Totum card

[PyjamaFan]

Hello fellow students.

Just thought I'd let people know about the Totum card - although I'm sure many of you know already!

It's the equivalent of the old NUS cards. You have to pay for it, around £16 for a year, and then you can use it to get discounts.

So far I've only used mine to get 10% off in the Cooperative supermarket, but lots of other companies are included too.

It can also be used as a proof of age card, but being 46 I don't get asked for ID very often anymore.

They're great aren't they? I have a pro one linked to professional study and have just renewed for 3 years. I use it all over the place but the co op one is especially useful.

Thanks for this, I was wondering what happened to the NUS cards. I'll go and have a look now.

I didn't bother with that one as it cost money.

I got access to Student beans to give me lots of discounts.

Boots and Superdrug are the main ones i use (and Rymans). but thats mostly show your Student ID in store. And i love Student Amazon Prime which is normal prime with 50% off. My partner gets cheap Spotify off my account.

Don't forget your council tax discounts!

Unidays as well

Why do I only ever find out about things immediately after they might be of use to me? I had no idea of Student Amazon Prime, either.

Worth a bump for other heedless souls.
