Friday, 11 November 2011It was Veterans Day. We decided to take advantage of
some of the freebies!
These cakes were not freebies. They were displayed at the Sam's Club (6922, South Mingo Road, Tulsa) and attracted by attention.
Sam's Club gave away
Hugo collapsible cane to veterans on the 9th, 10th & 11th November. We didn't know about the 9th and 10th so we went only today. We are thankful that veterans do not have to be a member of the Sam's Club to get one. Luckily they are still available. Mike was very happy to receive it. Thank you Hugo and Sam's Club!
Car washing was not in our plan today. Mike read somewhere about free car wash for veterans, but didn't take note of the places giving the free car washing. Good thing we saw the sign board while driving to our next destination. Thank you Phillips 66 (Paradise) for the free wash.
Our first time here - Phillips 66 (Paradise) Car Wash at 9637 East 71st Street, Tulsa. We learnt that they only charged $3 for a wash. That is the cheapest price that I know of in Tulsa. I thought $5 was the cheapest, so this was a good thing to know!
We decided to have our lunch at Texas Roadhouse, 11111 East 71st Street, Tulsa. They were giving free meal to veterans from 11am-2pm. We only had to pay for my meal plus tip. Thank you Texas Roadhouse!
Arby's was offering a free roasted beef sandwich this day, so on our way home we drove to an Arby's and Mike got his free sandwich, which he will eat another day. Thank you Arby's.
Applebees, Chili's and Olive Garden were giving free meal to veterans and active duty military today as well. We went to Applebees last November 11th. Olive Garden is my favorite restaurant so we decided to go for dinner at Olive Garden this November 11th. Like the Texas Roadhouse, we only had to pay for my meal plus tip. Thank you Olive Garden!
Monday, 14 November 2011Golden Corral! They gave free meal from 6-9 pm the Monday after the Veterans Day. For people who can eat, it is worth it because it is buffet and you eat all you want! Mike got his free while I paid my meal $9.89 (senior discount of $0.60) + Tax $0.84 amounting to $10.73. For that price, I guess it is okay if I considered it for 2 persons (even though Mike ate free). I don't eat much so for me I wouldn't go and eat there.
