Exchange ‘Salad Wednesdays’ are Good for the Body—and The Wallet
DALLAS – Soldiers and Airmen wanting to eat right and save money can turn to the Army & Air Force Exchange Service for “Salad Wednesday.”
Every Wednesday, diners can take $2 off any salad priced $4 or more at participating Exchange direct-operated restaurants. “Salad Wednesday” is part of the Exchange’s BE FIT initiative, designed to promote healthy lifestyles for Soldiers, Airmen, retirees and military families.
“The ‘Salad Wednesday’ discount helps military diners put some green on their plate—and keep some green in their wallet,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Sean Applegate, Exchange senior enlisted advisor. “The Exchange works to ensure Soldiers, Airmen and families have access to meals that taste good and are good for them, too.”
In addition to “Salad Wednesday” savings, diners who use their MILITARY STAR card will receive an additional 10 percent discount at Exchange restaurants.
Exchange restaurants are open to anyone – whether military, civil service, contractor or visitor – per Army Regulation 215-8 and Air Force Instruction 34-211 (I).
