DALLAS – U.S. military Veterans are Veterans for Life—and they are part of the Army & Air Force Exchange Service family for life, too.
Since 2017, all honorably discharged Veterans have been able to shop the Exchange online tax-free at ShopMyExchange.com.
This year also marks the first holiday shopping season since the Exchange welcomed more than 4.1 million disabled Veterans and certain caregivers back to their in-store shopping benefit on Jan. 1, 2020.
“The Exchange is committed to serving our heroes, during their service and after,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Kevin Osby, the Exchange’s senior enlisted advisor. “It’s an honor to offer Veterans savings throughout the holiday shopping season.”
The Exchange has made providing a safe, sanitized and secure shopping experience its No. 1 priority through the COVID-19 pandemic. Those shopping in stores will see safety measures throughout, including acrylic shields at checkout, floor decals to ensure physical distancing, hand sanitizer stations, signs requiring face coverings while in stores and more. Contactless shopping is available with Exchange curbside pickup.
By shopping the Exchange, Veterans also help those who wear the uniform today. 100% of Exchange earnings are reinvested in the military community, including though a dividend to Quality-of-Life programs such as Child, Youth and School Services; Armed Forces Recreation Centers; and more.
