Reducing your food shopping bill
Consider with your friends or housemates how you might be able to save money by batch cooking to reduce waste food or organising a regular supermarket shop together so you can share popular items such as milk, bread, pasta and rice.
If you are on campus you can get hot water from any university outlet free of charge – just bring along your reusable cup.

Travel
A student bus pass is the cheapest way to travel and some routes are subsidised by the University to reduce the cost even further.
If you own a bike you can use our free cycle pods across campus to securely store your bike whilst you are in classes or visiting campus. You simply need to register your access card. You can also hire bikes for a term or for the full academic year. Visit the Liverpool Guild of Students webpages for more details.
Fuel prices are rising rapidly, so unless it is absolutely necessary avoid running a car. Campus is very accessible from the popular student residential areas, our halls and the city centre by walking, cycling, or via public transport.
