Get Extra!

An NUS Extra card will be like gold to you, because being at university is all about making the most out of student life, and getting yourself a card exclusively for students is the best way to milk it!

How much is Extra?

The card costs just £10 and is valid until 30^th September 2008. You may wonder why you should pay for money off, but the truth is that there are so many offers exclusive to NUS Extra cardholders that you can save an estimated £281 per year…that’s nearly £1000 by the time you finish your degree!

What’s Extra this year?

“NUS is working hard to ensure we meet the needs of students today. Students told us last year that they wanted discounts on basic essential everyday items such as toiletries and food, so this year NUS is proud to introduce Subway, Superdrug and McDonalds to the list of NUS Extra discounts,” says NUS President Gemma Tumelty.

Not only do cardholders get more exclusive discounts than you can count, but there are also “money can’t buy” offers and competitions on everything from exclusive NME interviews to watching the MOBO Awards from the Executive Producer’s box!

As if that’s not enough, the NUS Extra card has an integrated International Student Identification Card (ISIC - £9 when bought separately), so don’t forget to take it with you to access benefits worldwide with over 37,000 discounts in over 116 countries.

Where can you use Extra?

Between calling home and keeping in touch with all your new friends to arrange nights out, student phone bills can get expensive, but not with the Extra card and the exclusive deals you’ll get with BT and dot Mobile.

Make sure you have your card at hand for exclusive discounts at Office, Superdrug, Burton, Cecil Gee and many more stores, or save your feet the hassle of walking up and down the high street by getting some great Extra deals at CD Wow and JJB online.

With all the savings you’ll make, there will be plenty of money left for that long reading list you’re bound to get for your course. On Amazon.co.uk your NUS Extra card will save you some precious pounds on all the books you will ever need, leaving you some spare cash for a bite to eat.
