We updated this page on Tuesday, September 8 Please note, we sometimes get conflicting information from store employees about their available services and accommodations for seniors. In addition, many local stores and business have made several changes to their hours and offerings during the past few months. And on top of that, their websites don’t always keep up with their latest changes. So for all these reasons we advise you to call the store or business to check with them if you wish to use their posted services.
If you have a tip or update for us, please let us know. Also tell us about your experience with any of the special senior services. We are updating information here as we receive it. You can use our simple Contact form to reach us — open the Contact form here.
