Friday's Freebie...

Its Veterans day and time to reflect and remember the service men and women of our country.  Their gift of freedom is something we take for granted everyday, but is one of the most precious things we have.  I would like to personally say thank you for all that you have done, to those that have served, those that are serving and those that will serve.  Today's freebie is with our Veterans in mind as well as some great deals.  If you have more to add please leave them in the comments so others can find them.  Thanks!
