Personal comments
Not really, but before going shopping, it's good to study the prices. For groceries store, let's go to Netto or Aldi.
Choose cleverly the place to go out because some of them are free somme of the nights of the week. e.g. Vega for disco on Fridays and Saturdays. Student House on Wednesday evening

Personal comments
Living close to the uni was great. At any time you can visit the other students in nearby houses or "the containers" (the infamous on-campus accommodation) or go to the computer labs where there are always some people you know. You can ride your bike everywhere, even to Copenhagen but most people just ride to the train station.

Final comments
Take Copenhagen as a base for exploration. Norway, Sweden and Denmark are full of treasures.
And living abroad makes you evolve a lot, too bad if you miss that kind of experience.
