WO1 (Join to see) AFFES POGS?

Same same as MPC in Korea? MPC was cool, cigarettes worked for a discount on some purchases on the Korean economy in 1954/55.

Howdy Sir, just to clarify, they are not technically cardboard. They are styrene measuring 23 mil.LTC Jason Mackay

To my knowledge Pogs are only redeemable at AAFES locations worldwide. The bazaar is not an AAFES affiliate. It's either cash or eagle cash card.

I don't believe vendors can accept the pogs/cardboard money. These are marked AAFES- but I would check with them to see if they accept them. They are only IOUs for overseas personnel since AAFES doesn't carry a lot of change in austere locations.
