Save Money at Home

Think about University accommodation. You get internet, gas and electricity, TV license and membership to the Tom Husband Leisure centre all included in your rent.
If you choose to live in private accommodation, check what is included in your rent. Remember that you may have to pay extra for internet and bills.
Live with your friends. Generally, the more people sharing a house or flat the cheaper the rent will work out each. You’ll save when you split the bills too.
Put your heating on a timer and stick to it. Invest in a hot water bottle and some big jumpers to keep out the cold when you’re studying.
Have showers instead of baths.
Cook together with your housemates - stews, chillis and currys for a crowd are cheaper than ready meals for one. Alternatively, make lots and freeze the extra.
Buy second hand books or even go to a Book Swap event. You can even find most course material in the library but remember to go early to find the copies of the books you want! If you have books you would like to swap, the I Swap Books website may also be useful.
You can also independently compare broadband providers using Cable. This site is Ofcom accredited so it won't sell you things you don't need during the comparison.
