Whether you're looking to save on stuff for you or get an early jump on your holiday shopping, these sales are worth taking a look at

As consumers gear up for Black Friday in a few weeks, several businesses are looking to capitalize on shoppers who want to beat the crowds by taking advantage of Veterans Day, a federal holiday that sees several employees having the day off.

Veterans Day is a federal holiday that occurs every November 11, to honor the men and women who have served in the armed forces for the United States. The day's history coincides with Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, celebrated in other countries to celebrate the end of World War I. The date was determined by hostilities during the war ending at 11:00 a.m. on November 11th, 1918.
