John Moores students buy the the cheapest wine in the country

My head


After a long week of uni there’s nothing better than going into your local and finding out that your uni sells the cheapest bottle of wine in the country. But that’s what you get when you go to uni in Liverpool. This is vital knowledge when getting ready for a dirty night out at The Raz and preparing to be squeezed by Purple Aki – getting more for your money is what we’re good at, no wonder we have a drinking problem.

Good news then that at JMU we buy the second cheapest wine in the country. MyVoucherCodes.co.uk, an online discount site, has created a University Price Index to help students to see if their university gives them value for money when buying a pint of beer.

The cheapest bottles are sold at Liverpool and Liverpool John Moores at £5.50 with Cardiff a close second at £5.75. This is well below the average price of a bottle at these different universities which is £6.93. Kings, UWE, Bristol and UCL of course offer the most expensive bottle of wine at £8.00 further highlighting how the North really is the best.
