Many discounts start earlier than you think. A by-age guide to senior savings, plus the benefit programs retirees often miss.

Discounts for Everyone
Senior, military, student, teacher, low-income and more — discounts you may already qualify for.
Some of the easiest savings come from simply asking, “Do you offer a discount?” Seniors, veterans, students, teachers, first responders, caregivers and people on assistance programs often qualify for lower prices — but they’re rarely advertised.
Discounts change often and vary by location, so always confirm current terms before you buy.

How to never miss a discount
- Just ask — at checkout, on the phone and in online chats. The worst answer is no.
- Look for a “discounts” or “military/senior” link in the footer of store websites.
- Carry the ID you need: military ID, Medicare card, student ID or EBT card.
- Compare the discount to the regular sale price — sometimes the sale is better.
- Check whether the discount is only on certain days or can’t be combined with other offers.
