Thanks for the list of discounts guys, but let's examine why do Seniors get discounts and the younger gereration doesn't......
We have spent years trying to make this Country better for the young ones coming up, .....Just a little thank you from the business out there.
Most Senior's no longer have jobs and the discount trully helps the pocket books........Except in Pigeon Forge, where I believe White Hair is a pre-request for employment.
Because Senior's shop more..(No Job remember) the business base relize's this and offer's discounts to keep the Old Timmers coming back.
I think even the Business Base relizes getting OLD SUCKS and feels sorry for us.
If anyone has more reasons please list them so we have a darn good reason for saying: Do Ya give discounts for the Gezzers here?
Stay Safe

The squeeking wheel gets the greese? I believe AARP had a great deal to do with all the discounts. And that also brought about all the scams the AARP seems to support in their magazine where the less intuitive of us purchase shit we can't really afford. "For pennies on the dollar" is a common phrase.
ND is correct that we do seem to spend more. I was thinking about that the other day. It's as even retirement also equates no more financial responsibility. I'm guilty. I discovered that we spend more now that we ever did. I really don't know why that is completely except that I'm able to do more and do it more often. Ironic that getting older is a learning process and being older is as well.
If you're not outraged you're not paying attention.
