After many disappointing trips to Target, Walmart, etc, I have finally found a place to buy 25th Joe's. I am in the U.S. Air Force, and the base exchange on Travis AFB where I am stationed has started selling 25th Joe's in the toy department. With these Joe's being sold on a military installation, they are safe from most, if not all scalpers and crooked store employees'. As far as I can tell, I am pretty much the only one who buys them. They are being sold for only $4.90 each too. Pretty good deal. I feel as though I have my own private supply source of 25th Joe's. And unlike Walmart and Target, the BX actually restocks their shelves on a regular basis.

No, military members do not pay tax on military installations.
