I was there when Guam opened up. It had to be around 1994 sometime. Maybe 95. At that time, it was the largest Kmart in the world, don't know about now. I know when Kmart opened up, it virtually lowered the prices on Guam significantly and even compared to prices on base. (Military bases on Guam was always the cheapest for U.S. goods.) The Little Ceasars in Guam inside Kmart had sandwiches, spaghetti and meatballs, pigs on a blanket, pizza, crazy bread, fountain drinks, ICEES, I don't see all of those in the states anywhere. It hadn't changed in 13 years since I was last there. I used to fly down from Saipan and go shopping in Kmart, and even bring back a case of beer. Only like 11 bucks for a case, whereas on Saipan, beer had gone up significantly because the government taxed the heck out of beer. It was over 20 bucks a case there 15 years ago. I had the luck of flying free on standby therefore, I could make runs to Guam, and usually to Kmart to buy up some things I couldn't get in Saipan. When I was there a few days ago, I was talking to a retired Coast Guard guy at Little Ceasars. He was really enjoying his retirement on Guam, best kept secret in the Pacific. Cheaper than Hawaii, and closer to the Orient. Land is actually affordable on Guam. Of course, retired military can shop on bases too, easy transition than to come back to the states in the cold weather and be an average "Joe" here when used to warmer climates and be amongst their buddies. Personally, I wouldn't want to retire on Guam, however, I don't wish to retire at IAH either. But a couple of years on Guam is do-able if I had to. Still very pretty waters there and lots of fun in Tumon bay area.
