Bad news for a Federal Way senior | Letters


January 6, 2012 · Updated 11:40 AM 

I just received some bad news when I visited Old Country Buffet and Trader Joe’s. The former no longer offers seniors special (discounted) pricing as they have discontinued selling senior cards. In addition, Trader Joe’s has discontinued selling various forms of struedel, which was my favorite fruit dessert.

Unfortunately, for the residents of Federal Way, both were very bad business decisions. However, it is like the old saying goes: “Nothing good lasts forever.” As good ole jolly St. Nick would say, “Bah Humbug!”
