DALLAS \u2013 <\/b>With the busy, and expensive, holiday shopping season upon us, Army & Air Force Exchange Service gas stations worldwide are helping to make sure that filling up doesn\u2019t empty the wallet.<\/p>\n

From Dec. 19 to Dec. 21, the MILITARY STAR\u00ae<\/sup> card is doubling the everyday 5-cents-per-gallon gas discount cardholders receive when fueling up at an Exchange gas station. On those three days, drivers paying for gas with their MILITARY STAR\u00ae <\/sup>card will receive 10 cents off per gallon.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we head into the final holiday shopping weekend, we are providing an added incentive for last minute shoppers to come on base or post to see what the Exchange has in store,\u201d said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Sean Applegate, Exchange senior enlisted adviser.\u00a0 \u201cThe savings at the pump are just the beginning of the value authorized shoppers will find at their Exchange.\u201d<\/p>\n
