In addition to the student benefit of scholarships, there's one huge retail secret more students should know about: there are many student deals and discounts specifically available for students only.
Dollars saved and discounts applied here and there can help high school and college students save money. Whether that's saving your cash to help you to pay for school, or funding that spring break getaway with friends, savings from student discounts add up!
Student deals are there for you to use, and you don't need a 3.0 GPA to get your hands on these offers. In addition to Fastweb's Student Deals, below is a list of the 20+ best student discount programs this year by category.

Ask if a local store offers special student discounts.
Many college-town restaurants, video game resale stores, and boutiques offer college student discounts—this is the businesses' way of showing student support. Be proud to be frugal, and don't be afraid to ask. Most student discounts are not prominently displayed. Negotiation and frugality are life skills that will serve you throughout your education and later in life!
Always have your student ID on you and know your student email address.
You'll often need some sort of student identification to prove your student status. Typically, this can be a valid high school or college student ID. If you're shopping online, you may need to verify your status with your high school or college email address.
In some instances, well-known retailers use an identification verification service such as ID.me. UNiDAYS is also a discount website that requires a verified student ID.
In addition to the above student savings, be sure to create a free Fastweb profile. From this, you'll be matched to scholarships that fit you; in a way, scholarships are serious college sticker-price discounts. You'll also gain access to Fastweb's Student Deals each month.
