1. There is a general reduction on some season tickets for those under 26, but no student reduction as far as I can see. Check out zvv.ch for details and fares, or ask your school/university.
2. Check out comparis.ch to find out which insurance company offers the best price for you. Take in mind that conditions for basic (mandatory) insurance are the same for all companies.
3. The big mobile phone companies are Swisscom, Orange and Sunrise. You'll find info on prices on their websites. Sunrise tends to be the cheapest one.
4. As much as you want to spend. Eating out at noon can be cheaper than during the evenings, because many restaurants have one or two set menus for lunch. They usually start at 15-20 CHF. During the evening, such set menus are not offered (or at a higher price).

Hope this helps,
Twan.
