Army and Air Force Exchange to Salute Those ‘Still Serving’
DALLAS – As part of its annual “Still Serving” weekend, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service will salute former Soldiers and Airmen by offering unique specials and events at Exchanges worldwide September 24-26.
“Still Serving” sales and benefits information is arriving in the mailboxes of approximately 700,000 Army and Air Force retirees. The flyer offers exclusive savings on a wide variety of products including 25 percent off men’s adidas apparel, Nike caps and accessories, Hanes women intimate apparel, Rosetti handbags and Rolfs belts, $50 off any in-stock Toshiba notebook and several food court meal deals.
“At approximately 2.3 million, retirees account for 26 percent of the Exchange’s 12.3 million authorized shoppers,” said the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s Senior Enlisted Advisor Chief Master Sgt. Jeffry Helm. “The specials offered in the flyer, combined with the host of “Still Serving” events and festivities, should provide plenty of incentive for retirees to come and rediscover the value the Exchange offers.”
In addition to the savings in-store, military shoppers will find details on a “Salute to Your Service” sweepstakes at www.shopmyexchange.com. Online giveaways during the event include an Apple 8GB iPod Touch, netbook computer, six-piece luggage set and Dyson bagless vacuum cleaner.
Authorized shoppers can learn more about activities planned for the weekend of 24 September at their nearest Exchange by calling their local store manager. Contact information for all Army and Air Force Exchanges can be found online at www.shopmyexchange.com through the “Store Locator” link.
