CAMP ZAMA — MILITARY STAR® is bringing extra holiday cheer to military families, giving cardmembers a chance to win a share of $36,000 in cash and Exchange gift cards through its ninth-annual Home for the Holidays sweepstakes.
Six grand prize winners—one from each branch of service—will each receive a $5,000 check. For the first time, an additional 12 winners, two from each branch of service, will each receive a $500 Exchange gift card.
Cardmembers will be automatically entered when they use their MILITARY STAR card twice at the Camp Zama Exchange (in-store or on ShopMyExchange.com) or participating Camp Zama Morale, Welfare and Recreation facilities and twice at the commissary between Sept. 1 to Sept. 30.
“The Home for the Holidays sweepstakes allows MILITARY STAR to help the holiday season brighter for military families, who give up so much throughout the year,” said Camp Zama Exchange General Manager, Nick Cucinello. “Cardmembers can turn a routine shopping trip or outing into an opportunity that makes a real difference during the holidays.”

5 cents off every gallon of gas from Camp Zama Expresses and select Navy Exchange and Marine Corps Exchange locations.
10% off food purchases at participating Camp Zama Exchange restaurants.
Free standard shipping on ShopMyExchange.com, MyNavyExchange.com and ShopCGX.com orders.
