Back to School Savings: Must-Know Discounts for Students and Parents
24 August,2024 - 10:47 AMπ Back to school is in session for many! If you're like me, with a college kid or as a college student yourself, you know there are so many awesome discounts available to help you save! When they save, WE save! From clothes, food, beauty products, and entertainment to even new electronics, these discounts cover it all! Some of these deals are so good, I bet many of you didn’t even know about them and have been paying full price! π βοΈ As a parent of a college kid, I'm still paying for a TON! So of course, we had to do a college student discount post to help save my wallet! π This is going to be a LONG list, but to make it easier, I’ve broken it down into categories. Keep in mind, for most of these, you’ll only need your Student ID or a valid college email address. Let’s dive right in...
For starters, there are two websites that are hidden gems that you need to know about! These are absolute life savers!
- Student Beans - works with brands to get you exclusive student deals. Gymshark, Pandora, WHSmith and so much more! They have daily deals and exclusive offers you can't get elsewhere!
- UniDays - many retailers have partnered with UniDays where you provide your student eligibility one time through UniDays, then you do not have to verify your Student Status again. Additionally many retailers such as AE and Aerie, do not even require student verification to get the discount π€― Additionally, for the discounts that do require Student Status, many of them are eligible to High School Students ages 16+ πππ ( I have an almost 16 year old! This is HUGE)! Your student will live on this site as there are discounts for Food, Technology, Clothes and so much more!
