Whether that's shopping, sleeping in, or taking a trip to the pub with your friends, the options are endless.

But enjoying your social life on the student budget can be a tough challenge to tackle.

Now there's a way for students across the UK to save money and still venture out and have a good time.

Wetherspoons brings back student voucher booklet

For any veteran students, the Wetherspoons voucher booklet might not be anything new to you.

But for new freshers, the booklet means you can save big on a whole range of food, soft and alcoholic drinks at a local Wetherspoons chain.

The booklets offer 84 vouchers on food and drinks, including deals on breakfast, main meals, pitchers, shots, pints, soft drinks and much more.

Available across all of the UK and Ireland, the voucher booklets are being distributed by 375 pubs across the two nations.

If you fancy saving some money at the start of the new school year, all you need to do is ask a member of staff at your local Wetherspoons for the booklet.

But you will need a valid student ID to prove that you are eligible to get the bargain discounts.

The deals run from now all the way until Halloween on October 31.
