    My Dad works in the motor industry. He gets a discount on new vehicles. Because it was such a good discount he would get trade his old car in each time and get a brand new car.

    No word of a lie, when the discount first started the cost of the discounted car was less than the trade in value of his old car. The dealer ended up giving my Dad money!

    I've just started in McDonald's (first ever job, besides paper rounds). Does anyone know when I get the discount card?

    And what do I get with it? Thanks in advance

    I'm enjoying my NHS discount at the moment.

    10% off at Dorothy Perkins, 50% off Domino's pizza, I just got my rental car discounted by quite a bit with AVIS (they didn't say how much the discount was but it was almost half price), 10% at Evans... there are loads more, but these are the ones that I have used so far.
