Tops to honor US veterans & active military with 11% discount this Veterans Day

Tops Friendly Markets will once again offer military personnel and their immediate families an 11% discount off of their grocery bill this Veterans Day. This marks the 11th year Tops has been extending this discount to military personnel and their families. Since its inception, the Veterans Day discount has saved veterans and their families more than $781,000.

On Saturday, Nov. 11, Tops Markets will provide an 11% discount on total orders to all veterans and immediate family members in the same household, who shop at any Tops location. Customers should present proof of service that they, or an immediate family member, are a U.S. veteran, active duty, reserve or retired military personnel, to automatically receive an 11% discount off their total purchase that day.

Tops Friendly Markets President Ron Ferri said, “The respect and gratitude we have for the people who serve and have served in the military is immeasurable, and for that we are forever grateful. We wanted to support local military personnel by giving back to our associates and customers who have courageously defended our country and made many sacrifices through their military service.”

A press release stated, “Tops is a longtime supporter of military associates and customers. The company’s support of military organizations includes, but is not limited to, support of the Wall that Heals, American Veterans Tribute Traveling Wall, Honor Flight missions and golf tournaments; sending care packages for troops serving domestically and overseas; VA hospital visits; participation in veteran job fairs, parades and expos; and ‘Tops Stars for Our Troops’ program, by which stars from embroidered U.S. flags slated for retirement are presented to veterans, active duty personnel and first responders.”
