DALLAS – Money is tight these days, so Exchange buyers and vendors have bundled up great product selection and pricing to better serve shoppers’ home and family needs with a new quarterly Online Shopping Guide for Autumn 2012.
Available online at shopmyexchange.com and in-store at brick and mortar Exchanges, top brands and great prices abound within the Autumn 2012 Online Shopping Guide’s 200 pages.
After checking out a vast selection of home furnishings, appliances, apparel and more, shoppers can enter for a chance to win one of three shopping sprees in the ‘Autumn 2012 Sweepstakes.’
“Entries to the sweepstakes can be submitted once every 24 hours at shopmyexchange.com from through October 2nd,” said the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s Chief of Staff Col. Thomas Ockenfels. “The grand prize winner will take home a $500 Exchange shopping spree with two runners up each receiving a $200 spree.”
Authorized shoppers can log on and enjoy free shipping offers, daily and weekly specials, plus no sales tax. Thrifty troops, and their families, can find even more savings throughout the year by joining the Exchange Online Savings Club at www.shopmyexchange.com/SavingsClub to stay informed about online savings events, exclusive coupons, and automatically be entered for a chance to win great prizes.
Prices in the all-services Autumn 2012 catalog are valid through October 16, 2012.
