Special Information about local (Ft.
Lauderdale, FL) store discounts for seniors, retirees,
and the people who love them!
|
|
Like most people, I love a good bargain. One of the truly
fantastic things about getting older (for some, possibly the only
saving grace!) is the deals seniors get at companies, stores,
organizations, and websites. These folks care about seniors
and honor their lifelong contribution to society. I have arranged
them in order of the age at which point they become available -- so
as to underscore just one more reason that it's okay to get older!

the discounted fare on
Metrobus and Metrorail.

If you are
visiting the area, you may
pay the reduced bus fare of
75˘ by showing the bus
