A group of local senior expats meet for breakfast regularly in Dumaguete. They swear that they cannot get a senior's discount at McDonald's close to the downtown area but they can get it at McDonald's near the Ceres bus terminal. Only in Philippines . . . . . I have not yet tried as it is not worth it to me to ask for a senior's discount in Philippines when I know it is likely to end up in stress that I do not need. Personally unless I was spending quite a bit of money I wouldn`t bother waiting for the cashier sorting it out,I have been stood behind someone getting a discount and the 10 minutes it took to save a few pesos is not worth it.Time is getting more important with each year that passes. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuya John Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Slightly off topic but about senior discounts My friend turned 60 a few months back, so when we arrived at a restaurant I suggested he try the 2 course meal at pensioner's discount. Thinking the portions would be small he was a little hesitant to order, the main course was smallish but the desert was huge! When we came out and walked back to his car he had a £80 fine for parking on a mobility space! (the only spaces left in the parking area in pouring rain late at night) He has never let me forget that discounted meal that cost him £80 extra!

Must have missed or not paid attention the English classes through the years. I had only referred to those commas as "series". After looking "Oxford comma", I now feel more educated. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
