Where can you find Buy Stations?
MW2 DMZ Buy Stations are dotted about the map in fixed locations for you to memorize. There isn't really any consistency when considering what other map interactions Buy Stations are near, but you will often find them within a cluster, and typically near a Stronghold too.
You can have a look at where the nearest Buy Station is to your current location by opening up the Tac Map, zooming in on where you are (or where you want to go), and then looking for the shopping cart symbol. Once you've found the nearest one, all you need to do is click on it with either the left mouse button or A/X and it will be pinged, making it incredibly easy to find.

You can also sell any loot that you've picked up throughout the raid for its stated price, which is a great way to clear out your inventory and also make sure that you're getting the best value for your effort.
Any unsold loot is exchanged for XP and reduces your insured weapon cooldown upon extraction, so if you're not too bothered about that, or if you want to secure a high-value item from the shop, then definitely make your way over to a Buy Station before extracting and spend your cash.
