This is an amazing deal if you're in St. Paul (unfortunately I'm out of town Saturday, or I would be all over it).
Minnesota’s 529 College Savings Plan is celebrating 10 years of helping families save for college with a celebration Saturday, September 24 at the Science Museum of Minnesota, 120 W. Kellogg, St. Paul from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Not only will there by discounted admission for only $5.29 with the MN Saves coupon, but there will also be music and entertainment by Radio Disney, and giveaways hosted by MN College Savings Plan, Minnesota Parent and Early Childhood Family Education.
Since September 2001, Minnesota’s 529 College Savings Plan has helped over 31,000 families save close to $850 million toward college (as of Sept.16, 2011). “We’re pleased with the growth of the Plan and the commitment from our account owners in continuing to invest during tough economic times," stated Renee Hill, program manager for the Minnesota College Savings Plan. “A family using the coupon for the 10 year birthday event at the Science Museum could save enough to start a Minnesota College Savings Plan account."
Parents, relatives, and friends can start an account for a minimum of only $25. Any earnings can grow free from state and federal taxes, and withdrawals are free from state and federal taxes if used for qualified college expenses at an eligible college, university or career school in the nation.
