Tax-Free Online Exchange Benefits for Veterans

Why have I included a photo of Mark Wahlberg and Marcus Luttrell? Because they teamed up a few months ago to spread the word about this great new benefit for veterans! AAFES now offers tax-free online shopping to honorably discharged veterans. This benefit was announced by DoD in January, and became effective on 11 November. Why is this such good news? Veterans who did not retire may not have access to an Exchange on base. And aside from the tax savings, prices are usually better at the Exchange. For example, the Clinique moisturizer I use is $48.00 at Sephora, but only $40.00 at the Exchange. They offer many other top brands not just in Health & Beauty, but also Apparel, Handbags & Accessories (Coach, Kate Spade & Michael Kors among others), electronics (Apple, Samsung, Xbox to name a few), Babies, Toys, Pets, Home & Appliances, Sports & Outdoors, and of course, Military. Shipping is free with a $49 purchase, making the convenience that much sweeter. This is just in time for the holidays, but good year-round and for your lifetime. Thank you for your service, and enjoy!
