How old is a senior?
They may actually be able to buy a roll of toilet paper.
From stop and shop
Stop & Shop
Dear customers,
Part of that is showing compassion and care for some of our neighbors who are most vulnerable to the COVID-19 virus. According to the CDC, that is members of the population who are age 60 and older.
To support this group, beginning Thursday, March 19th, all Stop & Shop stores will open earlier in order to service only customers who are age 60 and over from 6:00a.m.-7:30a.m. daily.
HOW ON EARTH WILL THEY DETERMINE WHO IS A SENIOR...over 55.
Anyone can fake being a senior!
But is is a great gesture!
If you are retired, why would you want to get up at or before the crack of dawn anymore?
The good ol boy club in the county seat figure a community of 9500 do not deserve a genuine grocery store and oppose it when ever one is proposed here.
Great! Get all of the most susceptible, low-income, coronavirus targets together in one closed in area. Perfect.
old people are supposed to stay home because their health is so precarious...or did we shut down sports/vegas/bars/restaurants/movies/celebrations for the hell of it so they can go shopping?
Good on Dollar General!
Good move - we need more of this good news re: COVID-19.
Because there are decent people out there, trying to do the right thing.
Used to be you got carded to see if you were old enough to buy beer, now you get carded to see if you’re old enough to buy TP and Grape Nuts.
Not sure how that helps, but as a business decision to garner public favor? A home run.
Nice! They deserve it!
James Woods, the actor, was asking followers on Twitter last evening for suggestions how to help people during this CV crisis. One person suggested exactly this to let seniors grocery shop first. Woods has been doing these good works for quite some time via his Twitter account and,I suspect, privately. Good on him!
And if you get caught with batteries just say you’re old and confused.
Way to go, DG
Yay! Capitalism rises above anything and everything throw in Her way!
God Bless America!
Now, President Trump? Stop all the BS and get us back on track!
Tomorrow!
It makes sense. If they clean and disinfect at night, or right before opening, it would be the best time for those who are most at risk to come in.
