how to save and make money as a student
tutoring! one of the easiest to make good money in limited time! you donāt have to make home calls if you sign up to an online tutoring agency and tutor over skype
sell your old clothes. to friends/classmates or online (eBay or depop are my favourite platforms)
sell your old notes.Ā this is easily done online and a good way to make a little extra cash
sell your skills.Ā sites like etsy and redbubble are good places to make money off your creative talents
save Ā£1378 in a year with my free printable
make coffee and tea at home. those dailyĀ Ā£3 coffees add up quickly
take your own mug to coffee shops. if you canāt resist the temptation of a coffee shop coffee take your own mug. pret a manger gives you a 50p discount if you bring your own mug and caffe neroĀ gives you double stamps
donāt carry money with you all the time.Ā this will just make you tempted to spend
never buy another bottle of water.Ā carry a reusable bottle with you, bottled water is very very overpriced considering most cafes will refill yourĀ bottle forĀ free
donāt use apple pay.Ā if you always have access to money youāll be much more tempted to go into that shop and buy the top you passed in the window
food prep! carry snacks and a packed lunch with you to avoid pricey snack bars and ready meals. this is also an easy way to be healthier
home cook.Ā this is always cheaper than eating out and 99% of the time cheaper than pot noodles/ramen. home cooking is even more affordable if you do it in bulk or with friends
borrow and download free ebooks and audiobooks as much as possible
make good use of the library. instead of buying books borrow them for free, a library membership is often freeĀ if you belong to a university/college butĀ a membership is still often cheaper than buying lots of books if youāre a big reader
bring reusable bags to avoid paying for plastic bags and be kinder to the environment.
go paperless.Ā avoid printing costs and look after the environment
cut your own hair. going to the hairdressers is expensive and can be saved as a treat but if you just need to trim your split ends thereās no reason why you shouldnāt do it yourself or get a friend to help you
pre drink! if you are going out then drink alcohol at home itās much cheaper than buying it in pubs or bars
use cash.Ā itāsĀ muchĀ easier to avoid spending money and stick to your budget when you can see exactly how much you haveĀ
keep track of your saving and spending.Ā i love the āpocket expenseā app. this will also show you what things you are overspending onĀ
collect coupons and loyalty cards. points make prizes!
create a culture of clothes borrowing among your friends.Ā instead of always buying new things for events
