Military Discounts List

I have to relay an experience I had a few weeks ago. I was in Phil for a layover for a few hours during some service travel and I wandered into a USO office they had there for US service members. Showed my ID was welcomed in, free wifi, coffee, pop, snacks, chili, you name it.
They even tried to give me phone cards and other freebee's to point where I was embarrassed.
Wherever I go, be it New York, Florida etc I make it a point and stop by the USO, what a bunch of nice people. :salute:
Too bad we don't have something similar in some of the major airports in Canada.
Any similar experiences?
 
Winnipeg did/has a military lounge as of four years ago . It was an initiative of Hol Col Gary Solar of the FGH. We started with a one year trial. Moved from Wpg, so don't know if it exists now.

Not at the new terminal.  Was sad to see that perk go.
 
About a week ago I phone the Cirque du Soleil in Montreal to book some tickets.  My dates never worked out but the opereator informed me that they give military discounts to the Montreal show.

Not sure of how much the discount is or where it is in effect but it sounds good!!

For those in Quebec...(province) the first Wednesday of each month Rona offers 10% discount. Carnival cruiseline SOMETIMES has canadian military discount too.
 
Parking at Pearson International Airport (long term and short term) is free. Show your mil id when leaving
 
This is good to know about Pearson. Any idea if it's the same with retired military with ID.?

Contact Pearson Parking Authority at 416-776-5156.

I also got the info about the free parking.  Do not pay at the machines.  When you go through the cashier, tell them you're military and show your ID.  Apparently it's for any parking (Express, Daily, Value) for any purpose (TD or personal) and for any length of time.  At least, that's what I got in the email.

Wish I had known when we went to Cuba......  :-\
 
Ottawa's and Halifax's Airports could take a page from that book. My wife picked me up in Halifax a couple Fridays ago and it was $9!...to make matters worse, the machine ate my $10 bill so we were stuck with parking security for 45 minutes before they would let us go...and I never did get my $1 change!
 
We we into Michaels craft store in Bayer's Lake (Halifax) and they have an in-store advertised special.

10% Wednesdays with military ID. This discount is allowed on top of any other discount/special they are offering.
There is no mention of how long this discount will be running (no expiry date)
 
Jade Mine in Victoria gave me a 25% discount last week after the manager chatted with me and found out I was retired military.
