Times like this...I'm fucking glad I live off base and dont have to pay rent in Yen. My troop is paying $150 more out of pocket due to the shitty exchange rate and takes the military 2-3 months to adjust the rate to make up for the exchange rate. I love getting the extra COLA but shit, it still sucks. Its a bad sign when I'm starting to appreciate food on base than eating out off base.
Community Bank rate is 79y to $1. Offbase exchange rate is not much better at 79.80.
PS: Didnt realize Macaroni Grill at Camp Foster was actually good. Alot better than the ones in the states...
