They might have just thought you were nice. I used to put discounts through sometimes if a customer was just a cool and respectful person

Started getting asked if I wanted the senior discount in my mid 40s. I look old, I guess.

My mom started lying about her age to get the senior discount at about age 45.

I felt the same way when I stopped getting carded for cigarettes and booze, so I quit cigarettes and booze.

Take it and save it. Now you’ll be rich when you’re actually old.

I'm stealing that quote for when elderly patrons at my restaurant complain about the temperature settings when it's 75 degrees.

It's from 30 Days of Night, said before the vampire attack. But I always think of it when my 85-year-old dad is cold and now, when I am!

Look, if it's not checked, I used to slap a discount on if I liked your attitude. As a non people person, it was like once in 18 months.

My dad was 43 when my brother Pete was born, and three years later a lady in McD's says "out with Grampy, eh?" My youngest was born when...

... I was 42 and, lo and behold, three years later a nice lady at work saw me and Colts, and says "is this your grandson?"

I'm 28 and still getting an i.d. check for sudafed. There's a bit of frustration either way.

I got carded for caffeine tabs recently. Might just be policy.

As I've cashierd before, it wasn't always you looking "old" sometimes you were just cool enough to give a discount.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Quite possible, as I am totally cool.

I once got a senior discount at Taco Bell because I was wearing a wool beret. I was 25...

The chances of her being gay AND attracted to someone 30 years her senior are much slimmer than the odds that she thought I'm old. Thank tho

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Yeah, both of those together maybe not. But when I was in retail, I met MANY very attractive women that much older than me. Anyway, YW.

Had just turned 30. Went into a club with my 26 year old friend. Immediately went to pull out my ID and the guy stopped me ->

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Said I definitely looked old enough and waved us through. Adding insult to injury, he stopped us again after a few steps and ->

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Said "No, I DO need to see HER ID though." That was almost a year ago and it's still made me feel old. Or, that I look old. ):

Omg, that happened to me when I was 30 and dating someone in their 20s. Embarrassing.

Many places the senior cards are given at 60, so 59 isn't far off...

I always ask if they have any discounts they like to claim. Then joke around about how I avoid basically telling people they look old.

My favorite local diner starts the senior menu at 55. My kids were sure to point that out to me.

55? When do you guys retire?

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

70-ish because of SS checks, though it doesn't hurt to get a part time job.
