ROTFLMAO!
I just turned 55, myself.
I really enjoyed that tale.
In Texas you get a “Vetran” identifier on your license by providing your DD214 when you apply. Lowe’s accepts this for their 10% discount.
Just damn ....
Don’t forget senior coke at Wendy’s. All you have to say when you order is senior coke and its free.
Well,
you do remember the sequence of events
,the highlights at least.

I think there's a lot of inaccuracies in the list, so I'd take it with a grain of sale. Kohl's, for example, offers a 15% discount to seniors - 55 and older - on Wednesdays. That is according to the Kohl's website. The list in this article inaccurately states Kohl's offers a 15% discount every day to those 60+.
Didn’t think Banana Republic would even let anybody in over 35.
The whole thing smacks of Jim Crow to me.
Businesses are always looking for ways to increase sales. That's how they succeed. Sales, coupons, free samples, senior discounts are all attempts to increase the bottom line. In my effort to be a financially responsible consumer, I gladly patronize these businesses. The stores are happy, I'm happy, everybody wins.
Since I’m not a retiree can I even get one of those?

Another money saver is the early bird special.
They give you a tenderloin, a salad and a baked potato, for four-ninety-five. You know what that cost you after six?
Our parents made such a big deal over senior discounts that we don’t even bother.
When did you first notice....when the kid at the deli counter stopped calling you *miss* and called you *ma’am*?....that was the turning point for me...I knew I was getting old[er].
The doctor said, "Well, I'm sure that helps, but there's got to be more to it. How old was your dad when he died?"
The old timer said, "Who said my dad's dead?"
The doctor said, "You mean you're 80 years old and your dad's still alive? How old is he?"
The old timer said, "He's 100 yrs old and, in fact, he hunted turkey with me this morning, and that's why he's still alive... he's a turkey hunter."
The doctor said, "Well, that's great, but I'm sure there's more to it. How about your dad's dad? How old was he when he died?"
The old timer said, "Who said my grandpa's dead?"
The doctor said, "You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's still living! How old is he?"
The old timer said, "He's 118 yrs old." The doctor was getting frustrated at this point and said, "I guess he went turkey hunting with you this morning too?"
The old timer said, "No... Grandpa couldn't go this morning because he got married."
The Doctor said in amazement, "Got married!! Why would a 118-year-old guy want to get married?" The old timer said, "Who said he wanted to?"
Thanks, that is a keeper
:)
In the fwiw dept, I have harvested many wild turkey...and not just the one in the bottle.

When my mom was about 60, she made a fake ID to get the 65+ discount at a ski resort. It worked.
