For students or general people who have less than 25 years of age there are special discounts mostly in traveling. For buying important household items or electronic equipment, in France in general, there are two big discount seasons that take place each year, one in summer and one at christmas time.

If you use the telephone a lot, use a regular phone card (with chip on it) for local calls and an Omni card (with code number on back) to call the United States. Rates work out to be less that way.
