Not-for-profit (NFP) organization Meld Magazine has launched the Little Orange Book of Big Discounts, a new discount booklet especially targeted towards students, tourists, backpackers and canny city dwellers looking to experience all that Melbourne has to offer, on a budget.

If you reckon a fun night out includes spending BIG, the Little Orange Book is here to save the day! 

For just $25, the new discount booklet contains some 100 vouchers representing $1000 worth of offers. None of the businesses featured in this book have paid to be included.

Established since 2008, Meld Magazine is a Melbourne-based NFP media outlet serving international students in Australia. Run entirely by volunteers, the organisation also provides mentoring and work experience opportunities for both local and international students across various disciplines. 

While The Little Orange Book is not targeted exclusively at students, a small number of vouchers are valid only for those with a Student ID and is explained clearly in the voucher’s terms and conditions. So if you have a Student ID, all the more reason to get your nifty hands on this book ASAP!

If that still doesn’t get you all excited, here are some of the BIG names with cool deals featured in the book.

The Little Orange Book is not all about savings. As a not-for-profit organisation, proceeds from every purchase will help support Meld Magazine and other similar not-for-profit organisations and student groups in Melbourne.

Meld Magazine founder Karen Poh believes the book is a valuable resource for those looking to make the most of their time here in Melbourne.

“It’s a great starting point for those who want to explore more of Melbourne but are wary of blowing their budget,” she says.

“It’s also something nifty you can pull out of your bag when you’re out of ideas as to where to go for lunch, dinner or just a coffee.”

With so much jam-packed in one small booklet, now everyone can explore and discover Melbourne on a budget. The Little Orange Book can be purchased online at http://bit.ly/orangebk for $25 with free shipping!
