Military shoppers looking to get a head start on holiday shopping while avoiding crowds can turn to the Army & Air Force Exchange Service as they pilot 12 weeks of discounts.
Shoppers will find Black Friday prices in-store and on shopmyexchange.com each Friday through Nov. 25 on electronics, clothing, jewelry, sporting goods and more. New deals and specials will roll out every week.
The savings campaign means Exchange shoppers can enjoy Black Friday prices without having to wait until November and can take advantage of online, pick-up and curbside pick-up contactless options.
“The Exchange understands this holiday shopping will look different during the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Fort Leonard Wood Exchange General Manager Beth Pritchard. “Soldiers and military shoppers expect the value the Exchange is known to provide as well as safe, secure, sanitized environments.”
Military shoppers can find these weekly deals by picking up the sales flier at their local Exchange or by visiting shopmyexchange.com and clicking on “Weekly Ad.”
Veterans using their Exchange benefit can take advantage of the savings, too. The 2020 holiday shopping season will mark the first in-person shopping for veterans with service-connected disabilities.
Additionally, all honorably discharged veterans will find tax-free shopping and military exclusive pricing at shopmyexchange.com. Veterans can find out more at the Exchange’s Community Hub page at https://bit.ly/Vets4Life.
