I'm buying copies of this book as the perfect gift for college-bound H.S. students, recent H.S. grads, and students already in college. Freebies are listed, as well as places where you can get sizable discounts on just about anything. I always knew that discounts were available with a student I.D. card, but had no idea how many places accepted it. This book tells you about all of them. The format is easy to follow, and the author's tone is friendly and conversational. She really knows her stuff!
great for students, even better for parents

I gave this to my daughter before she left to start sophomore year at college; I earmarked pages where she can book her plane tickets back home for Thanksgiving at a student rate, where she can get cheap textbooks and so on. This is a great guide for her, but even better for ME since I am paying her tuition costs which are getting higher, and am always looking for ways to trim the fat.
