BTW, last I knew (18 mo ago) the Commissary saved you about 6%. But most of the savings were in the odd or unusual products. Doing comparative shopping with the economy would save even more. Depended too on what state you were in. Gas would run anywhere from a couple of cents per gal more to 10 cents less. Just depends on when you hit the pumps. I was 5 miles from the Fort Gas Station and rarely used it.

Lots of services on bases today are being sub contracted to major corporations. To include housing. Base housing you now pay rent. It equals your allowance but now utilities have been added to the tab as well. I don't know if it's everywhere yet as it's a fairly new program. But it's all over the DC area.
