THE COALITION TO SAVE OUR MILITARY SHOPPING BENEFITS



Help Us Save Your Benefit So You Can Keep Saving

It’s time to step-up to save a benefit so you can step-into your stores and keep saving on thousands of name-brand American products and experience the great service that you have come to expect when you shop at your commissary and exchange.

Independent surveys consistently show that patrons save 20 to 50 percent by experiencing a great benefit offered by thousands of dedicated managers and employees—many of whom are friends and neighbors-- who have one purpose…offer great products and service to the best customers in the world—military personnel and their families.

And, by using these benefits, you demonstrate their worth to you and show policy makers that this benefit matters.

Every year, patrons save billions of dollars—a valuable addition to your paycheck. And, remember, every time you shop at these stores, and every dollar of earnings come directly back to you not only in savings but in better facilities support of the military community and a number of benevolent causes from Wounded Warriors to Fisher House to USO and a multitude of on-base and off-base military family programs.

Military Families Saved $5.6 Billion Last Year
The military resale system is a vital economic engine, generating 100,000 jobs for hardworking Americans and creating thousands of dollars in annual savings on household items for military families.

Save our Benefit is a new coalition of military families, advocacy groups, taxpayers and American industry formed to preserve and strengthen this 150-year-old benefit.

Everyone – on and off base – can be proud of what these valued programs deliver to our military and our economy and that is why we hope you will join us to Save Our Benefit.
