    DALLAS – The Army & Air Force Exchange Service is turning back-to-school supply shopping into A-plus deals. Shoppers can get double the savings at the Department of War’s largest retailer during tax-free holidays in more than 15 states (https://flic.kr/p/2soHufL).

    Military shoppers in states with sales tax holidays can use their Exchange benefit to save even more, receiving an in‑store discount equal to their local sales tax rate.

    “The Exchange delivers everyday value for military families, and sales tax holidays stretch those savings even further,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Rich Martinez, the Exchange’s senior enlisted advisor. “In addition to double savings, back-to-school shoppers can enjoy the Exchange’s everyday military-exclusive pricing and tax-free savings.”

    Sales tax holidays start in Mississippi and continue in 17 states through Aug. 22. A sales tax holiday calendar can be found here (https://publicaffairs-sme.com/Community/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2026/06/The-Exchange-2026-Back-to-School-Sales-Tax-Holiday-Calendar.jpg).
