Check for Student Discounts

I live in a college town. Several of the grocery stores in town offer a 5% discount, with a student ID. Thus, we basically don't pay sales tax on our groceries. Cool, right?

Have you ever checked into discounts like this? You might be surprised what you can find. Some stores may not publicize them, but would give them when asked. So ask.

At our grocery store you have to link your student ID to your store loyalty card. I guess this makes it easier for them to track. But it also makes it easier for us. I don't have to actually show my ID any more. And my wife gets the discount when she's alone too.
