DALLAS – The Army & Air Force Exchange is making Fridays even better for military shoppers with its Free Friday giveaways.
Authorized military shoppers worldwide who comment on the Exchange’s Free Friday post each Friday at Facebook.com/ShopMyExchange will be automatically entered to win trending products, including kitchen and housewares, furniture, power tools and more.
“Free Fridays add excitement to the end of the week,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Rich Martinez, the Exchange’s senior enlisted advisor. “By commenting on Facebook, shoppers have an easy opportunity to win something that adds value to their homes and daily life.”
In 2025, shoppers won nearly $25,000 in Free Friday prizes, including appliances, bedding, patio sets and more. Since the giveaway started in 2017, military shoppers have won more than $185,000 in prizes.
Among 2025 winners is Daniel Duplichien, of Keesler Air Force Base, an Air Force Veteran with 22 years of service, who won a vacuum set.
“I’ve entered a few sweepstakes hoping to win,” Duplichien said. “Then suddenly, I won a Free Fridays giveaway—two vacuum cleaners. The standup one will soon replace my old one, then the other will be a gift to family or friends. Thanks, Free Friday giveaways.”
Free Friday giveaways are open to all authorized Exchange shoppers 18 and older, including honorably discharged and disabled Veterans, and Department of War and Coast Guard civilians and retirees.
All comments made on the Free Friday Facebook post by 11:59 p.m. Central time on the day of the post will be entered. Winners will be randomly selected and notified by Facebook message from the verified Facebook.com/shopmyexchange account and/or email from [email protected]. Shoppers can find official Free Friday rules here.
