Every Dalton State College student is issued a Roadrunner ID card during their first year at the school. Do you only use it for printing and getting your DSC basketball game tickets? Well, I hope not. If that is what you have been doing, you're really missing out. It turns out that your Roadrunner ID is a lot more beneficial than you may have thought. There are some local businesses that support Dalton State students, faculty, and staff by rewarding us with a discount at their stores.

Each business offers at least a 10 percent discount, but it can vary by location. So, the next time that you visit one of these locations, don't forget to pull out your Roadrunner ID and find out what kind of discount you are entitled to receive.

1. AT&T

If you're an AT&T customer, you can save money by showing your Roadrunner ID to the AT&T located at 1526 W Walnut Avenue in Dalton. You could be missing out on saving yourself a little money.
