Get a railcard

How much do you spend on train tickets every year? I’d guess for about half of students, it’s more than £70 a year. If it is, and you’re under 25, get a 16-25 railcard. It’s £24 for the whole year and you get 1/3 off all your train travel. So if you spend £72 per year on train tickets, but you spend £24 to save 1/3 of your fares, then you break even. If you spend any more than that, which you very well might do, then you’d be stupid not to get a railcard. Spend money to save money in the long run.

Luckily I get mine free with my Natwest student account. Yay for free perks.
