Senior & Not So Senior Discounts

Senior & Not So Senior Discounts

In this day and age when the price of EVERYTHING seems to be on the rise, it’s always nice to be able to get a little bit of a break.

As I was waiting in line behind an older gentleman at Wendy’s recently, I heard him ask for his senior discount. The girl at the register apologized and charged him less. When I asked the man what the discount was, he told me that seniors over age 55 …get 10% off everything on the menu, every day. (But you need to ASK for your senior discount.)

This incident prompted me to do some research, and I came across a list of restaurants, supermarkets, department stores, travel deals and other types of offers giving various senior discounts with different age requirements. I was actually surprised to see how many there are and how some of them start at the young age of 50.

This list may not only be useful for you, but for your friends and family too.

*Deals and senior discounts change all the time so please double check with the merchant

Make it a great day!

Dunkin Donuts gives free coffee to people over 55. If you’re paying for a cup every day, you might want to start getting it for FREE.

YOU must ASK for your discount!
