Ann, from Illinois
tells us that the local waste disposal service, BFI, offers a discount
to people 64 and older. (It is a great idea to check if your local service
provider offers a discount as well. There may be certain income requirements
associated with it.)
Kathy tells us that Home Depot provides a 4% discount on all gift cards for $25 or more to AARP members.
Dolly in Merrick, NY informs us that Merrick Townhouse Diner gives 10% off its lunch menu. Age requirement not specified.

SeniorDiscounts Card Program
SeniorDiscounts has offered our SeniorDiscounts Card program to our newsletter subscribers for the discounted rate of $19.95 since we first began. As of January 1, 2006, that rate will no longer be available, and will only be offered at its standard $24 rate.
There are a number
of benefits for becoming a SeniorDiscounts Card member and now is the
time to do so while the discount is still available.
Members are entitled to:
Our SeniorDiscounts Card - The SeniorDiscounts Card provides access
to our member-only discounts. The Card can also be used as a form as identification
to show other merchants you are entitled to their senior discounts
The SeniorDiscounts Guide Book - Members receive our 500+ page
SeniorDiscounts Guide Book. The Guide Book references both our exclusive
member-only discounts as well as our generally available discounts. Members
will receive a new updated Guide Book every year.
Member Newsletters - Members also receive newsletters which will
provide news and information about new discounts and programs that become
available. Newsletters will also provide updated information on exclusive
member-only discounts that can be printed and carried with the SeniorDiscounts
Guide Book.
SeniorDiscounts Card now has over 3,400 discount locations associated with its member only discounts and we are adding new discounts every week. SeniorDiscounts regularly contacts new businesses, both local and national and invites them to join our program. We have recently mailed to over 1,000 restaurants across the nation and many new businesses are signing on. We are also working with many national retail stores, hotels, cruise lines and car rental agencies to provide more substantial discounts to our members.
SeniorDiscounts Card will also be adding low cost dental, vision, prescription, and chiropractic coverage for its members by the beginning of 2006. This coverage will include options for both insurance and discounted services.
We have provided some of the discounts available to our members in this week's Senior Treasure section. You can also visit the member's area of the SeniorDiscounts Card web site for a more detailed list of the member-only discount. Click here. Of course, the most updated list of discounts can always be found by searching our web site. Click here.
We are also offering a discounted rate for purchases of more than one membership. Current members of the SeniorDiscounts Card program can purchase additional memberships for friends and family for only $15.95. This is a great opportunity to buy your family and friends a membership for Christmas. If you are not already a member, you will first need to become a member at our newsletter special $19.95 rate. Simply register on our web site using the promotional code sdcard01 during check out and we will provide you with a special promotional code to access this great price.

In driving tests, women reacted to emergency options in .56 of a second. Men scored .59 in the same tests.
The Federal Reserve printed up an extra $50 billion in small bills just in case people started hoarding money prior to the year 2000. Since nowhere near that much cash was needed, and there was a long-term storage problem, most of that money was recycled.
