Culver’s senior citizen discount and several more senior discounts today. The other activities you are involved with can offer discounts as well. You may be surprised to learn so many cost-savings options are available to you at the activities you are planning to do.
Alamo Drafthouse: Moviegoers ages 60-plus can view weekday shows before 2pm for only $6, less than half of the general admissions price of $13.75. That special low pricing applies all day on Wednesday for the chain’s Senior Day. See here for locations. Amtrak: Travelers ages 65 and over can receive a 10% discount on most rail fares on most Amtrak trains. Kathy Levine, 70, of Long Beach, N.Y. uses the discount frequently to visit her daughter and granddaughter 200 miles away. “I prefer not to drive the four hours it takes,” says Levine. “The Amtrak discount allows me to see them more often.”
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 extra details on Tractor Supply senior discount.
Kentucky Fried Chicken, now known as KFC and part of parent company Yum! Brands (NYSE: YUM), serves its fare in more than 20,000 locations in more than 125 countries. The company reportedly offers seniors aged 55 and up a free small drink when they order an entree. That might not sound like much, but if you frequent KFC and would normally buy a small drink for, say, $1.49 once a week, you’re looking at annual savings of $77. Not every location will offer a discount, though, so check first.
Wyndham Worldwide (NYSE: WYN) features more than 8,000 properties worldwide bearing brand names such as Ramada, Days Inn, Super 8, Knights Inn, Howard Johnson, Hawthorn by Wyndham, TRYP by Wyndham, Microtel by Wyndham, and Wingate by Wyndham — among many others. It offers seniors aged 60 and up a discount off of its best available rate at many participating hotels. If you’re planning a trip, look into Wyndham properties of interest and ask what discount is available.
