Electronics eligible for Back-to-School Layaway at the Yokota Exchange for limited time

Yokota Air Base – To help military families stay on budget while preparing for the school year, the Yokota Exchange is offering limited time layaway on electronics through Sept. 1.

Computers, notebooks, iPads, tablets and other electronics that support educational excellence are not usually eligible for the Army & Air Force Exchange Service layaway program, but service members and their families can enjoy the expanded program before the school year.

“There can be a lot of costs that hit all at once when preparing for the start of school,” said Yokota Exchange General Manager Andrew Defelice. “The Yokota Exchange’s layaway program is a great choice to not only manage expenses for clothes, shoes and backpacks but electronics as well.”

A $3 service fee and a 15% deposit are required to place these and other items on layaway, and the items must be picked up by Sept. 2. Shoppers can visit the Yokota Exchange Customer Service Desk for more information.
