The AAFES Market Basket Survey was conducted in October 2008 at nine locations in the United States. A Market Basket Survey is a snapshot in time. The Retail Industry conducts similar surveys as an industry best practice to remain competitive. In addition to the national survey, each major AAFES Exchange location conducts local price surveys monthly to ensure AAFES pricing is consistently competitive.
