I probably don’t save any money in the end though as I usually buy more things because I’m so pleased to have got a bargain! In some shops you can get as much as 70% off if you go at the right time. I love shopping but I also enjoy buying things that are good value for money so I always wait until the sales are on. No-one makes any money so it really is a good exchange. Basically, if you have something you don’t want any more, you advertise it on the freecycle website and then anyone who wants it must agree to come and collect it. When I arrived I didn’t have any furniture but someone told me about the ‘freecycle’ scheme and I’ve managed to get almost everything I need without spending any money. It’s amazing how much you can save that way. I always go shopping at the end of the day when a lot of food is reduced because it has reached its sell-by date. Even then it’s hard but if you shop around, you really can find some good bargains. I have a part-time job during term time and then work full-time during the holidays. I’m a student so I really can’t afford to waste money. Read these money saving ideas on a web forum and answer the questions.
