Interesting. I'll have to keep an eye on that. Thanks!
When I was in the USCG I spent a couple of years, on and off, stationed
at USCG Training Center Governors Island, NY. I grew up in NYC (Queens)
and at the time my parents and 3 siblings still lived there. Every Thursday
night I would take the subway home, pick up my Mom's car and head back to
base. On Friday I'd go to the exchange and pick up the groceries for
the week. There would often be a stop at the base liquor store too. My dad
worked for the USDA and my mom was a teacher's aide. We were far from
wealthy and the cheaper groceries really helped.

.....for the military exchanges, which the change is for. It's not to
do vets any favors.
Q. Can I still buy Ray-Ban Air Force sunglasses (straight temples and
G7 lenses) fer $7USD? ;)

Thanks for the heads up, I'll have to check it out. I didn't see that
it said anything about local shopping, but online and beating taxes
too could be a big plus.
