Many seniors are looking for ways to reduce their monthly expenses. Thankfully, we live in a world with countless senior discounts available that can significantly alleviate the financial strain felt by many individuals over the age of 60. Find out where you can get deals as a senior around the Mesa, Apache Junction, Scottsdale, Fountain Hills, and Cave Creek areas that Senior Helpers Mesa proudly serves.
Fast Food
Many fast-food restaurants are keeping up with the trend of offering discounts or freebies for seniors. For example, participating Arby's are offering 10% off to seniors, while some Burger Kings offer 10% off if you are at least 60, plus additional discounts on coffee and soft drinks. Other fast food places, like Dairy Queen and McDonald's, also have been known to offer senior discounts. Since deals vary by location, always check with your local fast food place to ensure they offer the discount.
Casual Dining
A few casual dining restaurants offer sizable discounts in 2023 as well. Outback Steakhouse gives guests 10% off their meals if they are senior and AARP members. At Denny's, AARP members can get 15% off. Denny's also offers a discounted senior menu filled with delicious options.
Movie Theaters
Going to the movies doesn't always have to be expensive since seniors can take advantage of discounted tickets at movie theaters. AMC Theatres offers discounted tickets for seniors "all day, every day!" If you want to go with family members, consider going on a discounted Tuesday or before 4 pm so that they can get around 30% off their ticket as well.
