I Guess I'll Be Grateful...

I don't know whether to be insulted or thrilled.
I love magazines, and have been a subscriber to this one
for many, many years.
I let the subscription slide on this accidently,
so this is what I receive in the mail.
(Click image to inlarge)

A huge "Senior Citizen" discount.
 So I guess being over 55 does have some perks!
Nothing like someone else's random opinion of your age,
 making you feel "FABULOUS"!
BTW, that is NOT my photo!
Have a good weekend, even if you're Over the Hill.

  6. I am still laughing.

    We are all in this together.

    I have been buying senior coffee.

    Geez...what next?

    Oh well, it takes being this age to really get life, right?

  7. They obviously have you confused with someone who is a senior in high school! I'm sure that's what they meant! Too cute, smarty pants.

  8. It says senior rate, not senior citizen. School recently started and I'm sure they thought you were in your final year of college or something. That's your discount for completing your freshmen through junior years. Class of 2010. Yeah, I'm sure that's it.

  11. I know how you feel. I was shopping the other day and the girl at the register asked if I had a senior discount card. I think I gasped aloud! But I am 54 after all.

  12. Don't you just love it?? Don't forget all the AARP stuff that is showing up. I turned 55 in March. AND then it starts.....So let's just take the discount. Age has it's merits. How 55 looked old when it was are parents, must be all the anti aging stuff they put in the creams.
    Hugs,
    Donna

  18. Can we get this deal if we are not 55 or do they think only those over 55 are forgetful?
    What is up with Southern Living?
    I guess it pays to forget to send in your subscription on time.
