There’s only one good reason why I look forward to getting old….senior discounts. Did you know that some stores offer a senior discount only on specific days of the week? True enough. So I set out to find all the stores that offered this type of discount and was pleasantly surprised to find close to a dozen. From grocery stores to big box retailers, this list has you covered. I hope this list helps you shop on the right day and save some money.

None that I’m aware of.

Let me know in the comments if you’re aware of any “Friday senior discounts”.

Discounts That Vary by Location:

– Dress Barn

Dress Barn locations typically offer a 10% discount on Tuesdays or Wednesdays to those 55+. Ask about it at your local Dress Barn.

– TJ Maxx

TJ Maxx stores in Florida offer a 10% discount to seniors aged 55+ only on Mondays.

Other stores do the same, be sure to ask at your local TJ Maxx to see if they have an “unofficial” senior discount.

Many Walmart locations offer a senior discount on specific days of the week so be sure to ask an employee at your local store.

The discount is typically 8%-10% and good for shoppers over 55 years of age.

Ask the Reader: What “day specific” senior discounts did I miss? Let me know in the comments below and I’ll investigate.
