What Are Senior Discounts?
Various businesses offer their senior discount programs. It’s a great way to enjoy the benefits of being a senior because you’ll get special prices and discounts on food and services. Do note that there’s no legal requirement for all businesses to offer this to their senior customers. You may sometimes need to bring proof of age to avail of an item’s discounted price for seniors.
Why I Use Senior Discounts
Never be embarrassed to ask for your discount! Why pay full price when you don’t need to? My girlfriend (who is 60 today!) said she would never ask for a senior discount because ” it would ruin her day.” I would rather have the extra money in my pocket, how about you?
Occasionally, some franchise owners do not honor corporate discounts, which can lead to frustration. My advice is to always call ahead before you head out or buy something. There are so many ways to get the best senior discounts to help stretch your dollars!

I love to print these lists out and put them in the cards, when my friends have 50th, 60th, etc. birthday parties. Usually, the host says: no gifts, or gag gifts only. This tends to bring a smile and offer a practical use. You’d be surprised at the number of Boomers who don’t know they are eligible at 55 or 60, for discounts.
I love this idea. Thanks for sharing it Cindy!
