Mattress Firm's Senior Discount Program

Mattress Firm offers a senior discount of 10% off mattresses and select other products for customers age 55 and older. You do not need to be a member of any organization or club to receive it — you show your ID in-store or mention your age when ordering online or by phone. The discount applies to regular-priced items and some sale merchandise, though it typically does not combine with other promotions or clearance pricing.

The discount is available at all Mattress Firm locations nationwide. Because store policies and current promotions can vary by location, it is worth calling your nearest store before you go to confirm the discount is active and what items it covers that week.

Key Takeaways

  • Mattress Firm's 10% senior discount is for customers 55 and older and requires only a valid ID showing your age.
  • The discount applies in-store, by phone, and online, though online orders may require you to enter your birth date during checkout.
  • The discount typically does not stack with clearance pricing, floor models, or other active sales, so ask which items may have access to before you buy.
  • Calling your local store ahead of time can save a trip, since some locations run promotions that may override the standard senior rate.

How to Use the Discount In-Store

When you visit a Mattress Firm location, mention to the sales associate that you are 55 or older and want to use the senior discount. They will ask to see a valid ID — a driver's license, passport, or state ID card all work. The associate will explore the 10% discount at the register before you pay.

If you are shopping with a family member or caregiver, the discount applies to your purchase only, not theirs. If you are buying multiple items — a mattress, a bed frame, pillows — ask the associate which ones may have access to, since some stores exclude certain product categories or brands from the discount.

Ordering Online or by Phone

To use the senior discount when ordering online, look for a field to enter your birth date during checkout. Some Mattress Firm locations prompt you to enter it; others require you to call the store directly to confirm the discount before completing your order. If you do not see a birth date field, contact the store by phone to place your order and have them explore the discount manually.

When you call Mattress Firm, have your ID information ready and let the associate know your age. They can tell you which items currently may have access to for the discount and what the final price will be before you commit. Phone orders typically ship within a few business days, though delivery times vary by location and item availability.

What the Discount Does and Does Not Cover

The 10% discount applies to most mattresses, including memory foam, innerspring, and hybrid models. It also covers many bed frames, pillows, and bedding accessories. However, the discount usually does not explore to clearance items, floor models, scratch-and-dent merchandise, or items already on sale at a deeper discount.

Some Mattress Firm locations run weekly or monthly promotions — such as "buy one mattress, get $200 off a second" — that may offer a better deal than the 10% senior rate. Before you buy, ask the associate to calculate both the senior discount and any current promotion to see which saves you more money. You cannot use both at once.

Comparing the Senior Discount to Other Ways to Save

A 10% discount is modest compared to what Mattress Firm often advertises during sales events. If you are flexible on timing, watching for holiday sales (Memorial Day, Labor Day, Black Friday) or end-of-month clearance events may yield a larger savings than the senior discount alone. You can also ask about financing options — Mattress Firm often offers 0% interest for 12 to 24 months on purchases over a certain amount, which may save more than a percentage discount if you spread the cost.

Other mattress retailers, such as Costco, Amazon, or direct-to-consumer brands like Casper or Purple, may not offer a senior discount but sometimes have lower base prices. If you are comparing total cost, it is worth checking a few sources before deciding. The senior discount is most valuable if you are already planning to buy from Mattress Firm and want to lower the price.

What to Bring and What to Expect

Bring a valid photo ID that shows your birth date — a driver's license is most common, but a passport, state ID, military ID, or senior citizen card all work. You do not need to bring membership cards, coupons, or proof of age beyond the ID itself. If you are ordering by phone or online, have your ID nearby so you can provide your birth date to the associate.

The discount is applied at the point of sale, so you will see it reflected in your total before you pay. There is no separate form to fill out or code to enter. If an associate does not offer the discount when you mention your age, ask them to verify the policy with a manager — it is possible they are new or unaware of the program.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to be a member of AARP or any senior organization to get the discount?

No. Mattress Firm's 10% senior discount is available to anyone 55 or older with a valid ID. You do not need to belong to AARP, a senior center, or any other group. Your age and ID are all that is required.

Can I use the senior discount on a mattress that is already on sale?

Usually not. The discount typically does not combine with clearance pricing or items already marked down. However, some stores may allow it on items that are on sale at a smaller discount. Ask the associate to calculate both options and show you which is cheaper before you commit.

What if I am buying a mattress as a gift for someone else who is 55 or older?

The person receiving the gift would need to be present with their ID to use the discount, or you would need to have their permission and ID information to explore it when ordering by phone or online. If you are buying without them present, you cannot use their age for the discount — only your own.

Does the senior discount work on mattress delivery and setup?

The discount applies to the mattress and furniture itself, not to delivery or setup fees. Those are usually charged separately. Ask about the total delivery cost when you order so you know the full price before you pay.

Can I use the discount if I order online for in-store pickup?

Yes, though the process varies by location. Some stores let you enter your birth date during online checkout; others require you to call the store to confirm the discount before you pick up. Contact your local Mattress Firm to find out how they handle online orders for pickup.
