Work on Friday or Saturday nights By working a shift at the weekend, you then become less likely to need to go out yourself.
Having to be at work is always a much better excuse to your friends than claiming that you are going to try and study on a Saturday night, and drinks are usually much cheaper during the week anyway!
Work in a bar or restaurant
Depending on whether food or drink seems to be your biggest budget eater, by working in a catering establishment, you may find that a certain amount of free food or drink is included as part of your shift allowance. Pizza restaurants can be particularly good, as you may be able to stock up using the salad bar.
An additional bonus of working in a restaurant, especially in popular tourist locations such as Edinburgh, Bath, Oxford or London, is that your paltry part-time income may be supplemented by tips from the occasional generous punter.
