I decided today to investigate what possible discounts my AARP membership would afford me if I had chosen to accept the offer made to me yesterday on my 40th birthday.
Reviewing their website, this is a small sampling of the discounts:
1. Avis truck rental: Call me crazy, but would anyone want an elderly person driving a big box truck.
2. Walgreens: OK, must be really sick and need a lot of prescriptions. Or viagra for the nursing homes.
3. 20% of broadway musicals: Even if i lived close enough to a city that offered them, I would shot myself before taking in a show.
4. 20% of Disney: Now we are talking. Wait……. No just the disneystore.com. I guess we are to old and sick to ride anything in the parks. I guess it is just shopping to buy crap for the grandkids that never visit you in the nursing homes.
5. Gold’s gym/curves discount: I do not go there now when I should. Why would I change my mind later in life.
6. Discount at Dunkin donuts: Now we are talking. This is what I will call my social security since the one now will not be solvent.
So, what will I do? Apply or shred. SHRED baby.
Later……………….
