JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash. --  Reservists from the 446th Airlift Wing are encouraged to take advantage of savings on popular grocery items at the next Commissary on-site sales taking place in Oregon.

There will be a sale in LaGrande, Ore, at the National Guard Armory, 404 12th Street, Aug. 20-22 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

On Sept. 17 and 18, a commissary sale will be in Roseburg, Ore., at the Douglas County Fairgrounds at 2110 Frear St, Exibit Bldg. 1.

Commissary on-site sales are open to Guardsmen, Reservists, retirees, active-duty servicemembers, and their dependents.

The Defense Commissary Agency has expanded its reach to Guard and Reserve members by bringing these on-site sales to military members in areas with military populations not served by a nearby commissary. Sale items include paper products, soap and cleaning products, canned goods, sodas, sport drinks, water, laundry detergents, and a variety of other products at savings of 30 percent or more.

Customers must present an appropriate Department of Defense identification card that authorizes commissary privileges in order to shop. Cash, checks, debit and credit cards are accepted for payment. The use of coupons is highly encouraged.
