Veterans Day is Thursday, November 11, and while we should show our appreciation year-round, it's the date of the official federal holiday when everyone can honor those who have served in the United States Armed Forces.

Veterans across the Northland should take advantage of free meals, discounts and other specials that are provided to them by terrific businesses.

For example, Duluth Candy Co. is offering a deal for all veterans with a sweet tooth. All veterans have to do is bring in their ID to receive a free small trail mix and they will also be entered into a drawing for a tin of Duluth Candy co. popcorn mix. Duluth Candy Co. is located at 103 E. Superior Street.

Walgreens is also among the many retail businesses providing for veterans on Veterans Day and beyond. On November 11 through 14, veterans, active-duty military and their families receive 20% off regular price eligible store items at any Walgreens.

You can see a lot more retail related deals above, including a 10% discount to all veterans from Home Depot, who also offers the 10% discount year round to active duty and retirees.

We salute all veterans and you all should absolutely take advantage of as many freebies and discounts as you can on Veterans Day!
