Disclaimer: not sponsored or affiliated; I just wanted to share the savings options.
With the rising costs of living, I'm unsure how regular Americans are covering their bills. I write about NYC a lot, and I'm shocked that New Yorkers are still able to reside in this expensive city. While some might be doing well, it was recently shared that half of the city's population lacks income to pay for basic expenses. How do people make it work? I have no clue.
I'm always on a hunt for ways to save, especially in this economy. Today, I learned that one of the large pharma companies Walgreens offers a 20% discount to seniors. I'm not saying you should choose Walgreens over other retailers, but if you have one near you and you shop there anyway, you may want to consider taking advantage of their special senior days, where a 20% discount is applicable.
This discount doesn't work every day, meaning you'd have to check for the senior discount days. Having said that, they have those quite often, almost every week. The discount days are posted online on their page. For example, as of right now, the closest in-store discount day is April 2nd, while online discount days are from March 31st to April 6th. If you end up taking advantage of this offer, consider checking their rewards program, as you may save money that way, too. As I said, I'm not promoting this particular corporation, but if you're an existing customer who didn't know about this - now you do.
Is 20% a lot? It may mean nothing to you but a lot to others.
