How to find the best deals and discounts for international students?

Depending on where in the country you decide to enroll, studying in Australia can be fairly costly. Because of this, many businesses provide student discounts to help you cut costs everywhere you can.

However, one of your best options is getting an International Student Identity Card (ISIC).
The IDP ISIC card offers you savings on travel, shopping, movies, entertainment, tourist attractions, and dining with over 5,000 businesses in Australia, the UK, Canada, the US, New Zealand, and Ireland.

Your IDP ISIC card earns you a huge range of discounts including:

• Up to 20% off at many cafes and restaurants
• Up to 40% off flights and train tickets
• Special offers from theme parks and attractions
• $25 off your first ride with Uber
• Movie tickets from $11.50
• 5% off groceries with Woolworths supermarket gift cards

For electronics, students can go to JB Hi-Fi, which is Australia's largest home entertainment store. All of their products are on sale.

For fashion, The Iconic is well-liked by Australians as a destination for high-quality fashion. Not only do they offer discounts to students, but they also offer discounts and coupons for big brands like Topshop and Levi's on a regular basis.

The Student Discount website regularly features discounts at popular department stores like Boots and electronics retailers like Curry's that do not require a login.

The Save the Student website provides frequent deals on everything from books and electronics to days out and travel, making it a go-to resource for students in the UK. Moreover, Student Universe provides discounts on flights, hotels, and tours for students travelling within and outside of the UK. On top of that, it is common in the UK for stores on or near college campuses and in their immediate neighborhoods to provide special pricing or discounts to students.

If you have an ISIC card, you can shop online in the US just like in Australia or the UK. What's more, your student ID can get you into many stores' student discount programs. 

Showing your student ID at retailers like Banana Republic and Levi's can get you a discount. A lot of restaurants and movie theatres, like AMC and Cinemark, as well as fast food joints like Burger King and Domino's, offer special pricing and discounts to students.

Finally, Dell, Microsoft, and Apple all provide significant discounts on electronic devices popular among students.

Numerous retailers, like Roots, Eddie Bauer, and TOMS Shoes in Canada, offer student discounts. Show your student ID at the register and get a discount of up to 20%, any time of the year.

In addition to the many other well-known phone and electronics providers available in Canada and other countries, student discounts with Shaw and Best Buy can help you save money on electronics.

Moreover, students frequently receive discounts at museums, movie theatres, and car rental agencies.

A lot of stores in college towns provide discounts to students, and you can find signs and banners advertising them. If you're looking for a discount on a brand that doesn't publicly offer any, you might have to do a little extra digging.

• See if they provide a student discount by searching their website and looking in the footer. 
• Check the brand's Q&A section on social media (most do) and put your question to the test there. Ask if they know where to find the student discount section. 
• When you are in a store or restaurant and wondering if you may save money by asking the staff if you qualify for a discount, do just that. If you ask nicely, the staff should have no trouble telling you what choices you have.
