Shopping in Cardiff is a student's delight! With the exciting St David's - Dewi Sant shopping centre offering huge high street brands such as John Lewis, Hollister, Cult and Cath Kidson...no wonder it's been named 6th best shopping destination in the UK.

Running parallel to St David's, there's the beautiful and charming Edwardian and Victorian arcades, offering delightful boutique stores and shabby chic shops that provide a break from studying. The city's historic arcades are one of the best places to find vintage stores - in particular High Street Arcade. Morgan Arcade is also home to a number of vintage shops as well as the Oxfam Boutique store, which is one of only 7 in the UK. Take a look at the historic arcades here.

Also, bang in the middle of the city centre you can shop for a whole range of fruit, vegetables, fish and meat from the indoor Cardiff market which will help keep your cupboards filled for longer. You'll also find lots of other bargain nick nacks here, ranging from pots and pans, to fabric and haberdashery.

For exclusive discounts and special student offers, don't miss the St David's student lock-in. This evening event attracts thousands of students to the city centre to shop the night away, providing one-night only discounts and goody bags for all.
