I don’t know about you guys, but once I graduated high school, I began dreading entering a certain stage in life that is inevitable for several undergraduate students: the broke college student phase. When I say “broke” I don’t necessarily mean the stereotypical definition of having no money. Instead, I mean my parents aren’t paying for my food, clothes, shoes, toiletries, and miscellaneous purchases anymore. So many other college students are also in the same boat, and this encourages the urge to be more financially conservative.
Being a “broke” college student may seem scary at first, but there are several retail outlets, streaming platforms, and food services that understand the struggle of the college grind. Listed below are 10 platforms and services that provide college students discounts:
#1 Adidas
Thanks to their partnership with UNiDAYS, Adidas will provide you with a 30% discount + free shipping if you create an account with your school email.
