No, don't think that will work. Must have a state issued photo I.D, or look way over 60 years old so they won't ask. :P

OH I know what you mean---I'll be 55 next month and can't wait---the Goodwill store down the road from me has Senior Citizen day every Wednesday---I'll be going there and scouting them out each Wednesday. But you are right by the time I hit 60 they'll up it to 63 or 65. Maybe I'll get my sister n law to go with me.

I've done my homework...because my day is coming. :P

OMG I'm so busted! LOL Is that considered Senior Profiling?!!! Just check out the supermarkets on senior discount day! We're all there...with our own bags or boxes and coupons hanging out the edge of our purses! 8-)

Thanks for the reminder! Got a tight schedule the next couple days. Hope I can make it.

Im eligable but knowing Joanns nothing will be on sale or everything on sale will be marked up in price.
Watch out, they do mark up prices so sale prices look good but are not really.
The ruler I wanted was marked up to 15 dollar and was regular priced at 11.50 at my local shop. Both had coupons so the shop was cheaper.
