NORTH KINGSTOWN, RI, – November 2, 2026 — Ocean State Job Lot (OSJL), home of Crazy Deals® and one of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic’s leading discount retail chains, is pleased to announce the return of its annual Military and Veteran Crazy Deal Days promotion, taking place Thursday, November 5th through Wednesday, November 11th, at all 177 store locations.
During the weeklong promotion, active-duty, National Guard and reserve military service members, veterans, and their immediate family members and dependents who are registered Job Lot Insider® Club members will receive a Crazy Deal® Gift Card equal to 40% of their qualifying in-store purchase of $20 or more. For example, an eligible customer who spends $50 will receive a $20 Crazy Deal® Gift Card to use toward a future purchase.
The annual promotion provides military families an opportunity to save on a wide selection of merchandise, including household essentials, food and pantry staples, apparel, pet supplies, seasonal products and holiday items, while earning additional value for their next shopping trip.
“Veterans and military families are part of every community we serve, and this is one way we can show our appreciation in a tangible way,” said David Sarlitto, Vice President of Corporate Giving, Ocean State Job Lot. “Whether someone is stocking up on household essentials or preparing for the holidays, we hope the extra value from a Crazy Deal Gift Card helps make their next shopping trip a little easier.”
Military and Veteran Crazy Deal Days is part of OSJL’s ongoing commitment to supporting veterans, service members and their families. The retailer also recently launched its 11th annual Buy, Give, Get Coats Program, which allows customers to purchase a winter coat for $45 and donate it back to OSJL in exchange for a $45 Crazy Deal® Gift Card to use on a future purchase. Approximately 90,000 winter coats are expected to be available through this year’s program for distribution to people in need, including veterans, across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic.
