Most chain restaurants have senior discounts. I always ask, and often find unposted discounts.

Some motel chains have senior discounts. I have seen at least one that is tied to AARP membership, and since AARP is all-in on gun control, that is a non-starter.

Thanks to somebody mentioning it on another thread, I found out those over 50 can contribute an extra grand to their IRAs.

Nothing. Except not being around as long as the youngin's to see further degradation of the U.S..

Yeah, cheap mutha's. 50 years? Gosh I have 40 is all. I'm thinking I've pretty much given up fishing here. Unless I were to move out of this pit to some where pulling a boat in/out of town wasn't so harrowing.

Big whoop!
I'm still stewing over that. I went a lifetime while all the older folk I knew had this free, but when I finally reached that age, A day late and a dollar short, Greedy governor Brown just could not live with giving anything away for free! And o break on any tags or application fees either.
We do have a free senior permit for national parks albeit the last time we went to Yellowstone we drove on through because there was no where to camp, and dang lucky to have just barely gotten out the east side because they shut down that exit at dusk..
Yah, I do feel better now

None. Never discount a senior with his left blinker perpetually on and a bad attitude.

That's very kindly of them, thank you.

Independence Cinema has a $9.00 ticket price for seniors 65 or older that is $2.25 less than regular. But on Tuesdays the ticket is $5.00 for everyone!
