The membership then gives you an additional 10% off Textbooks.<\/p>\n<p>If you love to visit a proper book shop, then head to Waterstones or Blackwell\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>Blackwell\u2019s offer a <a href=\"https:\/\/blackwells.co.uk\/bookshop\/Students\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">student price match guarantee<\/a>, where they\u2019ll match the price if you find them cheaper at Waterstones, Amazon, or WHSmith.<\/p>\n<p>For certain universities including Exeter, Bristol, Huddersfield and Sheffield Blackstone\u2019s offer book bundle for your course.<\/p>\n<p>While Waterstone\u2019s may not be the cheapest, their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.waterstones.com\/students\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Student Plus rewards card<\/a>\u00a0can make shopping at Waterstones\u2019s cheaper in the long run. You get a stamp for every \u00a310 you spend. For every 10 stamps, you get \u00a310 added to your Plus balance, which can then be redeemed in-store or online. And with the student card you get an additional 5% off in their shops, cafes and online on every transaction you make. You can also get 10% off with UniDays online but you can\u2019t combine the two discounts, which is a bit meh!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16411\" src=\"https:\/\/host-students.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Digital-instead-of-paper.png\" alt=\"Digital instead of paper\" width=\"1440\" height=\"550\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Digital instead of paper. <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Amazon has the bulk of textbooks as Kindle Editions which can be a fair few quid cheaper for example a Marketing textbook is \u00a352 in paperback but \u00a339 on Kindle.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16416\" src=\"https:\/\/host-students.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Share-Textbooks-with-flat-or-course-mates.png\" alt=\"Share Textbooks with flat or course mates\" width=\"1440\" height=\"550\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Share Textbooks with flat or course mates. <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sharing a flat with a course mate?
