dining during Military Family Appreciation Month 2024. Please check back as the list is updated.
Keep in mind that most businesses require proof of military service. Not sure what type of ID you need to prove that you're a veteran? We compiled a list of common types of veteran identification.
Note: Not all franchise locations participate in their national chain's programs -- be sure to contact your nearest establishment to make sure they are participating.
