Great 'What discounts can I get now I'm over 60?' Hunt - 2022

The odeon cinema web site has the "silvers" web page but I cannot find any film that qualify for the tickets.  Another search stated that they had discontinued it (for price simplification reasons LOL).

Most racecourses do not have a concession price for over 60/65, although some do ( typically £5), but sometimes only on weekdays. Plus finding the info about it on the website can be challenging.
The ones that do, only seem to offer it at the gate/on the day, and not on advance tickets, so the saving is reduced

Darn & Blast....... Just about to start planning my retirement bucket list visit to every course in the country as I turn 60 next month. Was hoping to get in a bit cheaper !!, oh well, just have to hop over the fence like I used to when I was a lad !!! Err maybe not, the hopping bit may be an issue these days !

Are you aware of the Rewards for Racing website? Through using it when booking holidays and short stays, I’ve built up enough points to give me free entry to racecourses on my last half dozen visit.

I am aware of it, but thought you just got points for booking racecourse tickets online. No idea you can get points by other means.
Then again, there are so many companies with reward schemes offering points/discounts for shopping with different retailers, or booking holidays etc it would be a full time job keeping tabs on them all.

it is difficult to keep up with all these links for rewards stuff, I used to use BA estore for avios points but it was unreliable for tracking and receiving the points, so now use give as you live to donate to Dogs trust each purchase

Barnes Coaches in Swindon do give discounts if over 60
