‘I save £1,800 a year as a student with these money-saving hacks’
A savvy student has revealed how she saves £1,800 a year including paying herself “pay packets” to stop overspending.
Emma Cutler, 21, has adopted some cost-saving measures to “plan for the future” and ease the burden of university costs.
She gets three £3,000 student loan payments a year - and separates the money into pay packets when it drops into her bank account.
