Menna Jones writes a review on the St David’s centre student lock-in

I am a sucker for a bargain so it would have been mad of me not to take advantage of the biggest shopping event to hit Cardiff. And whatÔÇÖs best, itÔÇÖs exclusive to us students. ÔÇÿSt DavidÔÇÖs Student Lock InÔÇÖ was back for its third year and it seemed to be bigger and better than ever, attracting over 20,000 students. With the majority of stores offering up to 25% off, it was a great way to breathe new life into the student wardrobe without dipping into the dreaded overdraft.

If you had your eye on that irresistible pair of shoes or this seasonÔÇÖs must-have studded boots then it was the time to spend, spend, spend! Students poured in left, right and centre, so, next time make sure you plan your purchases well in advance. It is certainly an annual bookmark for your fashion calendar that allows you to give into your inner fashionista and indulge in some discounted retail therapy.
