Student deals and discounts in Galway

dreababyluxe

Where in Galway offers student discounts(or deals) other than Topshop/man, and Newlook?

Newlook and Topshop/man are doing 20% off at mo but normally offer 10.

Eye Cinema does something called Ruby Tuesdays where admission with student ID is only €4.

And the offy on Father Griffin Road (not sure what it's called) do 4 cans, a mixer and a naggin for €10!

Just thought it might be a good idea to put a thread of them all together?

That I don't know, I haven't availed of the offer yet. Prob the cheapest stuff available, but most students I know wouldn't complain... Drink is drink!

Fahy's Tyre Worx on the Headford Road are running a discount of 10% for ALL Students on Tyres. Just started this week as part of the Road Safety Week in GMIT I think.

I'm not sure what they charge but just rang them to have my rear and front tyres switched/rotated. 2 min job - 20 euro...
Make sure to check prices before getting job done.

Btw, they have this offer too that maybe can interesting

FREE BALANCING? Wow, what an offer! I didn't realise it was an optional extra when having tyres fitted :pac:

They have been doing it for a good while. Not all BT's do it though, I think it may actually only be the Galway one. I was in BT's in Cork a while back buying a shirt and when I asked for the student discount they said they don't do it nor ever did.

I said good luck to them and said I would buy it in the Galway shop instead. 10% is a nice reduction on expensive stuff.

Did someone deny you an opportunity to attend University (or school judging by your spelling highlighted above) as you appear to have major issues with it and appear happy to see fees introduced to put more hard ship on family's and students who want to go to University. Cop on and grow up.

Regardless of that the poster appears have a major issue with NUIG and NUIG students, and appears to be happy to see the reintroduction of fees.

it's the 99.99 ad - I don't think he meant anything bad by it. Everytime I hear that line I smirk at that ad - you have to admit it is funny.

Tip: It's always a good idea for people doing the spelling/grammar nazi thing to make sure their post doesn't contain more "mistakes" than the post they're drawing attention to.

And no, I've no problem with university at all - I was, in fact, attempting to illustrate the value they provide for students currently, as per the thread topic.

edit: as to having an issue with NUIG students - some, perhaps, aye. I'm not sure about whether I'm 'for' or 'against' the re-introduction of fees, but that has no bearing on the topic in hand.

The post came across as a piss-take tbh, maybe you didn't mean it but thats how I read it, especially after reading your other posts in the NUIG thread about the fees march and the comment looking for a " march for the re-introduction of fees" in a thread which I cannot find.

This is gone way off topic, so I will say no more about it in this thread.

Can we stick to mention of, and discussion of, the discounts?
Otherwise the noise will drown the signal.

What? Students should have to pay...for their OWN EDUCATION?

Madness indeed.

You make it sound like it's comparible to buying a car or a kilo of coke. Although the latter is probably more profitable.
