    I would LOVE another student card - I use mine all the time, at the cinema, restaurants, shopping - and soon I would have been using mine for xmas gifts !
    I would definately pay £25 for a 3 year one if I was given the chance. I prob use my current one once a week, which expires in September I think.

    If I could order one I would, but I don't want to risk getting in trouble as I'm no longer a student - and their T&C obviously state you have to be one ! lol.

    lol... I keep forgetting about mine.. I'm not used to getting discounts! :p
    MUST get into the habit!

    did they stop doing a graduate card? I'm sure NUS used to do a graduate card when you left and that didn't get you half the deals a standard NUS card did - worth bearing in mind in case you pay your subs and then they send you one of those!

    I didn't know that you could buy one for 3 years - might look into that.. saves renewing!
    I'm sure I'll have a lot on and might forget.
