Deals for Veterans

Free items include meals at Chili's and Applebee's and Slurpees.

Today, there will be several special deals just for veterans and, in some cases, active military members, to thank them for their service.

Veterans, active military, and retired U.S. military personnel with more of a sweet tooth can head to 7-Eleven between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. for a free small Slurpee. Accompanying family members can also get a complimentary Slurpee. There are two 7-Eleven stores in the area, including 7-Eleven at 4320 Katella Ave, Los Alamitos and 7 Eleven at 1200 Pacific Coast Hwy, Seal Beach

From 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. veterans can eat free at Chili’s. The meals include any lunch combo, margarita chicken tacos, Santa Fe chicken wrap, Oldtimer burger with cheese, margarita grilled chicken, chicken crispers, and Cobb salad. Just bring proof of service and show it to your server. The nearest Chili’s is at 10643 Valley View St, Cypress, CA
