How to save money with employee and student discounts
If you work for a big company or go to a university there are probably tons of student and employee discounts that you don’t even know of. Some common discounted items sponsored by places that I’ve passed through have included movie tickets, museum passes, sporting event tickets, concert tickets, gym memberships, cell phone plans, AAA membership and cruises.
You’ll have to do a little poking around but you’ll be able to find out about them in no time with these easy hints. First, look through all those employer or university flyers you get in the mail. They may include actual clipable coupons, special offer codes or the physical address of where to go and purchase discount tickets. The next thing you want to do is check out the employee or student services office. Just go in and politely ask if this is the office responsible for helping with special offers or discounts.
Some of these discount deals will have annoying strings attached. Such as you must buy your tickets from the student services office, they only take cash and are only open during a four hour window. But rest assured that while these can be irritating, they are almost always harmless.
