Lots of big companies – from Apple to Microsoft and Hello Fresh to Deliveroo – offer great deals when you’re studying
Leaving home for university can be an expensive business. But there are many deals and discounts which can reduce the cost.
The best advice is to always carry your student card with you – most places accept a UNiDAYS ID, Student Beans ID or Totum card, or sometimes even an email providing proof that you are a student. And where it is not clear whether a place offers a student discount or not, don’t be shy to ask.
