Kroger discontinued one of the only senior grocery discounts offered in Texas http://bizbeatblog.dallasnews.com/2016/02/should-senior-get-discounts-at-the-grocery-store-kroger-discontinues-one-of-few-offered-in-texas.html/
Apparently they haven’t cut it off for folks that were already in the system, but as usual, those of us in the back half of the baby boom miss out.
Interesting. Maybe there are just too many of you becoming eligible. Just shopped there yesterday and it still processed my 10% off Kroger brands. Because of the discount, given a choice of brands for an item I always buy Kroger. Did notice that many of their major savings kick in if you have their card and buy 5 of an item. They are the only store I know of that ever offered this discount.
Friend has a twenty-something college student granddaughter who constantly rails about the issue of senior discounts because “old people have all that money they will never live long enough to spend” so she thinks seniors should pay more. She is also strongly in support of Bernie, in spite of her grandmother’s teachings over the years.
