‘Hard Work Pays Off’ to the Tune of $25,000 in MILITARY STAR’s Back-to-School Sweepstakes

DALLAS – Exchange and commissary shoppers can make their back-to-school shopping pay dividends with MILITARY STAR’s Hard Work Pays Off Sweepstakes.

Through the sweepstakes, 100 winners will each receive a $100 exchange gift card, a $100 commissary gift card and a $50 entertainment gift card or Exchange food court gift card (which can also be used at Reel Time Theaters), for a total prize value of $250.

Shoppers automatically earn an entry with two purchases at their local commissary plus two purchases at military exchange locations with their MILITARY STAR® card from Aug. 1 through 31. Participating operations include the Army & Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard exchanges; ShopMyExchange.com; myNavyExchange.com; ShopCGX.com; exchange concessionaires; the commissary; and Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) locations that accept MILITARY STAR.

“Military families do a lot of back-to-school shopping this time of year at the exchange and the commissary,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Luis Reyes, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s senior enlisted advisor. “It’s a perfect time to reward our service members and their families with $25,000 in prizes.”

Winners will be announced on or about Sept. 30. For more information and official rules, visit MyECP.com/CustomerAds/Page/Exchange.com.
