ADT security systems senior discount

Busch Gardens Tampa senior discount and more senior discounts in 2019. It can be a bit tricky to determine when a senior discount applies. Most establishments determine this on their own. There is no technical definition of when a senior is actually qualified. However, most organizations have a policy, and that information can apply to your case. For example, many auto insurance companies will provide a senior discount to those who are over 50. Many restaurants offer these discounts for those over the age of 55. And, some retailers begin offering discounts to those who are over the age of 60. The key here is that you do need to ask to get these savings options.

National Parks: U.S. citizens or permanent residents age 62 or over can access more than 84 million acres of land protected by the National Park Service for the rest of their lives for $80. While this isn’t quite the bargain that it used to be — prices were raised from just $10 last year — it’s still much better than the general, $80 annual pass rate, says Warren Gress, 67, of Parker, Colo., who has visited Glacier National Park, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Bryce and Zion, among others. Plus, Gress notes, the pass gets you discounted site fees if you’re staying in a federal campground. T Mobile: Customers ages 55-plus can get two lines with unlimited talk, text, and LTE data for $35/line with AutoPay. This is the best cell service discount available at the moment, says Dworsky of Consumer World. Bonus: only the primary account holder has to be 55 or older.

America’s National Park Service was established by President Woodrow Wilson in 1916, and has grown to encompass more than 400 areas across the country with more than 80 million acres in total. Entrance fees vary by park, but annual passes are also available, offering access to more than 2,000 federal recreation sites. Annual passes cost most people $80, while many military folks and 4th graders get a free annual pass. Senior citizens, meanwhile, get a discount: Those 62 or older can get an annual pass for just $20 — or a lifetime pass for $80. Read more info on Alaska Airlines senior discount.

The first Taco Bell restaurant opened in California in 1962, offering a product that customers pronounced “Tay-Kohs.” Today, there are close to 7,000 Taco Bell eateries all over the world (but mostly in the U.S.). The company reportedly offers a 5% or 10% discount, often with a free drink, to those 65 or older. It’s not necessarily available at every location, though, so ask first. Some locations may just offer seniors a free drink. Even that has value, though. If you save $1.49 with a free drink once a week at a Taco Bell, that’s $77 per year.

The Fred Meyer chain offering groceries and much more to shoppers in the Northwest, is now part of the Kroger (NYSE: KR) empire. It has more than 130 stores, which average more than 150,000 square feet and offer more than 200,000 different items. Fred Meyer also offers discounts to seniors — those 55 and older can enjoy 10% off most items in its stores. If you do a lot of shopping at Fred Meyer (and if there’s one near you, you can get most of your needed items there) and average $100 in spending each month, you can save $120 per year.
