10 of the Best Student Discounts

As a college student, I don’t think I’ve been this perpetually poor since I bought my Game Boy Advanced 10 years ago. And after a summer of living on my own, no dining hall included, my wallet really felt the burn—a stinging, 3rd degree, need-medical-attention-now burn. It was time to get real, and instead of begging my mom for account transfers every other day, I instead looked to see where I could save money. Here are 10 of the most useful student discounts this side of the mountain of college debt:

1) Amazon Prime Student

There are no ends to Prime’s glory. You want toilet paper in

two days? You got it. You want to watch Sex and The City until the sunrise? You got it. For $50 rather than $100, you can reap all the benefits Amazon has to offer.

2) UNiDays


Sign up for UNiDays and you enter a world of hundreds of discounts—Apple, ASOS, Missguided, Express and so on—the sign up is free, and so are the smiles when you see all the money that can go toward Arbor Mist rather than a new interview outfit.

3) Sam's Club Student Discount

Go in with a few friends, and get more Tide Pods than you’ll ever need. Also, if you don’t feel like making the plunge yet know your parents have a card, you can use theirs temporarily (for free) while in store.

4) Adobe

Act now and you can get it for $15.99 (s/o to Black Friday) or wait and get it for $19.99. Either way, you are saving stacks on stacks from the regular price of $39.99.


5) Madewell

When buying a scarf can cost you $50 dollars, a 15% discount can mean the difference between a ridiculous and somewhat-justified purchase.


6) Kate Spade

Another 15%, another dollar. Go ahead get the phone case AND the planner.

7) Spotify Premium

Half price for one of the greatest luxuries there ever was—to skip through as many songs as you want without having to listen to ad for Strayer University.

8) Hulu

Although they technically don’t have a discount, you can have a month trial and suspend billing for up to three months—not too bad when your bank is sending you insufficient fund texts.

9) Chipotle

Get a free drink with your student ID, so at least you don’t have feel bad when you fill up a water cup with lemonade.

10) The New Yorker

Educate yourself and look worldly by paying six dollars for 12 weeks’ worth of the best writing and cartoons known to man.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
