My wife recently became a pensioner. I still have a few years to go yet, but have already started winding down at the grand old age of 57. I have been doing up our bathroom and we decided to pick a few things up at the local B&Q in Merthyr Tydfil, that Monday. We ended up spending more than expected, but were pleased with our new suite, tiles and underfloor heating kit, which came to about £1,000 in total. The next day we happened to bump into a couple of friends and were astonished to be told that if we had gone to B&Q on Wednesday, that particular store gave 10% off for OAPs! Having worked with computers by profession, I went on to the internet to check this information. I couldn't find anything. I rang the store and it was true! The Internet didn't even seem to have anything to inform pensioners of the special deals and offers given by retail companies UK wide. Hence the birth of this website to do just that - provide information on retail discounts and special deals for OAPs/Senior Citizens/Pensioners in the UK - www.OAPs.info !
