The 10 Best Senior Discounts In America

WORD HAS IT that early-bird specials are going the way of VHS tapes and flip phones. But plenty of deals remain for folks who were alive during the Johnson administration.

When MONEY asked readers of its Retire With Money newsletter to recommend the best senior discounts available today, the answers flooded in. We’ve rounded up 10 choice ones that anyone over 55 (or, in some cases, 50) should know about.

Keep in mind, though, that the senior discount might not always be the best deal available, says Edgar Dworsky, founder and editor of Consumer World. “Treat it as one possible option,” he says. For those who want to get their deals on the go, the AARP Now mobile app notifies you when you’re in the vicinity of any benefits and discounts that you program into the app.

Also check with your local municipality to see what kinds of discounts might be available on public transportation, parking, property taxes, and other expenses, says Dworsky, who takes advantage of several such deals in his city of Somerville, Mass.
