Discount app stretches your dollar

The National Seniors Australia (NSA) EAT | PLAY | SAVE app is proving to be a popular and practical everyday tool for members, helping them save on essentials and enjoy more of the things they love.

Recent usage data highlights just how embedded the app has become in users’ daily lives, with thousands of purchases made at supermarkets, eateries, entertainment venues, and retailers. 

At the top of the list is the Woolworths Supermarkets eGift Card, by far the most frequently used offer. 

This is hardly surprising. Groceries are a non‑negotiable household expense, and the ability to access discounts on supermarket spending delivers immediate, tangible savings week after week. For many members, this alone makes the app invaluable. 

Coming in second are Event Cinemas, BCC Cinemas, and Village Cinemas, showing that members are keen to save while watching the latest movies on the big screen. 

Discounted tickets allow seniors to keep social, active, and entertained without having to cut back because of rising living costs.

Third place goes to Hoyts, reinforcing the popularity of cinema experiences. Whether it’s a weekly outing or a special occasion, the app helps reduce the cost of leisure activities that support wellbeing and connection.

Next is the Dan Murphy’s eGift Card, which is a popular choice for members who purchase alcohol. Savings here are especially useful at times of celebrations or when buying for family gatherings, adding another layer of value beyond everyday essentials. 

Rounding out the top five is Coles, demonstrating that members are using the app strategically across supermarkets to maximise savings and shop where it suits them best. 

Beyond these top merchants, the wider benefits of the EAT | PLAY | SAVE app are clear. 

The app brings together discounts across food, shopping, travel, and entertainment in one easy‑to‑use place, helping NSA members make smarter choices and keep more money in their pockets. 

Importantly, app users can access savings on fuel eGift cards, which is particularly significant at a time when petrol and diesel prices remain stubbornly high. 

Even small per‑litre savings can quickly add up, especially for members who rely on their cars for errands, medical appointments, or visiting family. 

Taken together, the popularity of these merchants shows that EAT | PLAY | SAVE isn’t just about occasional treats; it’s about everyday savings that genuinely support NSA members at a time of high living costs.
