Well stocked and very diverse in their product line & inventory. They carry what most Post Exchanges carry in terms of snacks, drinks, toys, home goods, electronics, and clothing, but the reason why the fort Jackson one stands out is the additional kiosks that offer other brand names like Michael Kors, more variety of sunglasses from The Sunglass Hut, and for women more options for make up brands. Great line of diverse products at unbeatable prices and tax free! This PX is certainly bigger than most, but their food court is about the same. The usual Army food court with your Subway, Charley's, and Taco Bell I believe. They also have other little stores like Game Stop and GNC, but they aren't tax free. Overall this PX seems fairly clean and the staff always seemed to be diligently working. Highly recommend. read more

Hard to review since the time I went, it was infested with trainees. It's hard to shop and enjoy the place during family day if this is really the only place to go with food. The options are limited to Charley's, subway, Qdoba, Arby's. Slim pickings and nothing is worth standing in line for over 30 mins for. The shopping is a typical PX. There's a few shops but nothing extraordinary. Carpets and rugs, random trinkets, GNC. read more

Overall review. The main store is fine, no complaints. The food court is the worst I've ever seen. You're better off driving off post, getting food, and coming back through the gate. Sadly you'll get it done quicker. The barber shop is a joke. It opens at 10 on Sunday, but you'll have employees casually strolling in well past opening time while the chairs are packed. Don't know who manages it, and who they choose to hire, but a person or two needs to be replaced. read more

Tiny PX, extremely underwhelming. Easy to find, right through the front gate to the left. Minimal food options in the food court. You can't escape trainees. Never an issue with parking. read more

Mid to large sized Post Exchange(PX). Serves the largest Basic Combat Training/Boot Camp in the Army. Hits/Positives: 1. Fully stocked. Got the items I needed. They even sell guns and accessories. Something I'm not used to on Navy bases. 2. Customers Service- Friendly, happy and standing by to assist. It is a fairly large PX. It's nice to be greeted and asked if I need help. 3. Food Court- Boston Market. Those pot pies kept me happy! 4. Tax Free. 5. Large parking lot. Miss/need improvement: 1. They have about 8 registers but only have 2 or sometimes 3 open. You end up spending more time waiting to pay than shopping. 2. Food Court-Arby's/BK & Taco Bell closes an hour early. Disappointed getting there at 1855 and they closed off the lines. Boston Market and Charley's are open till 2000. read more

Great shopping and food. I love the size and the lay out of the PX. The lay out can be compared to the Fort Gordon PX. The buyers are obviously in tune to the area clientele. I thought that their choice in women clothing, lingerie and toddler section were stylish. However I was not pleased with the shoe selections. The shoes were basic and boring and offered minimal in the way of children. I thought the purse and perfume selections were plentiful. The kiosk stations located in the lobby offer a variety of unique gift giving ideas. Each kiosk representative greeted us with a warm welcoming invitation to browse. The installation has quick access to the freeway and surrounding area. read more

Fort Jackson Post Exchange - Department Stores Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Like all other military Exchanges, everything is zero tax. As a Post eXchange on the larger side, the Fort Jackson main Exchange has just about everything you're looking for, on-hand. The gauntlet of restaurants, including Taco Bell, Burger King, Charley's, Anthony's Pizza, Manchu Wok, and Cinnabon, are flanked by a Game Stop, GNC, barber shop, salon, and a smorgasboard of kiosks. The store itself is complete with an electronics department and suitable gun store. Cleanliness and atmoshphere is on par with a Walmart, but only seldom can you not find what you're looking for. It's worth checking out nonetheless. read more

Fort Jackson Post Exchange - Department Stores Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

A very well stocked PX to the point of being crowded. Add people and it can be difficult to shop. The main building is the main show with just about everything a department store would carry, but included firearms and ammo for sale along with a pretty extensive outdoor equipment and gear area. Vendor carts with lots of attractive macho items popular with the post teenagers who constitute the majority of military bases. And there is a food court of franchises. Lots of parking and the employees are courteous and helpful, just that there are not a lot of them out on the floor. read more

My first time visiting this PX was on family day almost 11 years ago, and it looks exactly the same today as it did then. It's a pretty nice PX with a decent layout, good selections (especially in men's clothing), and friendly staff. I purchased some perfume as a gift, and by the time I made it to my truck I realized it was the wrong one. I went back inside to return it with no hassle, and the cashier even joked with me about the situation. read more

Great clothing & shoe selection; they also have a big electronic section. They have fun themed sections near the holidays. Staff is helpful. Good selection of Army themed presents in the back right corner of store. read more

Customer service is always a hassle and Tara was rude when I tried to do a return urgghh! She assumed I wore the merchandise. And don't try to be in and out during peak hours on the weekend with all the trainees. read more

Well stocked, fairly clean, and wide selection in food court. Best time to shop is seasonal sales. During that time is always a good buy. Ft Benning had a much larger facility, but this is big. read more

The store is always clean, bathroom, and parking lot. The food court is pretty good. I like Charley's. The prices are decent.

This is by far the most ghetto PX ever. The clothing selection is absolutely terrible. during the week it gets just over-packed with family members and boots just graduating from boot camp. On the weekends, it is just packed full of recruits. Bring some good hand sanitizer with you. No parking and to crowded to eat or shop. I would say the barber shop is decent if you get there first thing in the morning to beat the crowd. The barbers are good but holy hell, the prices are expensive for an on-base barber shop. The food court is also ghetto. I ordered a breakfast sandwich at the PX Burger King one morning and the lady threw it in the microwave to heat it up. She nuked this sandwich so much that it shriveled into a little burnt, wrinkled lump that was too hard to bite through. Oh, and then I had an upset stomach like an hour later. Also, I was about to buy a coffee grinder in the PX, but I decided to go to Walmart instead... good decision because the coffee grinder was a couple dollars less in Walmart. read more
