In reply to the discussion: Digital Ageism [View all]cyclonefence
(4,912 posts)and I can attest that I am denied entry to lots of stuff in my life. The most recent insult is that my grocery store now uses "digital coupons," so I, surely one of their best customers (the only things my husband and I splurge on are really, really good stuff from the grocery store)(well, that and my Red Breast whiskey), now have to pay full price on items that should be two for one.
My husband, who does have a cell phone, a fancy one, is unable to load the app to get those coupons. He complained to the clerk, who used her phone to help him out.
I don't want to have to ask for help in buying groceries!
I can't handle a cell phone because I'm old and I have tremors. Medical marijuana controls my tremors, but when I take that I can't drive to the store.
When I get a flat tire I have to go someplace that will let me use their phone to call AAA--there are no public phones anywhere anymore.
(I don't want helpful suggestions, just sympathy).
