    E07 - Freshers’ week special
    Sep 12 2018
    Whether you’re willing to admit it or not, everyone’s nervous about starting uni. To help you make the most of it, we decided to get in the recording studio (spoiler: it’s just our office) and share our top tips for freshers’ week. We start by discussing our own freshers’ week experiences (translation: here’s what went wrong for us). We say it a few times during the podcast, but it’s worth repeating once more - freshers’ week doesn’t have to be the insane seven-day party that everyone makes it out to be! Nonetheless, it’s worth taking some steps to help make your freshers’ week into the amazing experience that you deserve. We run through our top 10 tips for surviving freshers’ week and then take a listen to what you - yes, YOU - said you wish you’d known before starting uni. From getting romantically involved with flatmates to the price of dairy products, you really covered all the bases! Probably the scariest thing about starting uni is making friends, and no freshers’ podcast would be complete without some hints and tips on how to find some mates. If you’ve listened before you’ll know what Jess and Tom are like, and you’ll know that if they were able to make friends at uni, anyone can! If you’re moving away for university, then you’ll have to get to grips with your new flatmates too. Worry not, as Jess and Tom share their tips on surviving shared living. Things get a bit heated as they delve into the housemate habits that annoy them the most, but it spawns some great advice on how to behave if you want a harmonious household. Finally, our resident Student Money Expert, Jake, is back by popular(ish) demand to share some of his pearls of wisdom on budgeting for uni life. He very much seems to have learned from his mistakes, as his story of an extravagant freshers’ purchase can testify.

If you have any burning questions about how to save money at university, or have any feedback on the show, we’d love to hear from you! Hope you enjoy the show!

    E06 - Ballin on a budget
    Jun 14 2018
    Nights out are one of the biggest student loan killers, so to end the first series of No More Beans we thought we’d discuss how you can still be a baller on a budget. From pricey end of term balls to messy nights out, we tackle some of the biggest expenses you face as a student, and share our tried and tested methods for saving cash. We reveal why a pasty pitstop is the night out lifesaver you never knew you needed, and how you can get cheaper entry into clubs. We then try our hand at making some interesting budget cocktails. Ever tried a Jammie Dodger shot before? You probably won’t want to after listening to this. Plus, we rustle up a Cheeky Vimto and Fluffy Duck to get the party going. Things take a bit of a weird turn when we give drinking game app Picolo a go. Was Jess bitten by a tortoise? Which Justin Bieber song is Jake a secret fan of? All this plus more will be revealed when we give it a whirl. In our final Money Confessions of the series, we reveal our most expensive nights out. If you’ve ever woken up to realise you’ve spent a bit too much money the night before, you’re definitely not alone. Plus, Jake talks about why running was his choice of transport on a night out, and Jess reveals why she took a blanket to the club.

    E05 - Cheap holiday hacks
    Jun 7 2018
    Travelling is what a lot of us live for, but we all know how frustratingly expensive it can be. So this week we’ve dedicated a whole show to saving money on holidays - whether it’s the flights, accommodation or activities, this episode is full to the brim with top tips that you’ll want to make a note of. We’re joined by the wonderful Chelsea Dickenson (also known as Chelsea Travel), who recently completed a challenge where she went on 10 ( yes, 10!) holidays in a year for half of the average Brit’s holiday spend. She jetted off to Dubai, Miami, Denmark, Spain and more for just £1,700! What’s her secret? Well it turns out there’s lots of them, and they’re all in this week’s show. Chelsea lets us in on the best methods for finding cheap flights and accommodation - from apps, Facebook groups and pet sitting sites. Tune in to find out how she managed to get two week’s free accommodation in Paris, and a stay in an Emmy-award winner’s multi-million pound apartment in Miami. To say we’re jealous is an understatement. We’ll also be discussing our best tactics for getting hotel upgrades and sharing some of our funniest holiday stories. Cheap flights and hotels are great, but sometimes it doesn’t always go to plan… Access the show notes on https://www.savethestudent.org/podcast Don’t forget, you can share your own stories and money problems by sending us a voice message on WhatsApp (just head to savethestudent.org/whatsapp to join the group), tweeting us at @savethestudent or emailing us at podcast@savethestudent.org.
