Here are some of the money saving tips for students:
Make a budget: Track your income and expenses to understand where your money is going and make informed decisions.
Cook your own meals: Eating out can be expensive, so try cooking your own meals and snacks.
Use public transportation: Instead of driving a car, use public transportation, walk, or take a shuttle bus to campus.
Take advantage of student discounts: Many retail shops offer discounts for students, so always ask!
Buy used textbooks: You can save up to 75% by buying used textbooks instead of new ones.
Use the library: Instead of buying all books, use the library to access free resources.
Shop during sales: Plan your shopping trips during sales and stock up on essentials.
Save your change: At the end of each day, save your loose change in a jar or piggy bank. It may not seem like much, but it can add up over time!
