student discounts with my new student card!

Anyone know where I can use it?  So far I know of Dorothy Perkins and HMV who both operate 10% off schemes for cardholders, anywhere else?  Over 16 college card by the way.

peacocks give 10% discount and some restaurants do too

Topshop/Topman always used to give 10% off, back in the day :-)

Many places now only do NUS discount, and the swines seem to think that its ok to only offer the discount from September onwards.  What about the hundreds of nursing/masters/PhD students who study 12 months a year!?!  Tsk!

TopShop require an NUS card as far as I know, as do all the other shops in the Arcadia group (i.e., Dotty P too).  Ditto for HMV.  I think most require NUS as everything else is too easily faked. 

Good luck though babyshambles.  By the way - just ask everywhere - I always do.  :-)

I think we get an NUS card next week when I start college, I agree with the whole "only in term time" rule, it's so warped!  I'm skint all year round!  It's the same with buses, grrr.

In cinemas you can get student discount too, I know Odeon and UCI do but I'm not sure about others

By the way, I'm sorry to keep raining on the parade here, but I saw that some shops only offer discount to those in "Full time further education".  I believe that post-16 is "higher" and post 18 is "further", but I could be totally wrong.  I've done the schooling/uni-ing, but I'm darned if I know the terms for it! lol

Either way - just ask away!  Term-time only rule - down with that I say!  Tight swines!  They should also give a graduates card - some of us are totally skint still - that overdraft apparently isn't paying off itself! :-(

Faith shoes shops certainly do!

Au Naturale give 10% off full price stuff. I think Burger King give 10% off as well.
