The Senior’s Financial Survival Guide: 9 Proven Ways to Make Your Money Last

6. Stretch Your Dollars with Senior Discounts

One of the easiest ways to make your money go further? Ask for senior discounts everywhere.

From grocery stores and restaurants to cell phone plans and travel bookings, many companies quietly offer savings to customers over a certain age — but they don’t always advertise them.

Keep a small “discount list” on your phone or notebook. Use resources like AARP, SeniorDiscounts.com, or local community guides to stay updated.

Think of it as a game — how many times this month can you get 10% off just by asking?

Small wins add up, and they’re a great reminder that you’ve earned these perks.
