Get discounts with these 9 retailers

Age has its perks, and a big one is discounts. Aiming to reward loyal shoppers and lure new ones, some of the nation’s retailers offer special discounts to older consumers. It’s very common

at supermarkets and has spilled over into other areas of retail. Big retailers, such as Kohl’s and Rite Aid, offer the same discounts across the entire chain. At other smaller, independent

chains, such as Goodwill, discounts can vary by store. With that in mind, here’s a list of nine retailers that reward you for getting older. ​ 1. GOODWILL LOCATIONS: Over 4,000 stores in

all 50 states and the District of Columbia AGE FOR DISCOUNT: 55 or 60, depending on store DEAL: One day a week, typically Tuesday or Wednesday, shoppers 55 and older get 15 to 25 percent

off their purchases. The deal is valid in stores and may not be offered at every location. 2. KOHL’S LOCATIONS: Over 1,100 stores in every state but Hawaii  AGE FOR DISCOUNT: 60 DEAL: On

Wednesdays, shoppers 60 and older can get a 15 percent discount on in-store purchases. Dollar-off coupons, including Kohl’s cash, will be applied before the age-specific discount.

However, other percent-off coupons can’t be combined with this deal. Also, the discount is good for one checkout per Wednesday. 3. MICHAELS LOCATIONS: Nationwide AGE FOR DISCOUNT: 55 DEAL:

Michaels Rewards members 55 and older get 10 percent off their purchase, including sale items, in stores and online. If you don’t have a Michaels Rewards account, you can still receive a

10 percent discount on in-store purchases. You may need to show a valid ID at checkout as proof of age. 4. PEP BOYS LOCATIONS: Over 900 stores in 36 states, including Alabama, Arizona,

California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Texas, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina and Pennsylvania, plus Puerto Rico AGE FOR DISCOUNT: 55 DEAL: Customers 55 and older with a valid ID get a

10 percent discount on any in-store purchase. 5. PETSMART LOCATIONS: More than 1,660 stores nationwide  AGE FOR DISCOUNT: 65 DEAL: Shoppers 65 and older who show ID can get 10 percent off

at PetSmart’s grooming salon every Tuesday. The deal may not be available at all PetSmarts, so check with your local store before heading in.
