As a hard-working student, you probably want to enjoy the finer things in life, but could do without the hefty price tag. Luckily, many businesses, both big and small, offer student discounts on a variety of products and services. Here are some of the best ones. 

Entertainment

If you’re looking for deals on entertainment, you use your student email for Amazon Prime, where you’ll receive a free six month trial and then 50% of a Prime membership for as long as you’re a student. Likewise, your favorite music apps likely offer a pretty substantial student discount, like Apple Music’s $5 a month deal, or a Spotify, Hulu, and Showtime bundle for $4.99 a month with a valid student email.  

Insurance

It’s worth checking with your auto insurance provider to see what kind of deals they offer for students. Companies like State Farm offer good grades discounts, which can save you up to 25%! 

Restaurants

Before you head out to grab a bite to eat, it may be worth checking online to check for deals. A lot of fast food restaurants will knock 10% off the total price if you show your student ID, and some may offer a free item. If you can’t find anything about a student discount online, you can always ask when you’re checking out. 

Technology 

As a student, you’ll probably need to purchase a device to do homework on, whether it’s a laptop, tablet, or something else. You can check out Apple, Dell, Sony, and more to see if you can save some money on software and technology. 

If you’re unsure about student discounts, it doesn’t hurt to ask. Take advantage of the great savings your student ID and email can get you!
