Too Good To Go 

If you are a big foodie and love eating out but are mindful of your finances, Too Good To Go is going to save your life!  

This app is where restaurants, bakeries and cafes sell their food for half the original price or even lower.  

They sell ‘Surprise Bags’ that contain food left over from that day however are still good to eat.  

You book a surprise bag from your chosen restaurant and collect it by going directly to them during a certain time period.  

Most of these collections are in the evening, near their closing time.  

This will not only allow you to explore new cuisine from your local cafes, bakeries or restaurants at very cheap prices but also will contribute to reducing food waste – the best of both worlds!  

This is ideal for evenings when you don’t want to cook but also don’t want to spend too much on a take out.  

TodayTix 

TodayTix is a platform that sells tickets to West End Shows in London.  

What’s great about this app is that every morning at 10am they release reduced tickets of certain shows for that evening.  

These tickets can start from as little as £20!  

If you enjoy going to the theatres and decide to spontaneously see Wicked with your friends, check out TodayTix and you might get your tickets for a very good deal! 

Vinted 

London has many markets and carboot sales, but if you don’t have time to go to these events in person and still want to purchase clothes for cheap prices, Vinted is your best friend.  

Vinted is the UK’s most popular second-hand selling platform, where you will find various fashion pieces for affordable prices.  

You may even be able to find hidden gems like luxury hand bags and branded items if you keep digging and scrolling!  

Vinted is also perfect if you have clothes you don’t wear anymore and want to get rid of them – it makes the selling process super easy and convenient, and your clothes will be on their way to their second home in no time!  

With Vinted, not only will you be able to keep your wardrobe fresh and updated, but will allow you to contribute to sustainable shopping habits!  

If you are a fashionista that loves to strut into your lectures with the perfect outfits, this app is a must-have! 

Budgeting plays a huge role in student life but that doesn’t mean that you have to hold back from eating well, dressing well or having fun with your friends.  

With these apps, you will be able to explore London and take good care of yourself during your university years without damaging your finances!
