Heartbreak ~


Tonight grandson Jake and I went to dinner here.



I don't know what made me look at the receipt.  This is what I saw.  Now, I like to save as much as the next person, but this just broke my heart.  I am afraid to find out at what age one qualifies for this discount!


Happy hump day to you.
Hugs :)
Lauren

My husband's birthday is tomorrow, he has been getting AARP junk in the mail. He is freaking out that someone will ask about his senior discount. That is so funny. I will have to show it to him. You know the adage you are only as old as you feel. Right. I think you are pretty young. :)

My Dear Hubby is 32 days older than I am ~ we're both 54 years old. He gets senior citizen discounts all the time ~ cracks me up! It's almost like a private joke amongst ourselves. I say - take the money and run!!

discount on used wool clothes at salvation army or goodwill!

I know that your 1st time is hard Lauren,but very soon you'll begin to appreciate it and yes at some point even demand it. We gotta take everything we can get!!! My Periodontist even gives a Senior discount!!!!

Lauren...something similar happened to me at Goodwill when I was just 46 years old!!! I looked up at the clerk and said..."Are you kidding me? Do I really look that old?!!" I was a already going a little grey then, but I like to think it was because the wool blazers I was buying looked like they were for "older" folks :) ...who knows, but I was devastated by it at the time. Tina...PS, Enjoy the discount, like Sherry said, we should take everything we can get!! :)

Kim said...

OMG that cracks me up! Now use that extra money for wool.....See there is always an upside!

Deb said...

Gosh - usually people will ask you if you qualify for the discount. Although it always cracks me up when they say "You don't qualify for the senor discount, I'm sure?" But you know they're telling you that you probably do, but just being nice about it. I used to get offended, but now I take advantage of saving money. My kids crack up when I do it.

Julia said...

It said Halloween Senior Discount. You're good till Halloween. Go back for more discounts. JB

Erica said...

Well, maybe they're on to something!
Growing older certainly is scary enough!

Unknown said...

LOL! That's hilarious!

Michelle~Sugar House Creations said...

Aw, lol. I don't think you quailfy yet. The comments are hilarious.

Jacqueline said...

LOL.. I am floored that they gave you a discount without you having to ask. I am old enough - and trust me I look old enough- but I always have to ask if they give a discount everywhere because they just don't give it .. they want all they can get too $$..

TheCrankyCrow said...

"1 Halloween Senior Discount"??? Perhaps anyone over trick or treating age qualified??? Just trying to help.... I was asked once...and only once....I don't think the poor clerk will ever be the same.... Smiles & Senior Hugs ~ Robin
