If you are enrolled in college and have a .edu address so you can verify your enrollment then you can sign up for a new program called Amazon Student.
This is a great deal because it does not cost anything, includes discounts and special deals that you will be told about via email and offers Amazon Prime two day shipping free for a year. That last one alone is worth $79.
I think college students tend to like things that are free right?
Eligibility and Sign-Up
Only students currently enrolled in a college or university who have a valid .edu e-mail address to confirm their status are eligible to participate in Amazon Student. See additional conditions at Amazon Student Terms & Conditions for more details.
To sign up, visit the Amazon Student sign-up page. Once you submit the sign-up form, you’ll receive an e-mail at your .edu e-mail address to confirm the address is valid; click the verification link in that e-mail to complete the sign-up process.
If your .edu e-mail address isn’t listed on your Amazon.com account, that’s OK. The only e-mail we’ll send to your .edu e-mail address is the verification e-mail. After that, other Amazon Student e-mails will be sent to the e-mail address listed on your Amazon.com account.

This is awesome…I wonder what they would do with students (like myself) who have Amazon Prime already…nevertheless this is an awesome program that every student should take advantage of, the Prime itself is worth it.
