The Department of Defense\u2019s (DoD) 2017 policy required that tobacco retailers on military installations set tobacco product prices equal to the most common community price, including tax, but there is limited evidence confirming whether local retailers are adhering to this policy. We examined tobacco product pricing in tobacco retailers on- and off-post at the largest U.S. Army installation, Fort Liberty, and Cumberland County, North Carolina.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Aims and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Between June and August 2021, we collected data on tobacco product availability, price, and promotions from retailers on Fort Liberty (n\u2005=\u200514) and a random sample of off-post retailers within 10 miles of installation gates (n\u2005=\u200552). We calculated the mode, mean, and median price of each product, plus the difference in these prices at on- and off-post retailers. We used Welch\u2019s t-test to test differences in mean prices between on- versus off-post retailers.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The mode, mean, and median prices of cigarette packs and cartons were lower on-post than off-post (eg, $0.51\u2013$0.55 cheaper for Marlboro cigarette packs on-post). However, the mode, mean, and median prices of smokeless tobacco products and little cigars were higher on-post than off-post (eg, $0.82\u2013$0.89 more costly for Swisher Sweets 2-packs on-post).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Results highlight the need for continued enforcement to ensure compliance with the 2017 DoD policy. Comprehensive policy action to reduce tobacco price disparities on- and off-post is critical to reducing high rates of tobacco use among service members.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Implications<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Despite the implementation of the 2017 DoD pricing policy, some tobacco products remain cheaper at tobacco retailers on-post compared to off-post retailers. Our results highlight the need for greater routine surveillance to increase implementation of the policy\u2014particularly for cigarettes\u2014to reduce high rates of tobacco use among service
