A geezer keeps telling me going to the movies before 12 noon is cheaper than the senior discount. But who wants to go to the movies in the morning? You have to set your alarm clock?
I asked for and got the “fat, dumb, and ugly discount.”
Happy birthday?
Knock yourself out. I’ll take your discount as well as mine.
When you were a kid in a restaurant, did you resent getting the “child’s portion?”
and, did everybody get their senior pass for the national parks before the prices went up to $80????
I have trouble finding a $20 bill in my wallet.
I’ll take every discount I can get.
I just bought a 2,000 dollar wood splitter, got my 10% senior discount and that paid for the delivery (87 miles one way), the wheels on the splitter are only rated for 45 miles per hour.
Then I whipped out my VA identification for my other 10% Veterans Discount.
That paid for my wife and I to have lunch and a visit to the bookstore.
I recommend you take the discount and pass forward the sum total of all your discounts to a person in need or a charity of your choice.

I wasn’t taken to restaurants when I was a child. Maybe something take-out once in a while and I ate what my parents got me. The first sit-down restaurant I ever went to with my parents was when I was in my senior year at high school.
Senior discount? Hell yes!
Too much of the product before the post?
I can eat at 4:00pm and then eat again at 6:00pm !!!
I don’t want to be thought of as a senior citizen but I will
take the discount.
Yep. I’m not at the senior level yet, but I use the 10% military discount all the time.
I’d agree BUT lift full price lift tickets go from 95 to 35 at A Basin when you get 70. 60-69 is just a 10 discount.
Of course, nobody ever buys a ticket full price. I hope the discounted tickets are comparable.
Integrity and self respect

And so would every one else.
That's OK, you're already "thinked of" as a senior citizen anyway, even if you don't take the discount!
I found the $50 and one $100 bill in two different large shopping center parking lots. I had no idea from which store the losing party may have come from and they may have blown around in the breeze.
The second $100 was weird. I was getting in my car at a convenience store and a piece of paper blew across a field (no building on the other side, just trees) and right up to my foot. It was the bill. Absolutely bizarre.
I skied A Basin back in the 70s and 80s. Lift tickets were $15 in the 70s and about $30 in the 80s. Now I would have to take out a second mortgage to afford a lift ticket.
