It’s tough being a student these days, and we know how that feels because we have been through that! Yet, fret not, because besides the lectures and never-ending assignments, here are some sweet deals that you can enjoy – all because you are a student!
Food deals
Ah, food – for all students, it’s the ‘source of life’ after the long hours of lessons. While canteens are the most accessible and the cheapest for food and drinks, fortunately though, we aren’t going to talk about them, because you guys would already know, wouldn’t you? If you have been reading our Munchy Mondays regularly, you would know how some of cafes and restaurants have special deals, just for you guys! Check out places near your schools, such as Maki-San, cafes in schools or along Arab street such as Working Title and save on those cents while having your fill!
Entertainment deals
For those of you who happen to have really short timetables and don’t want to head home too soon as you hope to maximise your time out, how about getting some R&R (rest and relax) for cheap? Most universities have lounges where you can have some fun – take for example SIM’s which boast pool tables and PS4 at a corner of the school – which you can take full advantage of for free or a small fee. If you want out from your school though, how about catching a movie? Compared to the weekend prices of $13 for a single ticket, some movie theatres offer a discounted rate of $7 – $8 for shows before 5pm.
Shopping deals
Once you are out of Secondary or JC, dressing up can be a chore (or a pleasure) since you no longer have to rely on uniforms. Yet, having to coordinate your style means you would have to shop often for your apparel. While online shopping is a breeze, there are those who prefer brick and mortar shops, and for most of us, we know that Bugis Street offer affordable buys – from bags to accessories, the easily accessible location is a one-stop location for all our needs. Yet, if you want even more choices and international brand names, how about considering clothing stores such as Forever 21, Topshop and Topman? For the latter two, flash your student ID to enjoy 10% off!
Sports + Activities deals
It can be quite dull just simply having a gathering with friends over food. For some team bonding, how about considering an escape room challenge or even a sporting activitiy? Gather your friends to join you as SCAPE’s Trapped offers tickets as low as $18 for one for you to get into the problem solving challenge together with your friends. And if that is not your challenge, how about considering picking up a new sport such as ice skating? Offering concession passes especially for students starting from $100 which are valid for 3 months, The Rink in JCube could be just the deal for those of you in the West or for those who want to escape the heat these months!
