Six of the Defense Commissary Agency's top-15 sales days of the 21 century have been the Saturday before the NFL's Super Bowl Sunday. It's not lost on DeCA officials that many football fans in the military venture to their commissary to stock up for their own "big game" events.

"You can argue that the Super Bowl is the biggest single-day sporting event for Americans," said Randy Chandler, DeCA's sales director. "Whatever event you're hosting on this year's Super Sunday, your local commissary offers the greatest savings -- including party snacks and beverage mixers."

The Super Bowl is Feb. 2, and leading up to that day, commissary shoppers can expect to see football-related manager's specials and club packs throughout the stores, offering discounts on select products for the big game. Customers are asked to check their local commissary for details on dates and times of the following promotions:

· Visit www.commissaries.com for online deals on the 'exclusive savings' page, where discounts eclipse the average savings of 30 percent or more on every day commissary products. 'Exclusive savings' gives customers access to coupons, discounts and promotions provided by DeCA's vendors and industry partners. The 'what's on sale' section has even more information about what's on sale at your local commissary.

· The Commissary Rewards Card offers more giveaways and high-value coupons to help shoppers save. Cardholders go online to select among more than 100 new coupons available this month, plus more coupons are added every two weeks. For more information, go to www.commissaries.com/rewards.

"We have everything you need for your Super Bowl party, including foods to help you eat healthier and also save even more on all your favorite name-brand products," Chandler said. "Your commissary is always there for the military and their families year-round, providing the very best savings possible."
