How are the prices at the NEX for soap and stuff you need to be hygienic and cleaning stuff? Are they really cheap like Walmart or way overpriced like at CVS or Walgreens? Wondering if I'll have to make a run to Walmart or Target during PIR liberty to pick up stuff.

The Nex is moderately priced. Depends on the items. You do have to realize though that shopping at the NEX is TAX FREE though.. so even though something you may think is cheaper at wal-mart, it may not be by the time you add tax. It is item specific though... DVD's.. yea buy them off base..

Don't go to Walmart or Target during PIR liberty and bring crap back. Wait the 3 days until you get to your school or ship and then go out and buy stuff.

I'll go to A-school in Great Lakes, so I thought I'd have to go right there and check in before liberty.

For 900 division after PIR we were allowed to go out for the weekend.. had to come back at night obviously.. but I don't think we were allowed to bring anything back really. We also had another week of school to catch up on after graduation. For non-900s, I'm not 100% sure but I would be surprised if they just let you leave after graduating and be done with RTC for good. I'm assuming (might be wrong) after graduating, you get your weekend off, then on monday or whenever, they hand out orders, plane tickets, etc.. then everyone heads their separate ways. If your A school is across the street then you will probably get on a bus or van and then they will shuttle you over. After you get all checked in, you may or may not be able to leave the barracks right away that first day. There is a Navy store on base so you could get pretty much all you need there.. if you wanted to leave the base, you could catch a taxi van or whatever and get a ride out in town. When I was there most people just stayed on the base. You will most likely not be able to have a car there with you while at A school.
