Consider your own unique qualities that will give you a way to save. There are many different categories that people fit in that give them an opportunity to save. When my husband turned 50 I got him an AARP card this entitled him to senior discounts. The discounts don’t stop there if you just had a baby, graduating, in the military, student or a teacher you have many savings circumstances available to you. Think about your area of interests or what specialty qualities you have and join an appropriate club that may offer club discounts. The Home Depot Garden Club gives you discounts and coupons throughout the summer. Don’t be shy when you go into a store ask them if there is any special discounts available. Don’t forget the most overlooked discount is a customer-service survey. Stores like Dick’s Sporting Goods and JCPenney print a phone number or link on the receipt to get feedback on your experience. In return for you get a coupon. Always check your receipts. Here are a few other discounts examples.

Senior Discounts:

Always ask if there is a senior discount many fast food restaurants like Wendy’s, Taco Bell, Arby’s plus many more offer a range of savings.

Join AARP for additional discounts:

Save 10% at Michaels Craft Stores on Tuesdays

Save 5% on everyday items online at Walgreens
