Restaurant Student Discounts You Didn’t Know Existed
Now that most colleges have been back in school for a month, it’s about the time when dining hall food begins to get old. However, many students avoid going out to eat, as they are on a serious college budget. What these students don’t know is that, much like clothing stores, there are many restaurants that offer student discounts (you just have to show your student ID). Below are some of the best deals I’ve found!
