The quick answer: It varies — many Hy-Vee stores run a weekly senior discount day (often around 5% off), but the day, amount, and age minimum are set by each store.

The details

Hy-Vee has no chain-wide senior discount policy; individual stores set their own senior citizen discount days. Where offered it is typically about 5% off, with the qualifying age ranging from 55 to 62+ and the day varying — some stores use Wednesday or Thursday, and at least one location has advertised Monday and Tuesday. Because store directors control these promotions, call your local Hy-Vee to confirm its current day, age requirement, and percentage.

How to claim it

Call your local store to confirm its senior day, then mention the discount at checkout. (Qualifying age: 55+.)

Heads up: this offer is set by individual locations, not company-wide. Call your local store to confirm before making a special trip — and if your location's policy differs from what we have here, tell us so we can update this page.
