senior specials??

This Bay Area geezer is trawling for senior discounts. Every Tuesday we can get 10% off at Ross stores. There’s a similar saving any day at the Pasta Shops in the East Bay. We can get special rates at selected parking lots, brake reliners, Humane Society adoptions and most obviously, public transit. I suspect there […]

freaky flora

Bay Area gardeners have suddenly developed a renewed affection for succulents, those waxy desert plants that look like Pixar designed them. One of the country’s outstanding collections, Bancroft Gardens in suitably hot Walnut Creek with 2.5 acres of the bizarre and the beautiful, has been around for 60 years. On Saturday August 6 from 10 […]

dad blast it

Who says seniors are required to slow down and locate the nearest rocking chair? If  the patriarch in your family still has the need for speed, he’s going to love taking a high velocity 30 minute joy ride across the Bay this Sunday, Father’s Day. Rocketboat flies at 50 mph out of Pier 39, making […]

it’s show time

Theater-loving seniors in the Bay Area have access to half price tickets to major productions like “Beach Blanket Babylon”, “Tales of the City” and “Teatro Zinzanni” that you thought were sold out. You can also pick up tickets for off-off Geary bizarrness like “In Search of My Clitoris”. Just go where the tourists go, to […]

giant savings

Bay Area senior ball fans on a budget should know they can do hella better than purchasing tickets at the Giants’ or A’s box offices.  Sign up for free at Goldstar and tickets that range from $16 to $32 will be around $8-$23. Goldstar doesn’t guarantee where your seats will be, but they swear they […]

senior savings. who knew?

Everyone, even oldsters with money, love saving it. We all know about senior discounts on Muni and BART. But there’s a slew of deals waiting in the Bay Area for us. Did you know seniors get 10% discounts at Banana Republic? Best Plumbing in San Rafael offers us 15% off. Southwest Airlines has pretty consistent […]

galloping discounts

$251 is the coronary inducing price for a top ticket to “Cavalia” the equine spectacular now playing near the ball park in SF. But Goldstar, the discount site has tickets starting at $78. The 9th Annual David Sedaris show at the Eureka Theater (sorry, no Sedaris) go from only $12.50. Discounts are cut even deeper for […]

BART alert

Loud applause for BART senior discounts – a $25 ticket for $9 ! But there is a hitch you should know about. If you let your card value drop below $1.50, it becomes useless. You can’t add to it. You have to save up 25 of these low value cards before they are good for […]
