Brisbane shopping guide for Students on a budget

If you’re like most students, leaving the study desk, heading to the shops to check out the latest fashion and grab a bargain is a must-do!! And you should feel lucky; living is Brisbane was a wise choice! As a student you don’t always have the largest budget to go blow away on clothes, shoes and random accessories, but that’s alright we’ve picked out some fantastic shopping spots that offer great bargains.

For starters there is Stones Corner, which is located between Wooloongabba and Coorparoo and it’s a bargain hunter’s haven for brand-name factory outlets! Plus it’s only a 10 minute bus ride from the CBD.

Next stop is Trade Secret, it offers an amazing range of fashion with up to 60% off the retail price! The bonus with Trade Secret is that you can choose from 4 different locations Alexandra Hills, Chermside, Macgregor and Browns Plains!

If you’re still struggling on finding that perfect bargain, then stick to what you know best the DFO!! You’re lucky to be a student living in Brisbane when you consider that there is not one, but two DFO’s to choose from! Make sure to check out DFO at Brisbane Airport & the DFO at Jindalee, where you are sure to pick up just what you’re looking for and at an amazing price!

And remember, just because you’re a student doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun shopping, just know the right places, pick the best bargains and have a great time all while sticking to your budget! If you have any more exciting tips for shopping on a budget in Brisbane, post a comment to share with your fellow struggling students!

Why not check out the Brisbane Frock Exchange on the 6th of February. Pick up a bargain or three at this pre-loved fashion market. Located at West End, it's only a short trip from Urbanest. what's more, it's situated smack bang in the middle of the West End green markets, so you can pick up some cheap fresh fruit and veges at the same time!
