But it doesn’t have to be all that bad. Many retailers across the country offer students some of the best deals on all the student essentials, such as tech, fashion, beauty and food.

Some retailers offer students discounts in stores or directly on their site, or you can claim them via student-focused websites such as Unidays, Student Beans or NUS (the Totum card - the new name for the NUS Extra Card), which requires you to show a valid card to redeem a discount.
