Two words: student budget. If you’re anything like me, you can’t resist a good deal. After first year, I found that my student card was almost useless, because I didn’t need to go to the dining hall anymore. It turns out you can get crazy discounts, just by showing a valid post-secondary student card! Here are a few places you can get a discount when you flash that plastic card of yours.
An SPC card will save your life. The card costs $10 to purchase, and can be bought online, or at most stores that accept SPC cards.
If you don’t have an SPC card, don’t panic; many stores and restaurants offer other deals, with no SPC card required.
FOOD
There’s nothing worse than Mondays, am I right? Shoeless Joe’s has you covered with 25% off your purchase of food on Mondays (only at participating locations).
