The Senior Discount Guide: Payson Edition

You’d be surprised how many Payson businesses offer senior discounts — and how few people ask about them. We’ve put together a starter guide to help you save on everything from groceries to dining out.

Groceries

Safeway: Club card members 55+ save 10% on select days (check your local store for current schedule). Bashas’: Thank You card provides ongoing savings; ask about senior-specific promotions.

Dining

Many Payson restaurants offer 10-15% senior discounts — but you usually have to ask. Don’t be shy. Some national chains with locations in the area offer senior menus or discounts: Denny’s (55+), IHOP (55+), and Arby’s (55+).

Prescriptions

If you’re on Medicare, review your Part D plan during open enrollment every fall. GoodRx (goodrx.com) is a free tool that compares pharmacy prices — you might find the same medication is significantly cheaper at a different pharmacy in town.

Utilities

APS: Offers a limited-income discount program. Call 602-371-7171 to see if you qualify. Phone/Internet: Ask your provider about low-income or senior plans. Many offer discounted rates that aren’t advertised.
