New to shopping at this aafes-px/main exchange. My husband and I have been thoroughly impressed with the selections, sales and prices. All of the staff members have been exceptionally pleasant, professional and most helpful. The stores are very clean and orderly. We truly appreciate the accessible entrance, bathrooms and the complementary mobility shopping scooters available at the front entrance. We highly recommend this establishment and appreciate all the hard work from all of the employees. Upon leaving tonight, there was a large raccoon that appeared to have just left near one of the trash cans near the front entrance, and walked into the parking lot. Most likely just hungry and looking for food. read more

Came here with Chooksty because it was her first time to visit on base, and she liked how it was so much like a civilian department store...but better without tax fees on purchases! She liked the perfume stands because lots of different samples that she has not yet tried from different lines and brands. Chooksty also liked that the elite pillow "purple" was there so she could try because she been meaning to buy it...only ever saw it online, so she was so impressed by the variety of choices at the PX. She said that she would visit again, especially if she had a CAC ID because it is mandatory before you can scan your items to then pay for read more

I am a veteran with 24 years of active service. My Star Card account, my oldest credit account, was closed within six months of my retirement without prior notification. Building a good credit history is one of the most important things for anyone but now my oldest account has been closed due to negligence from AAFES staff. I called the account department and the rep said there was no phone number only and email address to submit a complain, and if I wanted to open another Start Card account I would need to wait 90 days because my original account is now closed and it cannot be reopen.

This PX is awesome especially if you come from a smaller base or a Tradoc base. Love coming here

Of all the Post Exchanges I have been to, the one in Fort Lewis is the best by far. Fort Sill, Fort Sam Houston, Fort Knox, and Fort Lee all have their own takes on the Big PX, but Fort Lewis just curb stomps them all and utterly destroys the competition. I would give second place to Fort Sam Houston, but even that place has a far inferior PX to Fort Lewis. This Post Exchange is spacious, clean, and has everything within reason that you would need while living at JBLM. Whatever they have, you can rest assured that they also probably have large quantities of it and won't run out any time soon. I took a moment to browse their electronics section and it's on par with what civilian electronics stores have to offer. Everything like clothing, cosmetics, snacks, appliances, etc. are available here for you to purchase without the addition of sales tax. If you tend to spend a lot of money, this may be a welcome feature for you. I just love how there's a military version of Target on base. Not that you can't go to the Target in Lakewood, but the PX is in a central location in JBLM and is one of the coolest things about the whole place. read more

*For the hair salon* Went in on a Sunday morning. Can't remember the stylists name? Molly maybe? She cut my hair great. I kept telling her shorter but she insisted on longer. I still wanted it a bit shorter but what ever. What I don't get is how badly she styled it with mousse and hairspray and more mousse and more hair spray. What she did is to the picture on the right. I went home to style and couldn't even run my fingers through my hair. I told her how I don't use much product in my hair ever too. And on the right is what I did what I got home. I don't understand how horribly a cosmetologist could style a clients hair like that. It didn't accentuate the cut at all. read more

AAFES-PX - What I did when I got home to the left and what she did to the right - Department Stores Near Me - Fort Lewis, Washington

This AAFES location has a main store, food court, optical center, florist, and various kiosks. The main store is set up like a department store, so there's a little bit of everything. The electronics department usually stocks the latest cds and dvds, although the selection is somewhat limited compared to Best Buy or Walmart. When shopping recently for laptops, I was a little disappointed with the selection. There weren't a lot of models to choose from, so I wasn't able to find what I was looking for without going elsewhere. I like that the main store carries a lot of brand name clothing such as Under Armour, Billabong, Quiksilver, North Face, and Columbia plus the fragrance department carries Chanel, Clinique, and Estee Lauder among many others. The perk to shopping at the Exchange is there is no sales tax! The food court has various eateries to choose from: Robin Hood, Anthony's Pizza, Taco John's, Cinnabon, Charley's Grilled Subs, and Manchu Wok. There is also a sushi place and a grill outside the main entrance. The food court is a great place to grab a quick bite while shopping or on your lunch break, but it gets really busy during the weekday lunch rush. Plan accordingly! Like all AAFES locations, a valid military ID is required to shop at the main store but not at the food court or other concessions. read more

HELP SAVE GOOD JOBS AT JBLM! The barbers who serve many of the men and women of the Armed Services at JBLM once made a decent wage and benefits, which they fought for and received over the years. Now Sammi Ko, the new vendors owner for the barbers shops, wants to cut the barbers' income by lowering the commission percentage they receive for every haircut! All while Sammi Ko cries of poverty, he is spending money to equip and buy products for many other barbershops here and across the nation. Email Aracely Martinez at martinezar@aafes.com and ask her to tell Sammi: Save Good Jobs at JBLM! read more

Decent PX. In need of a make-over though. The restrooms in the back of the store are always gross. Most always tidy, and they always have great book signings too. read more

This review is for the barber shop portion only Jenni cut my hair I asked for a number 1 on the side then fade to skin on the side. She barely took off any hair then she showed the mirror then she said don't ask for anything else this is as good as you get I don't cut black people hair. Worst customer service I ever experienced ill pay the few extra bucks and get my hair cut off base read more

Even under remodeling, this PX is a well-stocked, well-oiled machine. I came in today to buy a white button-down shirt, a bow tie, and some safety pins. They had an ample selection of each. I asked two associates for directions. They told me precisely where I needed to go. Very impressed with my visit. read more

Cool place to shop and eat. Especially if you don't wanna travel too far off post and deal with the nightmarish traffic. The manchu wok, taco john's and the turkish kebabs are usually on point. read more

Compared to most of the PX's I have been to, I would have to say that is by far the biggest one. It has everything you could want. The food court has various options and the smaller stores and kiosks give you a nice variety as well. Its very clean and the staff are always ready to help you answer any questions you have. read more

Best Exchange in Northern Washington that I have found so far. Lots of variety. Best prices.

Good PX, several different restaurants an the usual clothes/make up/food selections. Electronics section is one of the better ones I've seen in a PX but the furniture is inconveniently located in another building. Hours are 0900 to 2130 daily. Not sure why that isn't really posted anywhere on the Internet, but there it is. read more

The Exchange is always a hoot to go in just be patient and enjoy.

This px has got a great selection of all the necessities... Clothes, hygiene items, make up, etc. it has a Clinique counter along with other high end beauty products- a great selection in fragrance! And high end bags like Coach and Michael Kors. They also have beer/alcohol. Food court has quite a few selections. Over all it's a nice place to shop! read more

Pretty nice PX and food court. :)

It's a good PX. Can't complain...can't shop there anymore since I'm not in the service or a overseas contractor with benefits but it was good to go with my mom and check things out again. read more

They have all the nice stuff but I don't like the layout of the entire building and the layout of the px itself. It just doesn't flow well. The PX in Ft Carson and Schofield Barracks has a great layout. They also had a Starbucks inside :) read more

If you've ever been to a px, you've been to this one. It's awesome and has a bunch of cool stuff. They display their products in every department very well. Love the gun selection here. read more
