Here are some handy Osan Tips you might not know:
*You can shop online at Gmart Korea: they deliver!
*Check with the BX about ordering AAFES items and having them shipped to the BX. They will also send things here from the Yongsan PX. Give them a call if our BX doesn't have something you need.
*To get e-mail notification that you have a package, sign up at the package window.
*Mailing packages is faster if you use cash. The post office only has one line to run cards, so if someone else is using a card in another line, you'll have to wait.
*If you're having trouble getting items shipped APO, try www.shipitapo.com or www.apobox.com.
*Try Hide My IP Address if you're unable to access websites you want to see; Korean IP addresses are blocked from many sites you might be interested. There are multiple free options for this.
*Click here for a links to online South Korean newspapers and news sources in English.
*The commissary sometimes has reduced prices on perishables on Sunday night, because it's not open on Mondays.
*There are book swap shelves at the library, one for adults and one for children.
*There is an awesome sports facility on top of the commissary parking lot: a soft-surface track, four tennis courts and a basketball court.
*There is a laundromat by the Main Gate with big washers for comforters and etc. They also have bathrooms in there if you need to go before you head-off base.
*Two options for getting your car washed: The Auto Hobby Shop has a new automated car wash, and there are business owners on bicycles around base that will come to your vehicle and clean it up.
*The O'Club has an email list that they use to send out their activities and events. Stop by to sign up.
