Hey All,
Whether you are new to this whole world of being a military spouse or are a seasoned "veteran", you have all heard of "The Exchange" on your local base. While the Army, Marines, Air Force, and Navy all refer to them with different phrases like, "NEX" (Navy) or PX (Marines), etc they all sell the same items, such as clothing, audio and visual products, bedding, etc. While most people would automatically assume that "The Exchange" should be cheaper than any local civilian store, this is simply NOT true. While most "on base" (or "Post", for you Army) retailers will MATCH a lower price if you find a better price elsewhere, who wants to go to that effort? Always check prices. While there is no tax on purchases made at a government retailer, you may still be able to find a better price at other civilian retailers, like Walmart, Big Lots or Target. Don't be fooled.
It's Friday!
Jennifer
