If your summer vacation is mostly a staycation, then your goal is to maximize your good times while minimizing your expenses, right?
Please meet the ISIC.
The International Student Identity Card is something most students pick up before a big trip overseas. Along with discounted student airfare and tour packages, you can flash it at:
- hostels
- museums
- bus stations
- amusement parks
- restaurants
- shops
And lots of other places to get discounts on purchases, tickets, admissions and other travel expenses.
But the ISIC isn’t just for use around tourist destinations in Europe and Australia. There are places right near you that accept an ISIC, so you can save cash even if you’re going for pizza and a movie with friends.
For a full list of ISIC discounts in Canada and the U.S., check out the ISIC website. Here’s a sample of where you can save.
- Ontario Science Centre, Toronto: 20% off general admission
- CN Tower, Toronto: 15% discount on Look Out and Glass Floor admission
- Madame Tussaud’s, Hollywood: $6 off price of admission
