On Senior Discounts

Black Maple


My good friend S is very frugal and who doesn't like to save money. We were having coffee in McDonald's the other morning and she got to wondering what exactly is the senior discount at McDonald's and at what age does it start. So I googled and came upon this website for frugal living in Canada called Mrs January. It has a lot of interesting tips, such as 'what to buy in September'. I was able to tell S that the senior discount at McDonald's in Canada starts at age 60, which means you can get a senior's large coffee for 85 cents! It doesn't work with combo meals of course. Here's what the site says about senior discounts in Canada.

It's good that you can get senior discounts. Nothing like that here, except for a few museums who offer reduced prices for seniors. Hugs, Valerie

Hello, greetings and good wishes.

You are lucky in Canada that you can get senior discount. Here in India there is no such thing. To day I was discussing in my whatsapp about social security in western countries and I was told western countries have excellent security.

Best wishes

I know I qualify for a couple of senior discounts, but I never remember to ask for them.

There are senior discounts here in Hawaii. We like to go to the movie theater on Tuesdays when seniors pay for tickets and popcorn at a discount. Fun getting old.

I didn't know even McDonalds had a senior discount. Maybe it's just a Canadian thing? You guys are super nice of course.

Our KFC here, offers FREE coffee and the grannies go for it big time. Smart thing to do, gets them in the door.

All ages get the free coffee, but the grannies really fancy it the most.
