UPDATE: The commissary has now marked some items as "sale items" but all they did was jack up the price and put it to the the price it originally had. Bought Chobani yogurt at $5.14 originally, now it's also on sale for $5.14... original price being $5.86.. it never was that.
Deceptive commissary and staff should be ashamed. AAFES funded commissaries destroy this place.
Below average commissary. I was stationed in Misawa before, a small base in the middle of nowhere and the prices were not only much better there but they were actually stocked most of the time. This commissary is only good for getting the few products that you can't find in a Japanese supermarket, and even those are ridiculously overpriced. Selling PREVIOUSLY FROZEN meat for the same price is as fresh meat is an absolute joke and the Yokosuka Commissary needs to get their stuff together or find management that can.

The customer service is superb and the store is kept very clean. Just recently got reorganized so locations for some things have changed. But everything is still fairly easy to find since it...
Read moreYokosuka Commissary pales in comparison to stateside commissary stores when it comes to Organic products. I have sworn off of GMO foods, High Fructose Corn Syrup, and products that contain MSG for example. A lot of people in Yokosuka want to feed their families a healthier diet, but it is tough. The Navy Exchange is carrying more Organic items now which is helpful, but I like getting my food items at the Commissary. Also, all Commissary stores stateside carry Boar's Head Deli products. Why can't we get these items here for our hard working service members? Don't they deserve the selection of products available at let's say Camp Lejeune which has an excellent...
