Old people and Halloween



She’s too sexy for her shawl,
Too sexy for her shawl,
I hope she doesn’t fall!
One of the many perks that come with being an elderly person is Seniors Day. Once a month many businesses give away freebies and discounts. It’s not because the senior citizen market is lucrative or anything like. In fact it’s quite the opposite. Seniors spend very little money, take up seating that would otherwise be used for the spending public, and bog down employees with their long-winded stories of days gone by.
So why would any establishment want to have a seniors day? Public relations. Being nice to old people makes them look like good guys. That’s right…the only reason they do it is to appear to be good members of the community .
Seniors know this, and take full advantage. In fact they play it for all it’s worth. If those stupid merchants want to look like good guys they’ll have to pay the price in coupons and free stuff.
