Do You Have A Student Discount?

August 24, 2022                 I, Krystal, haven’t always been thrifty. In fact, I used to get a bit embarrassed by my friends that would ask for discounts or present coupons for purchases. I thought, if I had the money, why wouldn’t I pay full price? Don’t even get me started on how much I have likely paid for purchases when in overseas places where haggling is the ‘norm’ – I could never do it. However, this mindset has certainly changed over time for me. Immensely. For the better half of my adult life, I have enjoyed scanning Sunday ads for the best grocery prices, finding deals on other household items needed, and I love starting at the sale rack in stores. When Alisa and I first started dating I told her I was cheap, but really, I’m just thrifty; I love a good experience and will pay full price if I have to but love to see if I can find a discount first. With being in Project Money and trying to still have fun, we’ve started being even more strategic about it, so are not paying full price. Our newest discovery was realizing we can qualify for student discounts since we are both Grad students. Which, with the cost of tuition, we’ll gladly take any perk we can get to reduce some costs.    To get student discounts, though, we each needed a student ID, so a few weeks ago we headed to our college campus, so we have our headshots taken and IDs made. We have started making a list of places we can use our student IDs so we can have some more “economical” date nights and/or ideas to do with friends when they are visiting town. While there is a plethora of ways we save money on different purchases, here are just some of the local discounts we will get now thanks to our student IDs:
