Do you see yourself as a 'Pensioner'?

But being a pensioner is only one role in my life and i do not want to be defined by it. Similarly I do not want to be defined by the number of children and grandchilren I have.

Why append any descriptor to us at all?

Thank you Carlotta may I ask one more question!

How does it work for you? Do you automatically get 10% off your entire bill on Tuesdays after scanning your myWaitrose card?
I have shopped in Waitrose for decades and seem to have missed this benefit.

Nope. I’m 47 🤣

Not too many seniors discounts these days my barber now charges £15 full price is £18, my wife pays £25 but it takes an hour instead of 20 mins, hairdresser visits too.

I would also like to know about the waitrose discount. Shopped there this morning and no sign of a discount on my receipt. Perhaps I will ask at the customer service desk tomorrow as well.

I haven't got a link to share with you NotAGran I just have it on my MyWaitrose card and it's in the Ts and Cs they sent me. I've never had any problems using it and claiming whatever discounts are on offer that week.

Have you had the Waitrose discount for a while Carlotta?
I don't think it's open to new registrations but those who already had it can keep it.

Well I am a pensioner, so yes. It's not how I think of myself, but it's one facet of me in the same way as I am a driver, or a bus user, or a shopper at various supermarkets. If there are discounts on offer I'm quite happy to make use of them.

I m a pensioner in years (a young 80) I m a teenager in mentality (sometimes) quite happy to be interchangeable
Apart from my bus pass I don’t get any consessions my hairdressers doesn’t offer them and I don’t see any restaurant meals now (used to) I think the cinema is a pound off but the lack of any decent films to watch means I haven’t been for ages
I think Iceland do a pensioners Tuesday or did but I work on Tuesdays so that’s out 🤣🤣
