Thank god you don't have £100...
+1 for headphones.
Bare in mind that there are lots of people mentioning a drop in manufacturing quality (poor materials etc) relating to the NS1000s.
You could look out for a pair of used but good condition Sennheiser HD 600s, which are superior headphones (if open-backed, so bare that in mind if you want to be isolated from the sounds of your environment, plus they'll be at the top end of your budget). They generally fare better with an amp though, and I'm not sure how (unamped) they'd compare with the NS1000s when they're run off batterys.

Do actually have some xmas money left, so may actually be doing so...what be wrong with fluffy spiders?
I managed to pick up some Beyer Dynamic DT770 Premiums for £99, much better than the NS1000s.
Well they are, £ for £ anyway. My Speaker set up is similar sounding to the DT770s, maybe a tiny bit better and it costs about £700.

Come back when you have £10k, then we'll talk. How to spend £100 is a bit of a joke really.
Put it against your student fees or as a rainy day fund.
