    So, 50 is the new 40 and 40 is the new 30 or is it the other way around? No matter what the new and old numbers mean, those 55 and older do get some extra perks. Unfortunately the AARP mailings and the extra laugh lines will keep coming, along with conversations over lunch with friends about the latest doctor visits, but an unforeseen perk for "frugal" seniors is the "senior discount."

    If you look, you can find discounts on everything from clothing, movies, groceries and of course restaurants and travel, and according to giftcardgranny.com, you don't have to fall for the early bird specials, these discounts are for any time.

    This is a general list of some business which offer discounts as per giftcardgranny.com and other online sources. Make sure to call ahead and double check to see if your local business takes part in the discount. Carry a photo ID to prove your age.

    Nice discounts!

    Hi all,
    Vix-Did I miss you hurting your leg? I hope it feels better soon.
    Roger-That is the list of discounts that I mentioned a few weeks back. I looked everywhere but couldn't find them.
    I know I printed them out, so they have to be here somewhere. Thank you for posting them. After listening to the intro of the British Anthem, I started singing the American song. :)
    Irene-Sorry your back is still hurting, hopefully the meds will help.
    I Skyped with my son and daughter-in-law yesterday. They are planning a trip to Germany.
    I am planning a family cookout for July 3. We don't all get together often, so it will be nice to see everyone.
    Have a good evening. :)

    Hi
    It was cool when I started out walking + 7900 Steps and 1 Cent. On the inbound leg around 6200 steps I started feeling warm so I pulled off the thin long sleeve shirt and put it in my pocket for the remainder of the walk.

    Have a Great Weekend

    Hi Vix
    I have found that I can save lots of money via a few minutes with the search engines such as Google and Bing. TBH I think I like Bing.com better too.

    Hopefully the Sore leg gets better quickly. Did the Sauna Help?

    Cheers

    Hi Joanne
    I hate it when I do that and then can not find it. I put things someplace for safekeeping and then do not find them for years :)

    I wonder if Your family over there has heard the British version?

    It is hard to believe that it is almost the 4th of July already. Where has the time gone?

    Enjoy

    Hi Irene
    I was looking to see if ShopRite also offered a senior citizen discount like the in town Grocery store does where they give 10% discount on Wednesday when I found that list.

    Good Luck with Your Back

    Good morning!
    Thanks, everyone...no worries...my joints take turns acting up. It's chronic. The PT exercises help. Doing better this morning. Walked around the neighborhood.
    Irene, hope your back feels better soon.
    Jo, don't you just love Skype! :) My daughter and son-in-law just went to Germany and Italy (with 1 day in Austria). They loved it, had a great time. They said it was beautiful...they were in southern Germany, near Munich.

    Good afternoon;
    Vix-glad you are doing better. I would probably not talk to my son as often if I had to call him on the phone.
    It doesn't cost anything to use Skype. :) I think my son and daughter-in-law are going to Berlin.
    Irene-did you Dr. suggest physical therapy for your back? Sometimes just doing stretching exercises helps.
    Roger-I get a 10% discount if I buy the store brand products where I work. Every penny counts when you are on a budget. I also use coupons as often as I can.
    Nothing new going on here. It is currently raining. I think I will crash on the couch and watch some of the shows that I have recorded.
    Enjoy your evening. :)

    RogerToo Posts: 16,157 Member
    Hi Joanne
    Unless You are rich every penny counts these days.

    I do not do many coupons as I rarely run across any that I find useful. I have simple needs and tastes.

    Hopefully the store brands are tasty. I like that On Wednesday I can get the 10% on fruits and Produce as well as dairy & brand names. I do have some coupons that are good until the middle of July for cereals I do use. I am just waiting until then to buy as I do not need them currently and I do not want to have a lot of food on hand that may expire.

    Have a Great Weekend
    Roger

    Hi
    It stayed warm overnight, it was 79.9 degrees at 2AM and it was still 76 degrees and humid at 6:20 when I went out the door. The only thing that helped was staying on the shady side of the road and a intermittent breeze. 7500 steps and one Penny.

    Have a Great Sunday
    Roger

    Hi Vix
    It is a sunny day and the forecast temperatures are supposed to be lower today.

    I did turn on the AC before heading out the door to have cool house on my return as the Living room was still 77 degrees :)

    Have a Good Day

    Hi Irene
    When I looked at the Local Temperatures last night they were at 88 degrees at 10PM and had dropped to 79.9 when I checked the porch at 2AM, that is easy as I have a Alarm Clock that shows Room & Remote Temps, Humidity, day & date as well as the time. It was still warm at 6AM too. I think it cools off tonight however. I was glad I fired up the AC before leaving to walk this morning, It was not great walking weather :(

    Enjoy the Day

    Good afternoon;
    I went strawberry picking with my daughter. We got there about 10am and there were already a lot of people there.
    The strawberries were really small and there were not that many left.
    It is nice and sunny and very breezy. I can't remember when we have had this much wind. I have the windows open. :)
    I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. :)

    Good morning.
    Irene, good that you got your walk in, a little chilly here, but I opened a bunch of windows to get some fresh air into the house while it's still cool. :) Hope your back starts feeling better. PT is wonderful.
    Jo, strawberries are supposed to be excellent for your health...and fun to pick with your daughter. :) Sunny and breezy again this morning. Sat on our deck last night and it got chilly with all the wind.
    Roger, it seems to be cooling off nicely at night and in the mornings....supposed to get up to 80s today.
    Enjoy the day, everyone. :)

    Hi
    7500 steps today, so far, I walked to the Post Office on my walk and mailed my brothers stuff. Is it just a local thing that most of the mail drop boxes have disappeared from the area?
    Much cooler today than yesterday for the same time of day, It was even cool by evening yesterday after a cold front went through at some point during the day and the humidity was down nicely as a result too.

    Have a Great upcoming Week

    I would bet that all the large ones were the first to go :)

    It was breezy here yesterday too, However the wind did a good job of getting rid of the humidity and heat.

    Hi Irene
    It was nice and cool here too, A little chilly on the outbound leg so the sun felt good for that and by the time I was on the homeward bound leg it had warmed up enough to be nice out.

    Enjoy the easy day and I hope the PT helps with the back

    Hi Vix
    I wish I could open the windows on a day like today. I have been having a problem with allergies this year, many years I barely feel them, this year is worse than most so no open windows until I can get out the door with sneezing and a runny nose.

    Have a Nice Day

    Good afternoon;
    I worked this morning for a few hours. One of my co-workers in out for a few days with sciatic nerve problems.
    Then I took my car in for a recall. It was a minor computer upgrade to the passenger airbag light on the dash.
    Chilly today, I had on a jacket while I was out on my errands.
    Roger-Sorry your allergies are giving you problems.
    Irene-I hope the PT relieves your back pain soon.
    Vix-I love opening the windows and airing out the house.
    I think I am going to take a nap. I have been up since 2am.
    Enjoy the rest of the day. :)

    Good afternoon.
    It is a pretty nice day here. Warm and breezy.
    Went to pottery wheel class this morning....tried to make a lotion/oil-vinegar bottle, but the neck broke off while I was trying to shape it, so....I have another little bowl. At least I'm getting a little better bringing up the clay.
    Also went to my GP, just making sure everything's ok, and it is. :)
    Nice relaxing evening to look forward to.
    Hope you have one too. :)

    Hi
    6900 steps today and 16 cents found in two places. Today is nearly the same as yesterday and it was pleasant walking. Today as was the case Yesterday the Sun felt good when I was in the sunny spots and it was a bit cool in the shady spots with the breeze.

    Have a Great Tuesday

    Hi Joanne
    I find it funny that a computer upgrade is needed for a indicator light :)

    I like to open the house for fresh air too, However until what is causing the allergies is out of the air no can do.

    It sounds as if You had a long Day.

    Enjoy the day

    Hi Vix
    Learning by doing is the best way IMO. You can have all the teaching but until You do hands on it it is only partially successful.

    Good News from Your GP

    Thanks,Irene. I have been trying to beat my daughter-in-law. She usually has over 100,000 steps for the week.
    Vix-I am glad you got good news from your GP.
    Roger-You are ahead of me in found money this week. So far I haven't found anything. I go to Walmart for my work pants. We have to wear black pants.
    I am finally getting around to waxing the spare room floor and then I can start to put the room back together.

    The weather is pretty nice here too.
    Went to my clay co-op today, worked on 2 birdhouses and a jar to put a cork in....we'll see if that works..haha.
    I occasionally pick up clothes at Walmart too...some things are pretty decent at good prices...jeans, t-shirts, etc.

    good morning, I am loving this weather,yesterday it only made it to 80 it was really nice. Tomorrow I see the dr about a knee replacement when I went to the dr yesterday he told me he would of giving me a shot but he wants the surgeon to see how bad it is so it still hurts oh well I rather the surgeon see how swollen it is I think I am getting use to the pain it doesn't seem to bother me too much anymore. Now the dr that I am seeing actually does the knee replacement and sends you home the same day I really like that idea less chance of infection.I was pretty surprised at how nice the shorts are I got like 6 pairs I needed some that I can just pull on it will be better for me since I will be all bandage up.

    Good morning!
    Good luck with the doctor tomorrow Irene. How long does the recovery take? Will you be getting PT? It's great that it's going to get fixed at last.
    Raining this morning. All is well.
    Jo, congrats on all that walking!
    Hi Roger.

    Hi
    8500 steps so far today. Today is nearly the same weather as yesterday with a bit more warmth, walking was OK. Coffee, Post Office and Grocery Store on my walk using the backpack for the 6 Apples and 6 Navel oranges at 6 for 1.99 and one Banana as they were somewhat ripe less the 10% senior discount. Then home for NS waffles and out to Costco to spend another $120 :)

    I got around to putting the Owners manual and the attachments manual for the Singer Treadle Sewing Machine Model 27 in Sleeve Protectors and Loose Leaf folders as the pages are sort of Brittle and got the new leather belt set to the proper length. Now to learn how to sew :)

    Some days I find money, usually not that much this year. It makes me wonder why....
    I figure I am doing good to get over 70,000 steps a week :)

    Our wood floors really need refinishing instead of waxing :(

    Cheers

    The weather is pretty nice here too.
    Went to my clay co-op today, worked on 2 birdhouses and a jar to put a cork in....we'll see if that works..haha.
    I occasionally pick up clothes at Walmart too...some things are pretty decent at good prices...jeans, t-shirts, etc.

    Good morning!
    Good luck with the doctor tomorrow Irene. How long does the recovery take? Will you be getting PT? It's great that it's going to get fixed at last.
    Raining this morning. All is well.
    Jo, congrats on all that walking!
    Hi Roger.
    Have a great day. :)

    Hi Vix
    The things I mainly buy at Walmart so far are Underclothes including Pocket T-Shirts which are what I usually wear, Socks and Belts. Pants often come from Cabellas as I like their 7 Pocket Walking Pants and Walking Shorts. Lots of Pockets and decent size pockets especially compared to Jeans.

    Raining there? Hmm... It is sunny and rapidly warming up from 62 this morning into a forecast 84 as a high.

    Good Luck with the Jar

    good morning, I am loving this weather,yesterday it only made it to 80 it was really nice. Tomorrow I see the dr about a knee replacement when I went to the dr yesterday he told me he would of giving me a shot but he wants the surgeon to see how bad it is so it still hurts oh well I rather the surgeon see how swollen it is I think I am getting use to the pain it doesn't seem to bother me too much anymore. Now the dr that I am seeing actually does the knee replacement and sends you home the same day I really like that idea less chance of infection. I was pretty surprised at how nice the shorts are I got like 6 pairs I needed some that I can just pull on it will be better for me since I will be all bandage up.

    Hi Irene
    Around the house I wear the shorts with the elastic waistband.

    The Doctors reason does make sense. FWIW Nobody should have to get used to pain.

    Have a Nice Day
