    • We suggest buying groceries that cost around £200/month and cooking your own meals. 

    • Shop at grocery stores such as Aldi, Lidl, and IGA, as they often have lower prices than larger supermarkets.

  • Transportation: AU$50-AU$70/month on average
    • Get an Opal Card:  it offers discounts and capped fares for students.
    • Buy a new bike for AU$300, easily available for students, which is equal to one month's rent and will benefit you for the entire year.
