The Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) announced the November extension in a news release distributed today.

Take advantage of sales flyer’s limited-time deals to stock up for daily meals, game-party menus and family gatherings.

Commissary patrons looking to save time, but add tasty food to their meal plans, will soon see a new line of Freedom’s Choice Fresh soups, single-serve bowls and more to their stores’ prepared foods assortment. The new prepared meals are arriving in phases to stateside commissaries and will be attached to the stores’ deli-bakery section.
