Senior Discount Participants |
Please
note the following:
|
 |
Merchants request that you show
your ID card before
the sale is rung up.
|
|
|
Restaurants request that you notify
your server before
you order that you are asking for a discount.
|
|
|
Discounts are for
cardholders only, not for their relatives, friends, or
guests.
|
|
|
Discounts do not
apply to the following: |
|
|
· cigarettes, tobacco, milk, newspapers, gasoline, and
lottery tickets;
· drinks at bars and restaurants;
· credit card purchases;
· prescriptions unless otherwise noted;
· specials or items already on sale (some stores make
exceptions).
|
|
|
Do not expect the discount to be given automatically;
you must ask for it.
|
|
|
Merchants make their own rules about when the discount
applies; some apply the discount at age 60, others require age
62, and others require age 65. |
