Businesses trying to attract seniors have long offered age-specific discounts. For seniors on a fixed income, savings of 10%, 15% and more can have a real impact.
You’re probably already aware of some of the local discounts available to seniors, such as movie tickets, motel chains, or certain days of the week for shopping at your favorite stores. On the website http://www.TodaysSeniors.com/pages/Senior_Discounts.html, you will be able to click on the following topics to learn about discount programs available:
Auto insurance
Dental care
Diabetes supplies and sugar-free foods
Groceries
Hotels and motels
Internet access
Magazines
Rental cars
Restaurants
Warehouse clubs
Another website to check out is http://frugalliving.about.com/od/seniorcitizens/. It leads you to many sources of information about discounts, some specifically in your area, and a free newsletter about frugal living.
If your clients clip coupons, point them to The Frugal Shopper website at http://www.thefrugalshopper.com/shopping/SSI/ent.html, where they will have the opportunity to print store coupons for groceries, pet supplies, (grand)baby items and more. Even free stuff! The Frugal Shopper also points out that nearly everything goes on sale at some point in the year, and being aware of the “sale calendar” before you shop for larger items can save a great deal. For example: in August you are likely to find sales on linens and towels, bathing suits, and fresh fish and vegetables. In October, look for the best prices of the year on automobiles, fishing equipment, and candy. Go to http://www.thefrugalshopper.com/articles/seasonal.shtml for a complete list of seasonal sales.
If you’re especially interested in savings on travel, the website http://www.thirdage.com/news/articles/ALT04/05/03/10/ALT04050310-01.html offers lots of information and links to resources that will have you packing your bags in no time.
