Army and Air Force Exchange to Salute Those \u2018Still Serving\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

DALLAS \u2013 <\/strong>As part of its annual \u201cStill Serving\u201d 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cStill Serving\u201d 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\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt approximately 2.3 million, retirees account for 26 percent of the Exchange\u2019s 12.3 million authorized shoppers,\u201d said the Army & Air Force Exchange Service\u2019s Senior Enlisted Advisor Chief Master Sgt. Jeffry Helm. \u201cThe specials offered in the flyer, combined with the host of \u201cStill Serving\u201d events and festivities, should provide plenty of incentive for retirees to come and rediscover the value the Exchange offers.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to the savings in-store, military shoppers will find details on a \u201cSalute to Your Service\u201d sweepstakes at www.shopmyexchange.com<\/a>.
