Student Discounts You Should be Using

You’re really rocking that poor college student vibe. Take it up a notch and experience some awesome things while you’re at it by taking advantage of these amazing student discounts available nearby!

The Kimmel Center has a program called STIX which allows any person with a valid student ID to attend select shows for just $10 a ticket. The shows could be anything from jazz concerts to stand-up comedy to Broadway productions, but no matter the subject, you’ll be given the best available seating at a steep discount. If you’re willing to travel a little further for your music and theater, the Metropolitan Opera and Carnegie Hall both offer student discounts as well.

Students can get a two-day pass to all four museum buildings for just $14 – a 30% discount on the adult tickets! Plus, the first Sunday of every month from 10am-5pm, and every Wednesday from 5-8:45pm is pay what you want! You can start at a penny and move up from there!

If you’re interested in the creative side of technology, this discount should come as great news for you! Adobe offers students the entire Creative Cloud – apps for photo, video, design, and web – for 60% off the normal price.

Need a package in two days? Amazon has the amazing student discount on Prime services including free shipping and Amazon video and music free for six months, and 50% off after that. Bonus: you can rent your textbooks from Amazon at great discounts, as well!

  • Fast Food

Most popular fast food places such as Chipotle, Taco Bell, Dunkin Donuts, etc. offer students a free drink with a meal or even 10% off a purchase! Not every location participates, but always be sure to ask (and bring your ID)!

  • Movie Theaters

A movie is a great way to relax off some of that college stress! Let a little more stress melt away as the total price drops. Select Regal and Cinemark theaters both offer student discounts, and AMC gives cheaper rates on Thursdays.

 

  • Clothing

Countless clothing stores including The Limited, Charlotte Russe, and even Sam’s Club give out varying student discounts and special rates and offers that could save you a bundle at checkout on necessary clothing!

This list is in no way comprehensive; there are hundreds of stores, restaurants, museums, and more which offer amazing student discounts, like this list from Money Done Right. School is expensive and college workloads can be heavy, but the ultimate benefit of education will be totally worth it as you move forward into the next stage of your life. In the meantime, enjoy as many of the current benefits as you can!
