Oh yes, I said it. Was the word "save" what made you so excited right there or was it the thought of the money you will still have in your pocket after taking advantage of being a college student?
1. Apple Music
Hello? $4.99 per month instead of $9.99 per month is actually a huge difference. I'd much rather pay $5 than $10 for unlimited music; $10 just seems like too much, but $5 is just right!
2. Tattoo and piercing coupons
$20 for a basic piercing? GREAT - it's time for you to literally shine and express yourself however you want. Take advantage of those coupon books laying all around campus, you will stumble upon several parlors that give you extremely generous deals.
One might say, "why would I use a coupon on a tattoo? Wouldn't that just encourage the tattoo artist to do a bad job?" Well let me tell you, I saved 50 bucks on a $200 tattoo, and Mike from Kaleidoscope did an amazingly perfect job. Tattoo artists aren't there for just the money, they want to contribute to the wonderful person you are by letting you express yourself with no judgment. It does not matter what the piece is or where you are putting it on your body.
Don't forget to tip your artist!
3. Beauty Salons
4. PIZZA
College students thrive on pizza deals. What a coincidence that there is a Dominos right next to campus! Are you more eager now to find one of these golden coupon books?
5. Gas Prices
This isn't a direct coupon, but us college students need to save money on gas! Visit www.missourigasprices.com to find the cheapest gas prices around town!
6. Movies!
There are several movie theaters around Springfield, all of which provide generous deals on movie tickets. You don't even have to be a student to receive these prices!
7. Amazon Prime
Personally, I love Amazon Prime; anything and everything is sold on Amazon. In the dorms, I used it all the time because I wanted to avoid driving. 2-day shipping is golden, and you can receive a 6-month FREE trial if you sign up with your student .edu email.
8. Spotify
I prefer Apple Music rather than Spotify, but I definitely respect all of you Spotify users! I can see why people love Spotify; students will love it, even more, when they realize you can get Spotify Premium for $4.99 per month! Yes, that is 50% off!
Missouri State University loves their students and wants them to succeed when it comes to managing their time between fun and school work. MO state wants everyone to be safe, especially when spending their money! Here is a website provided by MSU to show more opportunities to save money around town: https://www.missouristate.edu/FinancialAid/RealLIFE/student-savings.htm
Be safe, have fun, and avoid being a broke college student!
