My dad was carded last year and he's in his mid-sixties. The grocery store said it was "policy". They have to card EVERYONE. Needless to say he wasn't happy with their "policy".
Kind of funny though...my dad getting carded.
I was
55 last time I got carded buying cigarettes...my
youngest son was with me, he just shook his head and laughed! [At that time, he was 30!]
I'm 61 now.
