Compiled from student responses to the Money Saving Tips contest (brought to you by
StudentAwards in partnership with Scotiabank, April to June 2011).To learn more about how you can Fund Your Future, visit www.fundyourfuture.ca.

In order to save money here are some tips I use: instead of staying in all of the time you can try watching a DVD you own that you haven’t seen in a long time. You can also rent from a library or from Netflix, which are a lot less than going out to the movies. If you want to go out to a theater, go to the matinee. If you want to go to a concert, wait to buy your tickets, the last minute tickets are usually sold at cheaper prices. Lastly, instead of going out for dinner, try cooking a meal and having a few friends over. You can turn it in to a game night and then not only will it be cheap, but fun too. (more…)

DRM-FREE

eMusic

When it comes to promotions, eMusic offers one of the best we’ve seen. It gives new members 50 free music downloads just for signing up. If you decide to stay, the site offers three subscription plans ranging from $9.99/month for 30 downloads a month to $19.99/month for 75 songs a month. If you typically buy 11 or more songs per month from iTunes, you’re already saving money with eMusic. What we particularly like about eMusic is that its tracks are DRM-free (no Digital Rights Management), meaning once purchased they’re yours to keep and they’ll work on any device from an iPod to a Zune. What’s the catch? Most of eMusic’s contracts are with independent record labels. The “big four” — EMI, Universal, Warner Music, and Sony BMG — are not all represented, so eMusic’s catalogue relies heavily on indie rock, jazz, and classical music. In other words, you might not find the latest 50 Cent single, but you will find Johnny Cash, Miles Davis, The Pixies, and more. eMusic also has a lot of editorial content, such as columns and editors’ picks that make the site more than just a place to download tracks from.
