    We went to the Beer festival in Peterborough over the summer and thought we'd ask for a discount on the £5 entrance fee. To out surprise, the lady behind the counter just asked to see our 1250s and let us in for free! More money for Beer:beer:

    If you email The Diamond Store your forces details they will email you back a substantial discount code.

    Ooooh, thanks for that, I have just emailed them :j (it's my birthday next month :D )
  • try booking your holiday with Virgin they advertise 5% discount on-line but Armed forces receive a 10% discount. I booked on-line got the 5% then phoned the free phone number and asked for the 10% armed forces discount all you need is service number and renk/rate they won't apply the discount on-line
  • Just wondering where you can get discount with your MOD 90 my other half is in the Army and i have heard rumors that they can be quite effective money saving tools.
    Just trying to make ends meet a little more comfortably :rotfl:

    Thanks for that ex-crab (from another ex crab!). I have just entered.

    I have stayed at the Grinkle Park Hotel twice before and it is a really nice hotel, set on the edge of the North Yorkshire moors. I can certainly commend it.

    ex-crab,

    Ive merged the threads.

    The thread is covered by the whole 'Military Discount' umbrella.

    It falls into 2 parts of the forum, the armed forces section & the competition section.

    Regards,

    AliasOmega
  • If you show your Military I.D. Card at the moment you get in free and other family members get in for £11.00 each. Better than paying £22.00 for 4 years and up.
    About time we got something discounted, America look after their soldiers better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
