Exchange Shoppers Can Save 5% with Their MILITARY STAR® Card From Nov. 7-9

DALLAS – Army & Air Force Exchange Service shoppers can save money on holiday gifts by using a MILITARY STAR® card.  From Nov. 7 through Nov. 9, cardholders save an extra 5 percent on MILITARY STAR® card purchases at Army and Air Force Exchange stores.

“MILITARY STAR® cardholders will want to take advantage of this discount,” said U.S. Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Sean Applegate, Exchange senior enlisted advisor. “The weekend of savings is an ideal time to finish off your holiday shopping before crunch time.”

The offer is valid at Army and Air Force Exchange stores only. The MILITARY STAR® card 5 percent discount is not applicable to fuel, tobacco, uniforms/accessories, Exchange Protection Plans, food court or gift card purchases. The MILITARY STAR® card everyday discounts of 10 percent off fast food and 5 cents off per gallon of gas will be applicable but cannot be combined with the 5 percent discount offer.
