OK, most of us. Hell, Mopar Jamie might even be 40 now (shudders, also where is that guy?)
Anyway, today I went into Walgreens to buy some makeup remover for my daughter and a few things for myself. I got to checkout and the cashier asked if I get the "senior discount" - so I asked what's up with that?
Today (in store, all week online apparently) you get 20% off (with restrictions - lots of them) if you are 55 or older. That's not bad at all!
I never thought about it but I bet there a lot of those kinds of deals out there. Not for car parts, maybe, but do you know of any good ones??
Trying to enjoy life!

LOL yes, there are a lot of discounts for seniors, some at 55, more at 60, and then you hit the magic number 62......and I am a year and a half away from that number!

Speak for yourself, Whippersnapper!
Verizon rep claims I'm eligible for a senior discount on unlimited data (which I could definitely use) but their website doesn't support that notion. I need to either sit on the phone for 2 hours or, for the ultimate old person experience, go talk to a human at the store.....

You young'uns crack me up I turned 70 - a ridiculous number, seems to me - in October. Dang, I'm way behind on claiming senior discounts...probably because I don't view myself as a senior Guess I'd better start grinding, I'm already offering frank (but tactful) opinions

Get acknowledged everywhere I go. I think with the sign of the times it’s refreshing to hear the occasional thanks. As a vet, I usually don’t wear anything that identifies me as such however it been my experience that all those who have served presents themselves as vets. As far as senior discount, take what you can get.

"what about me?" (I'm 54).
One more year, you'll be good at lots of places. But...you have to ask
