Hi everyone,

Just need some advice as to which of the dazzling array of discount cards it would be worth buying! We are going to S America, NZ, Oz and S Africa - I guess some cards will be more useful in some countries than others. Is it worth getting an International Student or Youth card - what kind (and amount) of discounts do you get with this? Is it worth getting a Hostel Association card - are there many hostels that this can be used for? I have also heard that a VIP card would be good - especially in NZ and Oz? Any advice would be v. welcome as there is not much practical info I have been able to find on this subject from the web - they are all trying to sell me aforesaid discount cards! Thanks guys!
