We all know that with moving away from home comes new challenges such as learning to cook, budgeting and planning meals. With the catered package at Vine Court, you can wave goodbye to grocery shopping and dishes but you'll need to budget your weekly allowance.
With a new routine to adjust to, we want to make meal times as easy as possible. Here are some tips to making the most of your catered package...
Earn while you spend with Loyalty Plus
As a catered resident you'll earn while you spend with the Loyalty Plus app including 10% off all purchases and your 9th hot drink FREE!
Look out for monthly deals exclusively for Loyalty Plus users - follow @livunifood on Instagram for the latest deals and offers 👀
💡Top tip! Download Loyalty Plus before you arrive to Liverpool so that you can start gaining points right away
Bring a reusable bottle or cup with you
Spend wisely! To get the most out of your credit you might want to consider using your allowance for food, rather than drinks. Bring your own drinks to lectures or bring your reusable water bottle to fill up for free around campus.
If you do buy a hot drink on campus, bring your reusable cup for 25p off!
Plan ahead
Ahead of the new week starting, think about how you can best use that daily allowance. Let's say you've joined a sports team and you've got a big game coming up one evening, maybe you'd want to use your credit towards a bigger meal in the afternoon and eat something at home for breakfast such as cereal or toast.
Looking for something to fill you up? We love a Guild burrito in the courtyard! They're super tasty and you can pick all your favourite fillings 😍
Check your balance
Keep an eye on what you're spending via the Loyalty Plus app as this will help you decide on your best options!
Not around campus one week? Your credit will roll over into the following week so be sure to check your balance on Loyalty Plus and use it up (it won't be refunded)!
