Here’s one advantage of taking nine years to get through college – you become an expert at student discounts.
That’s what happened to Cyrus Shepard, who spent almost a decade studying at three different universities. After paying so much tuition, he became a master of the student discount and founded Globe Student Discount. (Once he graduated, of course.)
The Globe gives students, teachers, and parents of students access to discounts in three main categories: travel, software and computers. They have coupons and promo codes for Apple, Dell, Microsoft, Adobe, airline tickets, bus passes, textbooks and much more.
I saw an 11 percent discount for JetBlue, 8 percent off on HP laptops, and 70-80 percent off Adobe software like Acrobat and Photoshop. The site is free to use and has a special section just for teacher discounts.
