An ethics question regarding DAT study materials

I think I know the answer to this but I'll ask anyway. I know a DAT bootcamp promo code for a predental society I'm not a member of, is it morally wrong (stealing) to use this? There is no proof required that you are in the society and when I entered the code the price dropped significantly so its definitely valid. My gut is saying don't do it.

It's not like you pay dues to be a part of the club right?. I don't think anyone would be mad at you about that. Is it right? No. Will people care? No.

Not sure how serious you are... But I ended up just paying full price. I figured my integrity is worth more to me than a small discount on this. I'm not going to value a few dollars more than doing the right thing.

Bootcamp is honestly one resource worth full price.

That being said, I don't think you're doing something wrong by using a code. I was broke once too.

If you are asking the question, then you probably know it probably not ethical.

here's a brownie point for being honest or at least trying to be.
But, in a more serious note, noone will care whether you use it or not.
To be technical about it, yes, it is unethical, but is it really crossing the boundary that much so that people will cast stones at you? no.

do what's best for you.
