how i save money as a student in nyc! 🤑💸💰

hello friends! these are the student discount sites i am signed up to! i always look through them before making any purchase, and it’s saved me so much money over the years

1. student beans (my favorite)

2. unidays (really easy user interface)

3. sheer id (this is what a lot of official websites use to verify your student status! so getting an account is probably a good idea)

out of these three, i use student beans the most! they have so many discounts and is super user friendly. they also have the most variety of discounts (in my opinion)!
