DALLAS – As the time for back-to-school shopping approaches, military shoppers can start crossing things off their school supplies lists with $5,000 in gift cards from the Army & Air Force Exchange Service, Hershey and Mars.
From July 22 to Aug. 18, authorized shoppers worldwide can enter the Hershey & Mars Back to School Sweepstakes for the chance to win one of 10 $500 Exchange gift cards.
“Back-to-school shopping can be as stressful as it is fun,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Sean Applegate, the Exchange’s senior enlisted advisor. “These Exchange gift cards will help students start the school year off with everything they need to succeed.”
