One of my friends let me know they were going to do it...the employees are not very happy. I really don't understand why they need to be open 24 hours.

i dont think kadena aafes pulls in walmart type business to keep their lights on, but if so that would be cool. even extending to 2300 would be a big plus for me.

I think it's a good idea for the holiday time but year round is probably a little excessive.

That's pretty cool, but I don't see people shopping there much between 2300-0800. Honestly, I never knew Kadena had a PX.

Then again, some of the young women who go to the BX/food court/mall dress like street prostitutes, so that might be something the guys would like to see on a website... at least there wouldn't be many pictures of men dressed like women, excepting Halloween of course. :p

hmmm, ok.:rolleyes:

That still does not free me from whatever other racial types out there do. Black, white, Asian, whatever....

Stupid people, do stupid things. As for me walking around the BX at 3 am? Ain't going to happen.:thumbdown:

AAFES, has lived up to my expectations. I got my Windows 7 from Camp Foster, a "whole week" before Kadena started putting the software on the shelves.

Also have heard some stories from employees at the Kadena store, about the availability of game software that was delayed, so that the store would make a profit on game consoles that came with those games in the box.

I'm not sure if those stories are true, but it would not surprise me.:army:

For the most part however, the new BX at Kadena is an "Epic Fail". Just as I predicted.:old::grin1:

I have actually witnessed a service member buying the console that includes the game for about 400,- instead of waiting for the game to come out of the stock room. I do, however, not know if said service member returned the console and then bought a game.

Bones... You seem like a pretty cheerful guy... Are you really that cranky or you just having fun?

I really don't understand why they need to be open 24 hours.

The troops need time to pick through the left-overs after the herds of Dependapotomus' finish rampaging through the store...
I don't know which is more dangerous, shopping at the BX or going to the Running of the Bulls in Spain. :scared: About the same, I guess...

I love being on Okinawa, so I am pretty "cheerful".

On the other hand, I'm a "Cranky Kraut", bad all around shopper, who knows what he wants. In, out, gone.

People who use credit cards to make minor purchase, need to be beat up. People using "Multiple MAXED OUT" credit cards in the "Express Line" deserve "D E A T H!!!!":thumbdown:

Other than that, I'm fine.:grin1:

Or, not.:old:

Never saw what Bones meant until I waited for 5 minutes behind a Y plate at the expressway exit trying to pay Y150 with a credit card yesterday. Good job morons.

150 yen. Have it.

Bones is my hero. One of the few on here that is the same on line as he is in person. Not afraid to be "politically un-correct!". Here's a cookie!

Is that because you agree with his usual racist tirades or because it takes the attention off of you when he goes off?

Blow me tak. Just because he speaks his mind don't mean he is a racist. I'm sure there are plenty of closet racists here that would surprise you. More people would be at ease if they spoke their mind in life than at a freakin' keyboard:scratchchin:

Haha..blow me.

Hank is right though. At least Bones lets you know exactly how he views things. Much nicer than sugar coated feelings.

I think folks would be suprised at how many people would shake your hand, act pleasant, then mumble *****er when they are just out of earshot. Give me the Bones type anyday.

Bones is actually pretty racist, though. The fact that Hank doesn't see it just reaffirms my belief that Hank doesn't actually know how to read.

Kadena BX is no longer open 24 hours, according to a cashier there last week. She said they weren't making enough money to justify having a cashier on duty. Ha ha! :p
