For traveling to University the best way is to buy a bike or monthly ticket for trains and buses. For everyday shopping: Netto and Fakta.

Hmm, I think that in Denmark we have to pay a crazy VAT of 25% and an incoming tax of 30-40% even for parttime job. A high tax rate implies a good social benefit at the retirement time. But, I am sorry this is only good for the local residents. We are internal students and will leave Denmark eventually. Vituarly we pay the budden for nothing.

I am very surprise at the way we buy the travelling time rather that buy the ticket by trips. Once I miscalculated the number of traffic zones and was fined 500 DKK.
Tips:
Cook yourself. Bring the food and drink with you even to lecture hall so you do not have to go to cafeteria during the resting time. And always buy goods at Netto.

There are jobs as teaching assistants and the pay is very good. It is very hard to find a student job outside university - if you don't speak Danish.

because things are more expensive in Denmark than in Sweden. The telephone cost was maximized because of a boyfriend in Sweden. Travel was expensive since I lived far away from school.

In all shops there are special offers in each week. Use them to save money. You can save a lot doing this.
