Students Can Get The Tears Of The Kingdom Switch OLED For £288
Save 10% on this special edition console.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is less than a month away now, releasing on 12th May 2023, and with it Nintendo is also releasing a new Switch OLED console that has a special design influenced by the Breath of the Wild sequel.
These special edition Switch consoles are well sought-after, and can come with a slightly higher price tag than their normal counterparts. They tend to sell out quickly once orders go live as well.
However, if you're a student then you have the opportunity to pre-order the new Tears of the Kingdom Switch OLED for 10 per cent less than its RRP thanks to a discount code available from StudentBeans.
To get the discount, you'll need to be a student with a StudentBeans account (or know someone with one). Once you're signed in head to the My Nintendo Store section on StudentBeans, and choose the 10% student discount to get your individual code.
Once you've done that just put the code in at checkout when you go to buy the Tears of the Kingdom Switch OLED and the price will go down to £288!
Remember that you're only buying the console, so if you want to play Tears of the Kingdom on the new console you'll have to purchase it separately. You can find out where to pre-order Tears of the Kingdom on our pre-order page.
The special console has different designs on all parts, including the Hylian Crest from the Legend of Zelda series on the front of the dock as well as white-and-gold joy con controllers.
If you're not a student with access to StudentBeans, but have your eye on this special Switch OLED then be sure to follow us over on the Jelly Deals Twitter page where we'll let you know if it goes on sale for everyone.

Best Student Discounts, Deals And Freebies Of 2023
Life as a college student is tough, not just mentally and emotionally but (especially) financially. As someone who's barely a year out of college and ate nothing but croutons and cereal for a week to avoid grocery shopping, I can attest to this. Luckily, one financial burden I didn't have was paying outrageous fees for streaming services such as Spotify and Hulu thanks to their student discounts.
Trying to find student discounts used to be a struggle, but times have changed. Many companies now recognize the financial strain on college students and offer student discounts to help ease these difficulties -- and hopefully get a customer for life in the process. You just have to verify your student status. For example, with a valid .Edu school email address or proof of enrollment (via a validation service such as SheerID or Unidays), you can score the best student discounts on Microsoft Office, Spotify and Hulu subscriptions and even Amazon Prime.
In this article, we've rounded up all the best student discount opportunities. Be sure to check with your school's housing department and student bookstore as well, where you might find certain streaming services for free or cheap. You can also find extra discounts on devices and software. For more information, see the best free apps for college students who need to save money and time. Plus, the best student credit cards.

Student discounts on fitness and entertainmentThese popular music and video streaming services give you breaks on subscriptions once you verify your student status. And Peloton just got in on the act as well.
EngadgetDying to watch the iCarly reboot but can't afford Paramount Plus?
College students no longer need to worry about that. Paramount Plus offers all college students 25% off a Paramount Plus subscription, bringing the bill down from $5 a month to $4. All you have to do is verify your student status before signing up for a subscription.
Saving a buck a month, your only worry will be whether to watch Big Brother or Big Time Rush.
César Salza/CNETYou don't need a Peloton bike in order to take Peloton classes, which include not only cycling, but also HIIT, running, strength training, yoga and more. The Peloton app offers all that via phone, tablet and most streaming devices.
The regular subscription price is $14 a month; verified students with a valid college ID can get it for half that. Additionally, you get the first month free if you've never tried Peloton before.
AppleApple's streaming service is already fairly affordable at $5 a month, but if you're a full time student, you can sign up for a student subscription (see below), you'll get Apple TV Plus at no extra charge. Students can also get Spotify, Hulu and Showtime bundled together for $5 a month, as described below. Decisions, decisions!
Apple/Screenshot by Jessica Dolcourt/CNETIn addition to hardware discounts (see below), Apple offers its Music subscription service at half price for students for up to 48 months. That subscription nets you access to some 50 million songs and it's accessible on all your Apple devices. You also get Apple TV Plus.
YouTubeNormally $12 a month, YouTube Premium is a two-fer: You get ad-free YouTube videos (including the option to download them for offline viewing) and unlimited access to YouTube Music for just $7 a month.
Just want YouTube Music? That service is $5 a month for students (regularly $10). Both options allow for a free one-month trial if you want to test the waters first.
AmazonNot to be confused with the Prime Music benefit, which is included with an Amazon Prime subscription, or Prime Student, which you can read about below. Music Unlimited is Amazon's full-on, massive-library music service, which rivals the likes of Apple Music and Spotify. Anyone who has a student subscription can get Music Unlimited for just $1 a month -- by far the cheapest music-streaming option anywhere.
Angela Lang/CNETArguably the best student deal in the history of student deals, Spotify Premium offers a $5 ad-free plan that includes both Hulu (ad-supported) and Showtime. Nonstudents pay a minimum of $10, $6 and $11 a month, for a grand total of $27. That's an awful lot of entertainment for $5.
If you already have a premium account, it's easy enough to convert to the student version. If you're part of a family plan, however, check if it would be cheaper for the family to keep you on the $15 plan.
Just want Hulu? Keep reading.
HuluIf you don't need or want Spotify or Showtime, Hulu proper now offers a dirt-cheap deal for students: Just $2 monthly for the standard plan (meaning with commercials), $5 off the regular price.
As with most any discounted membership, you just need to prove your eligibility with a valid student ID. Thankfully, this offer is good even if you're already a Hulu subscriber. It's not just for newcomers.
The Wall Street JournalKeeping up with the news as a college student can be particularly challenging as online newspapers begin to up their subscription prices and print newspapers go out of business. If you want to stay in touch with what's happening in the world but don't want to pay outrageous subscription prices, The Wall Street Journal has the package for you.
For $4 a month full-time students can gain unlimited access to all articles and podcasts on The Wall Street Journal website. Prefer to read a physical newspaper? The WSJ also offers a Student Digital and Print Pack for $10 a month.
Student discounts on educationNeed help studying? Here are some of the best sources to help with learning, writing papers and acing the test.
QuizletChances are, most college students have used Quizlet once or twice to help out with a study guide. Quizlet makes it easy for students to study using flash cards, practice exams and more. Even better, you can look at flash cards made by other users to help with your studying.
Quizlet Plus provides expert solutions to complicated problems and enhanced studying techniques. After your first free trial week, Quizlet Plus offers two payment options: annual payments of $36 or monthly payments of $8.
AppleChegg stands out as a college favorite for homework help, writing assistance and exam prep. Additionally, Chegg offers students the opportunity to buy new and used textbooks as well as a platform to sell them.
Chegg subscriptions start at $16 per month, but students can receive a 25% discount off their first month subscription through Student Beans.
Need more convincing? All Chegg Premium members can also receive a free Calm App subscription.
Student discounts on money managementIf there's one thing most students could use a hand with, it's managing money.
You Need a BudgetYou Need a Budget offers a wealth of tools and classes to that end. It normally costs $84 a year, but as a student you can get the first year absolutely free. But be warned, unlike a lot of other digital services the only way you get this discount is by submitting physical proof of enrollment to the company.
James Martin/CNETFinancial institutions may offer student deals as well. Bank of America, for example, will waive monthly fees if you do all your banking through its banking app and ATMs.
Wells FargoWells Fargo offers a similar deal to Bank of America's and will waive monthly fees for students 17 to 24 years old.
Student discounts on apps and softwareWhile you may be able to get software at a discount through your school's bookstore, you won't do any better than free.
MicrosoftMicrosoft sells Office Home & Student for $149. But you can do better than that with the free Office 365 Education, which gives you access to the online versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Microsoft Teams (the latter potentially useful for organizing and executing group projects) and other Office apps for free. All that's required is a valid school email address.
EvernoteEvernote gives students 40% off the professional version for a year. That works out to $6 a month for industrial-strength note-taking. After that first year, however, the price goes back to the regular $11 monthly.
Student discounts on shopping and techFrom Amazon to Groupon, you can save up to 50% on services and devices.

GrouponGroupon's program affords college students an extra 25% off food, drink, activity and other local deals. That's for the first six months. After that, you save 15% for as long as you remain an eligible student.
