How does the Macys employee discount work? I just got a job at Macys...they haven't explained the employee discount to me yet, so I need to know. They pay practically nothing (this is by far the lowest I've been paid in my life), and if the discount isn't good I might not go to training. Do I need to use my Macys credit card? What departments don't get discounts? Can I use the discount at sister stores? I've previously read that you need to have the credit card to get the discount. I know it's 20% but it doesn't include all departments. If Coach and Movado aren't included, I'm out of there.

For one reason or another, most of our customers are familys and the older working class.

My question is, how much of a discount should I give to lure in students? Obviously giving the food away just about assures they come in, but this is still a buisness we have to run so what's the smallest discount that would lure you in to try a new restuarant?
How much discount should you give to friends when selling handmade crafts? I know someone who wants to sell their crafts and start a business but isn't sure what percentage discount is right to offer friends, family and colleagues.

Are the percentages for friends, family and colleagues different?

Getting a product discount and donating to the same nonprofit? Okay, my children go to a religious elementary school which is a valid nonprofit organization. I get a tuition discount from them. Can I donate to the school and deduct the donation from my taxes? I know that I can't deduct tuition. There is currently no agreement (written, oral, or even suggested) that a donation is any kind of compensation for my tuition discount. My questions are: 1) Can I deduct the contribution? 2) Even if it is legal (or illegal) to deduct the contribution, what is the likelihood that the IRS would investigate myself or the school as a result of doing this? 3) Can I use my donations as a bargaining point for bigger tuition reductions in the future? Presumably, they would get more money if they lower my tuition and I donate more, due to tax deductibility. -->Adam The tuition deduction is need-based and arbitrary - they don't have a mathematical formula for deductions of this type. The donations would not be large in comparison to others the institution receives.
How much of a discount do cell phone dealers get when buying phones? Just wondering how much of a discount do cell phone dealers get when buying phones...

What discount stores are there in Seattle WA for adults and teenagers? We are planning a trip to Seattle Washington next month and was wondering where the discount outlets were. We are looking for designer jeans for my husband and I. and clothes for my 11 year old son. If anyone could give me any recommendations that would be great. Thanks everyone. P.S. Yes if you can't afford expensive things you should not buy them. However, I do not see what's wrong with trying to get a discount even when you can afford it. Just because someone can afford it they shouldn't always have to pay full price.

To apply for good grades discount for car insurance, is it necessary to send a school transcript immediately? My parents are switching their auto insurance company and want me to apply for the good grades discount. I've researched that most insurance companies will only accept a 3.0 GPA and higher.

What's the best way to get a discount on the cost of car maintenance service fees at the dealer? I need my Toyota serviced and prefer to go to an authorized Toyota dealer. The service fees are higher at the dealer than a place like Midas or a neighborhood shop. So I asked the dealer what incentive he could give me to bring my car to him instead of other dealers.

I asked if the price is negotiable and the salesman said it's "take it or leave it" because the price is already so low.
