If you are a college student and you're looking for places in which you can get discounts just by using your student ID then this article is definitely for you. Also, if you are the parents of college students you might want to tell them about these awesome discounts available to them so keep on reading as well.

- Movies
Every time that you go to the movies during college and you have your college student ID you are sure to receive a discount that will make you want to visit your local theaters even more. This might seem like if it's not possible, but just ask the next time that you're there. If the person who is selling you the ticket says that they don't do that, then perhaps finding another cinema is what you should do because most college towns offer this all the time.

- Stores
If you go to a local grocery store, convenient store, or department store you should also ask if they give student discounts. A lot of the Best Buy's, book stores, and clothing stores give these sorts of discounts. They might not be a lot, and sometimes you might be embarrassed to do this, but in the long run you can save a lot of money that you can use to buy other necessary things or to save up for payments or after college expenses.

- Bars and night clubs
Now this may not seem like if it's possible, but it certainly is. Almost all college towns have college nights, and during these college nights you can get in for a discounted price or for free just by showing your student ID to the person at the doors. Don't hesitate to try to do this even when it's not a college night; if you're a person who likes to go out a lot you will learn that having your student ID with you at all times will save you a lot of money and you'll never want to leave it at home again.

- Restaurants
You can be sure that a lot of the restaurants around your college will offer discounts to college students. For example pizza places, they always offer great discount prices on all of their menu to students, there are also discount cards that are sold to students which contain many discounts from about 20 local restaurants; ask for these at the on campus student stores.

- Amusement Parks
If you live near a Six Flags or another theme park and you like to visit it often while you're in college, then you should ask for the student discount when you purchase tickets or season passes as they are sure to offer these. All they will need to see is your student ID and you will surely at least get 2% off if not more on the total price.
