What discounts do/did you get through your employer?
American Apparel, Best Buy, and Apple have the Best Employee Discounts, while Home Depot has the worst. Do you get any type of employee discount?? (list of the best/worst discounts ---> http://bit.ly/13kRbUP )
At SuperTarget, we get 10% off anything (plus an additional 5% using the RedCard plus 10% coupon after using the RedCard a certain number of times) -- At Landry's, their plan is optional. $9.00 is taken monthly out of your paycheck. In exchange, you get 50% off food at any restaurant (up to five people) and 30% off retail at any store owned by Landry's (whether it's at your location or not and it's in the United States). Discounts at any hotel owned by Landry's (varies on peak season). -- At Space Center Houston, I worked for the gift shop so I got 30% off. SCH employees got 20% off and annual SCH members got 10%. From December 1-24, an additional 10% is added. So if you wanted a piece of memorabilia, using that 40% discount was the best time. -- At Star Cinema Grill, you got 50% off entry and food. I can't remember if it included alcohol. -- At AMF Bowling, (if I remember correctly) the discount was $1.36(?) per game per person. I had my own shoes.

Re: What discounts do/did you get through your employer?
A lot of the discounts I've gotten with employers after working at Circuit City sucked because we got everything at cost there. I loved that man, it's amazing how high some of that stuff is marked up.

Most of my employer perks are things I have no interest in/take no advantage of except for the tax-deductible Metrocard program thing they have.

Re: What discounts do/did you get through your employer?
I work for Hyatt so I get a discount on rooms at any Hyatt in the world depending on the occupancy in that hotel. The only time I've used it so far, is when I went on vacation last year to Florida, and on the way home we stayed in Franklin, Tennessee and only had to pay $40 from $200! So that was nice. It's a nice benefit, if I would ever get to go anywhere...

Re: What discounts do/did you get through your employer?
My older job went to shit so I decided to quit. It was basically a home & construction retailer and I couldn't bare the close-mindedness of both the employees and customers. The whole majority were aging building contractors and senile retired lumberjacks that were too stubborn to understand that there's no way they could coat their beloved roof in extreme temperatures. They'd still come back, make a complaint and try to get their thousand buckets of exterior-urethane-reinforced-alkyd-paint refunded. And I must have wasted and spilt almost a whole shelf of paint during my time there.
So yeah. I came back the other day to buy some ice melter. Their new employees are too mentally affected to figure I don't work there anymore. I might consider building myself a shack with dat magic discount. |
