In March 2026, various supermarket chains in Argentina are maintaining discounts for retirees and pensioners, which can be utilized alongside the benefits provided by ANSES. The base discount starts at 10%, but it can increase depending on special promotions, partnerships with banks, or internal supermarket campaigns. Each chain has its own specific rules regarding the promotions, including maximum limits and special discount days, which can vary throughout the month.

For example, some banks are offering additional discounts on top of the base rate. Banco Nación offers a 5% discount through its payment system MODO, while Banco Galicia can provide discounts up to 25%. Additionally, Banco Supervielle offers a 20% discount on Tuesdays, and Cuenta DNI provides a 5% discount at selected supermarkets. These extensions significantly enhance the savings for those using their bank services in conjunction with supermarket chains.

Coto supermarket chain has introduced a specific promotion for retirees and pensioners that provides a 15% discount, which requires customers to present their national identification document and complete their payment in a single transaction. This initiative exemplifies how supermarkets are working to make shopping more affordable for seniors, reflecting a broader commitment within the retail sector to support vulnerable populations in Argentina during economic challenges.
