Nothing says “It’s Fall semester” like being slapped in the face with a coupon booklet on the journey through Turlington.
You put on your sunglasses and try to stare intently down at your phone so the dementors lurking to suck your soul and hand you useless pieces of paper will maybe leave you alone, but it’s an impossible mission and you always end up with a fistful of colored pamphlets anyway.
Before you blatantly ignore the “Please Recycle” signs and throw them all away in the nearest trashcan, I’ve done the work for you and figured out which coups are worth saving from this year’s encyclopedia sized discount booklet, Campus Special.
You’re welcome.
Bento Cafe
$1.00 off
Enough said. Quit complaining about the line and keep your eye on the prize: your abundant Bento box or endless noodle bowl.
Tropical Smoothie
A free smoothie with purchase of any wrap of sandwich
My recommendations:
Wasabi Caesar Roast Beef Sandwich – roast beef, pepper jack, romaine & wasabi caesar dressing on a toasted ciabatta
Southwest Chicken Wrap – chicken, salsa, southwestern rice with corn, black beans & asparagus, tomatoes, onions, guacamole, romaine, light southwest ranch in a toasted flour tortilla
Buy one get one free for any low fat smoothie
Choose something with mango, because, well, mangoes are incredible. Suck down a Sunrise Sunset (Strawberries, Pineapple, Mango & Orange) or a Sunny Day (Mango, Banana, Orange & Kiwi)
Designer Greens
$1.00 off
Enjoy your overpriced, but delicious salad creation. I always go with the Gorgonzola Salad because everything is better with bacon, crunchy onion frizzles and stinky cheese.
(Disclaimer: even with the discount it will probably be overpriced)
Relish
$1.00 off any burger with combo
I know you like to kid yourself and think “ehh, I don’t usually go for the combo” but I also know that when you’re wasted in line you try and sneak your fingers under the glass and grab French fries until you get yelled at. Save this coup for post-midtown munchies.
Burrito Famous!
Free chips and salsa w/ purchase of any burrito or bowl
“…the entree ain’t as good without somethin on the side”
- Fabolous in his hit song “Can’t Let You Go”
Mochi
$1.00 off frozen yogurt
This qualifies for minimum purchases of $4.00, but let’s be real, if you’ve been to Mochi and ordered less than $4 worth of artificially sweetened crack, then you’re doing it wrong.
Study Edge
Free Live Review
Since we all try and exert the minimum amount of scholastic effort from time to time and rarely make it to class, here is your quick fix.
The funniest coup of the year:
Early Bird Special $1.00 off haircut at the Reitz Union from 9 a.m. – noon
Who doesn’t want to wake up early and be pampered right next to Subway’s pungent lunch meats?
